Trade Deadline?

TXCowboyVol · Oct 20, 2014

You think we'll remain quiet? Jared Allen possibly for a 5th? Chris Conte or Bernard Pollard would be welcome additions to our S rotation as well for a late rd pick...thoughts?

I havent seen the Vikes play this year. Is Allen playing good? Me thinks we wait for Lawrence from IR instead.

He's with the Bears now and has 1.5 sacks.

He signed with the Bears and yes, doing a solid job.

1.5 sacks is a bit shabby considering Ware has 7 so far. I'd say we pass on him, plus we play the Bears in december, doubt they would trade him to us.

Pollard is on IR

Wonder if Denver would trade Ware?

A trade for Allen would only be renting him for the rest of the season. His base salary won't be much next year, but he will get a huge roster bonus.

Chicago Bears DE Jared Allen's Playing Time Reduced?

Jared Allen has struggled in his first season with the Chicago Bears. Through the first seven games of the Bears’ 2014 season, Allen has a total of 24 tackles to go along with 1.5 sacks. Those are not the numbers the Bears were expecting when the team signed Allen this off-season, and on Sunday, Bears’ head coach Marc Trestman may have sent a message to Allen.

Kevin Fishbain posted the Bears’ defensive snap count on twitter on Monday morning, and the list reveals that Allen played in only 45 of the 70 total defensive plays for the Bears on Sunday.

Not to mention, he's a known Cowboys hater. He's said so himself. He can't stand the Cowboys.

If i was Jerry, I would do it. Carpe Diem!

Seriously, Allen could have a resurgence with this team. But even a guy who hasn't produced but has upside, a former blue chipper like Ro McClain, who has busted with current team for whatever reason. Marinelli can really coach em up.

MichaelWinicki · Oct 20, 2014

Pass on Allen.

He wasn't very good last year and hasn't been very good this year.

Crad|e · Oct 20, 2014

maybe we should shop tyron smith around a little couldn't hurt? I guess I would take a 4th rounder maybe 5th just depends on his health at this point.

Crad|e · Oct 20, 2014

Maybe use that 4th rounder to get Ware or JJ Watt I think probably

Leadbelly · Oct 20, 2014

Maybe talk to the Jets about Quinton Coples. That staff is as good as gone. He's currently playing out of position at OLB and it's not working out. Was 6-6/290 but dropped down to 265. Didn't fit their plans for him as a 5-tech but got to the passer a little his previous two years. Still has 2 yrs on contract at $1.2m and $1.5m. Maybe a 2nd and Kyle Wilber.

If not him, maybe Calvin Pace as a situational rusher. Has 3.5 sacks this year, 10 last year. Signed 2yr contract for $5m in March. Likely costs us a 3rd day pick.

I was hoping for a Aldon Smith trade but I don't think that would happen. We need a better pass rush. The Cowboys are putting their faith in the hands of a rookie, who hasn't played a game in the NFL yet! We need pass rushing help now and I mean right now!!!!!

Idgit · Oct 20, 2014

I'd just as soon sit tight with Demarcus Lawrence, thanks.

Dion Jordan - Miami Dolphins - Coming back from a suspension and plays behind 2 good DE's, 4-3 Speed rushing DE, 3-4 OLB
Quinton Coples - NY Jets - Just got benched and is no longer a starting OLB. Naturally a 4-3 DE
Da'Quan Bowers - Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Natural 4-3 DE, rumors he may get cut prior to the start of the season.

What you think you have to give up for any of these guys?

Chris Conte lol.

Good teams don't make those kind of trades. That is a NY Jets type move.

StevenOtero · Oct 20, 2014

Chris Conte is horribad, just ask Witten about that so called Safety. The hell is wrong with you?
