[iceberg]

and finally a RB is taken.

Will McClay on the phone in the war room.....

Orton has been trade bait all day. Don't be surprised if he gets dealt at some point.

 

[30yrheel]

It's not.

Well then, debate over!

 

[Deep_South]

really, you still believe and buy into the BS that Jerry Jones spouts...he's a situational speed pass rusher....not an every down player... and jerry said, Claibourne was the next Dion Sanders. hows that working out...

I didn't say I believe it, I'm just reporting the news.

He also said we drafted Lawrence for need after RHG said yesterday that falling in love with a player and paying too much for him was to be avoided...

Why would a team trade for a guy that may retire?

 

[jazzcat22]

Norm said the Cowboys were in a bidding war with the Falcons to trade with the Commanders. Falcons wanted Lawrence also.

 

[ConstantReboot]

And Dallas needs four defensive linemen..

I know. I was all for getting defense in the 1st round but oh well. I guess this happens when you are pressured to fill a needed position.

 

[jnday]

actually i believe all the experts that so far love the pick. i listen to them MUCH more than people who hate anything jones does.

Turn the TV off. Listen to this board and you will learn much more. One expert said this 250lb guy played at 270lbs and that is who you trust?

hence, why we overpaid some. it would be nice for people to let details drive emotions from time to time, but that just isn't likely very often in these parts. that should also end the "he would have fallen!!!" angle.

 

[Chappy]

Any chance we can trade back into the 3rd round?

 

[jnday]

Well then, debate over!

No need to drag it out. Lol

except that's not what he said. he said he can play at that weight and many have said he will grow into his weight / position. but if you wanna wordsmith that around to your liking, have a nice day.

Well, that would explain why we probably gave up more than we would have liked.

No he said he could play at 270 and still keep his speed!

Considering that Jerry is a sucker in trades, hell yeah. They may not have a draft pick in next years draft though.

 

[DFWJC]

The way this is going, Jernigan and Crichton may both be there at 47.

Norm said the Cowboys were in a bidding war with the Falcons to trade with the Commanders. Falcons wanted Lawrence also.

yeah, they were going to take Lawrence

 

[cruz_aedo861]

thoughts on trading next years 2nd to 49ers for 2 3rds this year or something to that effect

 

[Sasquatch]

Bengals take Hill a year after Bernard?

 

[jnday]

No he said he could play at 270 and still keep his speed!

I think that is questionable considering that he is not that fast to begin with. That is 20-25lbs of additional weight to carry around.
