Rumor trade - from the Ranch...

[whcarm]

Man, they didn't have any picks to trade up with. Did they just give up next year's first round pick to move up?

They had a ton of second day picks.

They had a ton of second day picks.

it was thier 1st day pick this year 6th this year and 2nd next year.

 

[whcarm]

All their fifth, sixth and seventh round picks put together wouldn't be enough for them to move up as far as they did. They had to have given up some pick from next year. I would imagine at least a second round pick.

 

[DallasKen]

Wow they gave up a second round next year for Rocky Macintosh? lmao I think that's a horrible trade for the skins.

Potential Trade May Be on the Table
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do not have this confirmed yet but here it is:

Cowboys trade Julius Jones and mid-round pick to Pittsburgh for Santonio Holmes.

The trade, according to this source, is being held up until the Steelers can see who is available at one of the Cowboys' later picks ... not sure which one.

Take it for what it's worth.

So they gave up two seconds and a sixth round pick to move up this year to pick a guy that probably would have been available when they picked. Has anyone seen McIntosh ranked higher than the 10th ranked OLB?

 

[zrinkill]

that would be a dumb trade

 

[CanadaBoys]

very dumb....

 

[The30YardSlant]

Wow, what a steal that would be....

 

[kingwhicker]

That sucks so bad I don't want to think about it.

Goss has him ranked as the 39th best player on his Top 100 List.

 

[silver]

not if you get lendale white at 49

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

They Traded picks #53, #189 and a Second round pick for Jets #35 pick.

Pick Roger McIntosh LB Miami who was projected as a 4th round pick per SI.

 

[Tobal]

That makes no sense

 

[Westcoasthabsfan]

I agree dumb trade

 

[Murph80]

Rocky is a nice player but he is no 2nd rounder and is definitly not worth trading up and giving a 2nd and 6th for. WOW

 

[kingwhicker]

Goss has him ranked as the 39th best player on his Top 100 List.

Most of the ones I've seen have him in the high 70s, but to each his own.

 

[big dog cowboy]

stupid trade. rumor confirmed or unconfirmed? link?

 

[kingwhicker]

not if you get lendale white at 49

Well, now that changes things.
