OBJ courting is obvious what's going on

[shabazz]

Maybe but I don't know how much he would believe in their prospects to win anything with Jones.

If I'm him I want to go to Buffalo but he might not see that climate as an attractive place to call home. He says he's looking for a long term home.

……and pass up on an opportunity to receive pin point accurate passes from Rayne Dakota Prescott?. Nobody passes that up. It would cement his way to the HOF to end his career

I pointed my finger to the heavens after posting that.

he using Jerry like so many others. Cowboy name just gives him more bargaining power with the team he really wants to be on

 

[CowboyRoy]

Good lad, I agree.
But would it not be peachy keen if JERRY HAD SHUT HIS MOUTH AND NOT TELEGRAPHED TO OBJ HOW MUCH JERRY WANTSHIM????
How much money would it have saved the team and Jerry?

Thats what I am trying to say. Its a sell job at this point. They made their offer. He is trying to sell OBJ now. The guy gets to pick. In a unique situation.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Yeah that's not it.

Jerry is trying to convince him to come here. If it was just a matter of money, Jerry would have gotten it done already.

 

[CowboyRoy]

It’s all media driven… They keep asking the players and Jerry if you want him. ESPN is all over it.

Yah, but all the players are trying to sell it as well.

 

[CowboyRoy]

I don't know why everyone gets on Jones so much. He's not a bad QB, he just needs weapons. You see it with Tua and Hurts, neither are good passers.

Buffalo doesn't need OBJ. Green Bay and the Rams might be out of the playoff picture before OBJ is available, so that knocks them out. That leaves Tampa and NYG.

No, Jones just isnt very good. Watched him for years. Bad decisions, picks, misses throws. Not a great leader.

This is different. Jerry and the players are doing a big sell job. They are wooing him.

Dear chap, yes,,and yes.
But Jerry needs a tin of Shut your mouth!

I spat out me warm milk.
And some through me nostrils.

The Cowboys have made their offer. They are smartly and clearly not going to break the bank for a twice recently injured WR for half the season. And they are probably smartly holding out on not doing a long term deal.

So Jerry and everyone in Cowboys nation is clearly trying to woo him to take less money and join the Cowboys.

I believe so as well, Jerry wants OBJ to buy into the player love, and put the money as a non critical factor.

As long as Jerry is still breathing, that is not going to happen.

he's using Jerry and the Cowboy name to get more money from the team he really wants to sign with. Players keep doing this and Jerry keeps falling for it

You have zero evidence to support this claim.

The idea that they came up with a number, for a guy coming back from an ACL, without even checking him out really doesn't add up.

i’m thinking 49ers. settle in cali.. great weather. grass field….

It doesn't work like that. These guys have a dollar figure in mind well before Jerry shoots off his pie hole. I don't think OBJ will take less from a team that's "quiet".

It’s clear Jerry is interested

Thanks for setting me straight. You seem to know the innard workings of the NFL.

 

[SixFiveCowboy]

OBJ is a free agent and is clear to sign with anyone if he wanted to be with Dallas he'd be signed already this is clearly posturing for both sides. I do think he has interest in Dallas based on our current position in the NFC, but I honestly think his representation is pushing him to hold on to see where the the bidding is going to go. I say the longer he remains unsigned the less likely he ends up in Dallas.

 

[FlagRunner80]

He would clearly help this team towards the end of the season and come playoffs, he’s not a cancer either. His agent is drumming up interest to raise his price like any good agent/player would. Hopefully Jerry pulls a deon and signs him.
