Trade Deadline

[NOVA Cowboy]

The trade deadline is tomorrow. To me, our clear (and perhaps only) weakness is the running game. I would like to know do most people on this forum think it is Houk's fault, or is it a lack of personnell. That said, I would like to offer a couple of trade scenarios and get everyone's opinion. I am sure that none of these will happen.

Johnathan Stewart - 3rd - conditional 2nd round2012
Pierre Thomas - 4th round 2012
Mike Tolbert - 2nd round 2012

Thoughts????

The only thing that will make us better is getting a good OG.

I think our best chance to is to make a deal with some team in the Luck sweepstakes who is hoping to make their team weaker. We'll give them Arkin plus a 3rd rounder for an above average OG who fits in with the scheme Garrett is trying to implement. If the guy is trending towards Pro Bowl play and reasonably young I'd up the pick to a 2nd rounder.

Stewart is a much better RB than the other two in my opinion.

I'd love to have him.

Do you have anybody in mind??

We need to work on our run blocking schemes. Murray can handle the load, he is physical and has succeeded all throughout college. He is ready fort the big stage and Jonathan Stewart is more of a 3rd down passing back then a #1 IMO.

You could get Adrian Peterson, Matt Forte, Ray Rice, or Darren McFadden and they would all suck behind our NON-BLOCKING offensive line.

I have no idea who might be available but I'd look at all the teams with 0 wins and see if they want to deal with us.

Maybe Carey from Miami?

Maybe I don't know anything about football, which is probably true. But, wasn't Houck our O-line coach during the 91-95 run? And then he was re-hired later, but did not have the same success, which is kind of hard to do without Emmitt Smith. If I am correct, this is his 3rd stint in Dallas. So is our O-line talent not good enough? It seems that everyone on this board was ready to crown them after the skins game?

there young for petesake. We have good young guards on this team, but htey need to get stronger and experienced. They are getting baptised by fire right now. they bust their rears, work and study hard, and we will have to live with the growth process. Now if we get a shot at a bluechip center or guard in next yers draft, DO IT! to top it off they didnt have a real offseason because of the lockout. prossman
