Yesterday's game brought in a fresh perspective on Dallas's run D. They got away with not have a true NT last year because Ratliff is so hard to block he often forces the double team. However, it looks like Dallas needs a big body to clog those running lanes. Is there anyone out there worth trading for? Barber is a good running back, but I feel that Choice is a much better all around back. With Choice and Jones carrying the load, the running game won't suffer too much. However, if teams continue to run up the gut on Dallas, Ratliff could be in for a long season. Is there anyone out there worth bringing in??

Thats what I'm asking..Is there anyone out there worth bringing in?? I think the Pats would actually trade us Barber for Wilfork straight up, but the contract to get Wilfork would leave us anable to resign Ware.

If you make a habit of trading away good players you will find yourself sucking, especially good players that is not even in their prime yet.

It was only a matter of time before something REALLY stupid would be posted regarding the Defense. Ladies and gentlemen, that time has arrived.

We don't trade Barber that would be STUPID !!! Hes a great guy for late Game Clock burning and all it takes is one Felix Jones injury to wish Barber was back, so the answer is NO !!!

I'd prefer it if we keep Barber and draft a NT, allowing Ratliff to move outside.

I thought yesterdays problem versus the Tampa run was due to both ILBs having poor games. "IE" not filling the gaps they were supposed to, which is the premise of the 3-4.

We do need a big NT to clog the running lanes but I'm not trading away Barber. And to suggest that Choice is a better overall back is a little far fetched. Choice is a nice addition to the line up but he's no MArion Barber. Go back and watch the 07 season. HEART and SOUL of this offense!.
