Trade deadline is life or death

[eromeopolk]

So far I think most of us have the feeling that our Cowboys are about average to slightly above average so far. We have a 4-2 record, but those two tough losses have a lot of us concerned.

Many sources so far online saying Dallas is expected to be getting busy in this trade deadline coming up. Thats good because this is our lifeline.

With a less than stellar running game and a questionable WR crew there’s plenty of work to be done to get us over that plateau.

Who do y’all want to pick up?

If you are waiting for Jerry Dumbo GM Jones to be blessed with another Amari Cooper trade, go look at what occurred before and after. Life or Death...You gonna need 100 black coffins.

I would trade Schoon for a 2nd

I'll bet you would!

Problem is....he had 4th or 5th rd talent 6 months ago in the Draft....and has done nothing to change that perception since.

People dont want our mistakes

Unless the Cowboys go "all Rams" and give up their draft next year how can they make a trade anyway?

They are already down to four picks next year- 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 7th round.

4th went to SF for Trey Lance
5th went to KC to complete the draft trade up for (wait for it) Eric Scott
6th went to Houston to complete the Brandon Cooks trade

That's freaking depressing

Davante Adams or Mike Evans would work for me. We need weapons bad.

Since when are the receivers questionable?

Ertz is a nobody in 2023

Oh no doubt he’s not great. But he is reliable and I feel the TEs are a year away from taking that next step

 

[VaqueroTD]

If it's life or death, you might as well say your good-byes now because the Jones Boys are notoriously slow on moves like this with Stephen taking over. Best you can hope for is wildcatter Jerry bring back some of his old juices (which I'm not sure I miss either) to the phones. You never know, that Trey Lance move probably has the old man feeling saucy again.

 

[Kellsbells]

We need to find this year’s Christian McCaffrey, someone who comes in and lights everyone up.

We got plenty of weapons already, just not being used properly is all.

I don't see much difference between him and the guys we have. I don't see the upgrade

 

[Praxit]

I trade you Dexter Coakley and a 4th for Surtain.

naw, Bobby Carpenter and 3rd. ..

I don't think we have a player issue. we have an offensive scheme issue. the only trade should be on the defensive side as we are still suspect to run. pass rush without Parsons is iffy

Future vs. Present. Trading away your picks benefits the current season, but harms your future. It's a seductive idea, but is this team one player away from the promised land? Those draft picks represent young players who are CHEAP, and for years to come. This is how you beat the cap.

NFL midseason trades are rare. Very different than other sports.

 

[Coogiguy03]

That’ll likely cost you multiple 1s

and a long term deal

The Dallas FO shops the bargain bin for FAs, so there is no way they are going to part with draft picks to make a trade for anybody.

That second round pick on a TE instead of OL is hurting Dallas; so no need to get another RB given the state of the run game and shaky, inconsistent OL play.

Need a LB who is a thumper and plays the run like a fiend; hoping that the LB Dallas picked up as FA will get some playing time next week. Dallas needs a physical presence at the LB level like SF possesses. I also think the loss of LVE is understated as he was calling the defensive plays and adjustments and getting everybody lined up.

We got one in Evans. Can’t imagine he fell off that much in a season as he played 17 games last year with a career high in tackles

 

[charron]

Can you get Connor and a 7th for a 6th round pick?

And its a terrible year to be down draft picks, since the draft is so stacked.

Dallas isn't trading for anyone.....

Fans said that this summer and somehow we end up with Gilmore and Cooks......
