Rapoport talking about possible Murray may return to Dallas

[baltcowboy]

Bring the band back together.

I personally think it is just Rapoport looking to get clicks. It worked, I clicked on it.

All it is. Doubt they release with all that guaranteed money

 

[Zimmy Lives]

isn't this the same guy that swears there really is an incriminating video of Dez in a Walmart parking lot?

 

[Aikmaniac]

This is just trolling Cowboys fans to click. Nothing of substance in that article. Everything mentioned was well-known.

 

[Beast_from_East]

Is it really financially viable for them to trade him or release him...if not...there is your answer.

13 mill cap hit to trade or release Murray

Obviously any trade scenario would involve a reworked contract

No, that was Florio of PFT. But Rapoport does throw out alot of stuff that never happens.

 

[erod]

This is nonsense, but this thread still allows us to look up, take a deep breath, and cackle like maniacs at what a hopeless mess the Eagles are.

Dallas had a bad season. Philly is in for a bad decade.

 

[Junglist]

Ha. I'm looking at Rapaport's address and cell phone number right now. Should I violate HIPAA and post it? Just kidding. I like my job.

 

[Daillest88]

id liek to have him back jsut because of the chemistry he has here with dez and romo

Dez obviously fell for it because he is publicly calling for a reunion.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Forget Murray. This team needs to look towards the future. Both at QB and RB.

It would be nice, but we are not winning the SB any time soon. Try to envision the Cowboys with Romo gone. Which will be in 2 or 3 years. Holding onto this ray of hope that we can still win one with Romo at QB is really just a pipe dream. Its what keeps Jerry making those same tired mistakes every year.

Now if this defense was a top 3 defense, that might be different. But we need to revamp most of the defense, so that is not a reality.

 

[lostar2009]

Let's say we trade for him. Doesn't all his guarantee money stay with Philly leaving only salary? If this is the case I will do it.

 

[sideon]

It'd be hilarious if he signed with the Raiders since they offered him the most $$$ when he was a FA.

They have their own Murray

I hate when people think like this, no offense to you, but football is so unpredictable. I feel better about this team than the 2013 team, I really thought we were a lost cause then. Carolina fans would've thought you were hysterical if you told them they would've had a 15-1 Super Bowl season 10 games into last year.

As far as the defense goes, you can make a strong case that this defense is a better unit than the 2013 Broncos. They rebuilt that defense into a damn good unit in one offseason. I'm not saying we can do that but it can be done.

Mcfadden was 4th in the league in rushing this year and didn't start for almost a month of the season, correct?


We're paying him around a million a year if that vs Murray getting 7 or 8 mill?

Come on.. He's not coming back here.

4th in the league vs. 1st in the league does not sound like a huge gap, but 1,800 vs. 1,000 is considerable. But more importantly, Murray scored 10 more TDs than McFadden behind this Cowboys' OL. Murray even scored more TDs as the Eagles 3rd string RB in 2016 than McFadden did as Cowboys' 1st string RB (6 vs. 3).

And for those who knock Murray on not breaking long runs, Murray's longest run in 2016 was longer (54 yards) than McFadden's (50 yards). Murray even scored a TD on that run, while McFadden did not. McFadden has not had a run over 30 yards since 2012. Murray has had a run of 43 yards or more every year in his career. Murray averages a longest run of over 57 yards for his career (5 years) while McFadden averages a longest run of just under 47 yards (8 years).

true. but Murray also had a healthy Dez and Healthy Romo. and mcfadden was in football hell in oakland. The way i see it is we have these 2 together and that would be one hell of a 1-2 punch

It would probably be about as successful as when Duane Thomas came back.
