News: PFT: Report: Cowboys getting calls about Darren McFadden

[DallasCowboys2080]

Seahawks drafted 60 running backs in the draft plus still have Michael and Rawls

hard to believe anyone is deeper than the cowboys at RB. but ok. I don't keep up with the seahawks so i concede but still hard to believe. Cowboys depth at any position is an issue but at RB is where I know we have depth if any.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

No we need 3 backs !!!

You're right 3 backs that can tote the ball all game. McFadden and Jackson can. Dunbar can't

 

[MonsterD]

I would take a stale doughnut for him

 

[Nightman]

My point exactly.....reliable running backs. Dunbar couldn't make it all game running the ball. He is a specialist with injury history. RSmith might not even make the roster, KSmith is far ahead

I only like RSmith because he could fill in at TB in a pinch.....I don't think KSmith could

Didn't say they were deeper, I said how many running backs they have on the roster

I agree but KSMITH excels on special teams and can play LB

Keith has also looked better running then Rod

Totally agree !!! Dunbar is only good for so many snaps, then he gets hurt !!!

 

[reddyuta]

He is getting zero carries here behind Morris and Zeke whether we keep him or not, heck he might not be active.

 

[pacy]

if its the seahawks we could use some folks on their 2nd string defensive line or secondary.

The dark ages. 1997-present. Change it to the Dak ages. 2016 -

 

[Kaiser]

DAL really wants to keep him, though.

Translation: Dallas wants more than a conditional pick.

Unless Zeke tweaks that hammy, then he will. Unless someone's offering a 4th, I keep him for depth.

I think my preferences would be:

1 - Trade for a 5th or higher
2 - Put him on PUP and reevaluate in six games
3 - Keep him on the active roster

Then again it would be funny if we got a good draft pick in trade, just to see one particular poster here stroke out.

 

[jazzcat22]

on the mega thread of DMC "dislikers" that is about to blow up.
Will it be for not, and he won't be traded....

That is not correct. KSmith is likely to make the squad since he could be used as a LB if one was needed and he
is a special teams demon. Rod Smith is in the tub and likely not to make this team. Garrett loves him some KSmith.

most likely they keep him on the NFI list since he hasn't practiced yet....even though they can withhold pay while on the NFI, I seriously doubt they go that route....they will pay him just as a thanks for last year....which is a horrible idea

 

[YosemiteSam]

SOLD! what are they giving us?

$20,000,000,000 in debt.

I think the best fit by far is trading him for a draft pick. It will be interesting to see what it is if things go that route.

A ham sandwich...and I don't eat pork, so...back to the drawing board.

Yep, from what broaddus said, organization loves him.

I would take a pick in a heartbeat..... we don't need any 29 year backup RBs
