Patrick Robinson "expected to sign" Per Rapoport

[Plankton]

It doesn't take PFF to see that Robinson is probably no worse than Carr's equal at a fraction of the cost.

Not sure how anyone could really have an issue with this signing if it comes.

Not to mention he is younger, and potentially ascending, since he was a far better player in San Diego than he ever was in New Orleans.

Wasn't health a factor?

Somewhat, especially in his rookie season and in 2013, but he was very inconsistent. Dez absolutely lit him up in Dallas in 2012.

Dez tends to do that to a lot of CBs.

Stephen, Jerry and Red are in Indy for the owners meetings. Probably what the hold up is.

I just looked up who his agent is, he is pretty inexperienced, only eight negotiated contracts in total. That also could be a problem along with the Joneses and Garrett trying to handle over the phone.

Spaulding's running things at Valley Ranch right now, he drives a hard bargain.

Honestly this would not be surprising to see them in Indy....................... since the owners meetings are in Boca Raton, FL.

I'd feel slightly better about it if that is truly the case, but even then, I don't have a lot of excitement or faith in Morris being any sort of an answer.

FWIW, I argue with Jordon Ross from Cowboys.com constantly on Twitter about not taking a rb at 4. Ross is all in on the Boys taking Elliot at 4, while I argue there is no value selecting a rb that high.

 

[Nightman]

He passed the eyeball test as well tho

Plus he isn't allergic to the football. 10 INTs in 4 years.

So you wouldn't take Emmitt at 4?

You've got company!

And it's not because Elliott isn't a good player, it's because there is better value to be had.

Post of the day! Voting polls have closed!

But of course. It's called priorities. They're probably making Morris wait out in the parking lot.

Has there been any confirmation where Robinson and/or Morris met with Jerry over contract talks? Whataburger, Taco Bueno?

Prior to knowing what we know about Smith, nope.

You have the benefit of hindsight.

It was also a completely different time with no salary cap and a more run oriented league.

IF we can sign Morris AND Robinson, suddenly, blokes of the gridiron, we are major players in FA. Just last week were were major players among the journeymen FA class of 2016.

These two additions will change EVERYTHING!
Again, if we can sign both of them, we go from a 2 in FA to an 8, just like that. I feel so good about the sudden change of events that I can eat 3 scones with boysenberry and tea!

I thought Farmers Branch folk ate like steak and stuff.

the question is that Robinson might not be enough of a signing to replace Carr. Most of Robinson best play has come from slot. If anything it pushes Scandrick outside and then Dallas gets to pick their poison with Mo or Carr opposite Scandrick. I would try to get Carr to accept pay cut and keep him on team in case Mo gets hurt.

Y'all crack me up with this stuff. Enough with the negative source-media garbage. Everyone out there saying it's done. None of them are spot on all the time, but if everyone out there is saying its done then stop.

What's up with the jealous attitudes about who gets to say something first about a signing?
#maturity

it goes far beyond a signing for me, personally.

 

[jjktkk]

You already have Mitchell and Olatoye who are probably 4-5. So maybe a mid to late rd pick for depth and ST.

IMO, these two played well late, last season, and are pretty solid 4th and 5th corners, if there is such a thing as solid 4th and 5th corners.

Everyone is talking about "value" but I don't think they really understand what that means.

Emmitt at 4 is worth every penny. Emmitt at 1 is worth every penny.

Any HoF RB is worth a top pick.

If EE is a Pro Bowler at 4 it is a value success.
