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

[strollinruss]

Until last year, McFadden was one injury after another and his ypg was goind down drastically. He got beaten out by undrafted rookies.

That's why only Dallas was interested. Desperation called.

He was playing behind a crap line with less than subpar QBs. It was him or nothing, no one excels in those situations.

If it took even that long.

He should be careful in warm ups !!!!!!!!!!

 

[dallasdave]

don't get me started on the great Dunbar...just remember he has NEVER scored a SINGLE TD for us.

 

[big dog cowboy]

If we could get a 5th I'd trade him in a heart beat. 4th even faster.

But I really don't think his value is any more than a 6th.

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.

What's not correct? You said pretty much what I said

 

[Irvin88_4life]

except he didn't and couldn't do it.......he also would have led the league in TDs if he scored 9 more....instead he finished 40th

Boom.....but somehow McFadden's 3 TDs on the season is so special

Actually, no. The other backs in Oakland were doing pretty well. Far better than McFadden, which is why he was benched.

Keith Smith will make the squad because they need someone to cut and resign 30 times during the season.

Its a more important role then people think

THe player is traded and has to meet certain milestones in order for the team that gets him to have to pay a draft pick.

Thanks.

McFadden would have led the league in rushing last year if he played 16 games. I've never seen a bunch of people that wanted to get rid of a valuable offensive weapon for peanuts.
There is a roll for McFadden on this team regardless if Zeke and Morris are here.

To many people here who can't remember last season when McFadden performed very well on an offense that couldn't pass the ball at all.

I guess they fell in love with Darius Jackson and are ignoring that McFadden is a well rounded back in almost every aspect of the game.

Not to mention he will be able to block far better than super rookie Zeke. With a backup or Romo that's always a plus.

Doesn't matter. KJJ said he only averaged 4.4 YPC against Miami so he sucks.

 

[WoodysGirl]

Well, isn't this interesting??

 

[Clove]

What a good problem to have, this should be interesting.

 

[Fletch]

Well, isn't this interesting??

Indeed. Can we get a fourth rounder at least if we pull the trigger?

 

[Word Mofo]

We gotta do this. I don't care what it's for, but DMC doesn't fit our system

 

[Manwiththeplan]

Please deal him, not because I don't like him, because I do, but because he won't be the difference between a great/good, good/average or average/bad season.

 

[ElGatoGrande]

I'd certainly take a fourth,,, those draft picks are mother's milk for a rebuilding team.

 

[CapnB]

Mike Fisher said team is gonna keep him. I figure teams are offering late round conditional pick. And the boys figure they are better off letting him sit on the bench here

Ezekiel Elliott made his preseason debut for the Cowboys last week and the results were in line with what the team hoped to see when they drafted Elliott fourth overall in April. The Cowboys had used Alfred Morris as their lead back in the first two preseason games and he also looked good running behind…http://youwillnotrackme2.net/b.gif?host=profootballtalk.nbcsports.com&blog=&post=2408321&subd=nbcprofootballtalk&ref=&feed=1

You mean we are getting calls about him and NOT Darius Jackson?
