Robert Quinn to visit Cowboys

[Sydla]

He's awful against the run... Awful.

He had 635 snaps for the Dolphins in 2018 and had 6 1/2 sacks. That's OK but not worth $6.5 mil when combined with his ****** performance vs the run.

6.5MM for an edge rusher is cheap in today’s game. Guys like Jabaal Sheard got 8.5MM and he’s at best a similar type edge player.

Didn't do much in Miami the first 9 games.

Had a scathing article written on him by the Herald in the end of October.

Then something clicked the last 7 games, picking up 5.5 sacks in 7 games, only going two games out of seven without a sack.

Miami did play a 4-3 last year, but a wide 9 variation.

Well that's perfect
He can show up when D Law does his yearly Houdini routine in November and December

We could pair him up with DLaw. They seem to complete each other.

I think $6.5 mil plus a draft pick is too pricey.

Marinelli likes guys who can play a competent run defense from DE... And we've seen him sit guys that couldn't.

Quinn is awful at run defense. Can't see it being a good match.

 

[Alexander]

Yeah, strike this.

The signing of Kerry Hyder should end all discussion on whether we need a DE.

[ClappingCarrot]

Trader Jerry on the move again!

 

[JustDezIt]

 

[Parcells4Life]

I like it! Will be better than any rookie at RE in year 1.

 

[jwooten15]

We could do worse. Trade a 4th to the Dolphins and have them pay $6-7 million of his remaining contract

 

[Sydla]

I am on board with this but it better be for a late round pick.

 

[Future]

I'm fine as long as this is a late-round pick AND they don't let it influence their draft. They shouldn't pass on a DL because they think Quinn is going to give them anything.

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

Couple years ago he was regarded as one of the better DEs in the league

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

This is a move I’d love a true RDE.

 

[John813]

If we can get the second half of 2018 Quinn it can be a good trade, depending on what pick is moved.

Possible upgrade at RDE with no loss of comp pick and no forced pick in the draft to upgrade the hole RG made again

 

[RamziD]

Hope it’s for a pick next year, unless it’s our 7th this year. I don’t want to give up a 5th or more for what could be a 1 year rental.

 

[CowboyJ70]

My head may explode from all this activity!

 

[AmericasTeam81]

Hopefully it’s a late round pick next year but if it’s this year then oh well I’d still do it.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

19 sack season while in STL. And he'd be a former first rounder re-tread.

Marinelli loves those.

 

[Carson]

I am on board with this but it better be for a late round pick.

This X 1000. If it’s for a 5th and swapping picks I’m ok with it. If it’s for anything higher I’d be very meh on it.

But he does fit a need and would slide into starting RE and Would mean DE is no longer a need.

Lawrence and Quinn start.

Armstrong, Taco, Hyder depth.

Crawford slides in
