Throw in Dak and a couple of 1sts, so that our division leaders WFT dont get him. Something like the Rams did for Stafford so that 49ers dont get him.

Other option is get Brady on our team so that he doesnt distance himself from other teams in super bowl count. Since our ceiling would be NFC CG.

Speaking of which...

The Seahawks somehow manage to replace one top-10 quarterback with another. Jones gets a quarterback who has accomplished the only goal he cares about at this point. And Wilson gets to begin a new chapter of his career in the highest-profile gig in all of the NFL.

It's about as close to a win-win as deals like this get.

For all the Dak haters out there, there are very, very few ways in which this organization can get rid of Dak and still get better. Everybody wants to get rid of Dak, but nobody has a clue on what to do after getting rid of him. Getting Wilson is one of those very few ways to improve this team. It's a pipe dream, but just about every way to get better without Dak is a pipe dream.

I approve this message, especially if that rumor of a Dak $40 million asking price is close to accurate.

No.

With this owner and general manager, we need to assemble a 70s Steelers-like team if we expect to win the Super Bowl again.

No ONE player is going to right this ship unless he's of John Elway status and legend.

We need to keep our picks and build through the draft.

I am probably in the minority but I rather trade for Watson. He is younger and his contract is pretty reasonable.

Pay tons of draft capital to swap for a QB who's 8 years older and making the kind of money that everyone here INSISTS will cripple the team? Lol no.

Also just wait until Wilson starts demanding more money than the $38m a year he's due to make, because he will very soon.

I just don't understand any logic to this. Is Wilson better? Marginally....with a decline coming fast in his late 30's. Can he fix the terrible defense? No. The Cowboys are not 2020 Tampa Bay, with a loaded roster and just needing a decent QB.

Think before you post these ideas guys.

Most will pile on you for this bold move, but not this fan.
I applaud you for taking the bold approach, and not being scared to throw that first punch.
RW would instantly make CD a randy Moss, RW would survive and thrive and escalate this offense even without an OL,,, man is used to it.

Meh, it's February 14th. How many more threads do we need about pet cats the Cowboys will never draft or free agents they will never sign?

The chances of this happening are virtually nil and plenty of us know it.

I may be projecting, but I think Dak is asking to be overpaid or released. I could see him taking less to play for a better-run organization.

I’m not sure about that but I am thinking his and more importantly his agent’s asking price is becoming unreasonable.

If I can get Wilson for a reasonable overall cost, I would make the change. Wilson would be MVP level in this offense.

Put all remaining resources in defense and we may have something.

So what happens to the Dak haters if Dak moves on and Wilson comes here and fails, as where Dak wins a SB with another team?
Will they now become a Wilson hater and say trade him for Dak?
:lmao2:

But what happens, if Wilson wins us a SB and Dak doesn't get past a divisional game....works both ways to be fair...oh, the endless I told you so threads. :muttley:

Dont get the "trade Dak plus ????" trades people keep advocating. Dak is a FA next month - you cant trade a player you dont have the rights to.

If Dak is tagged, we'll end up footing the bill - nobody is taking on Dak + 37m.

Any trade for Wilson or any other QB will be picks.

He gains more leverage each day. At most, the Cowboys tag him one more time. A third tag would be cost-prohibitive. So either he gets what he wants or he's a free agent in 2022.

If Jerry and Stephen want to keep him then they screwed the pooch by letting it drag this long. I say the chances of them having a viable Plan B are not high. QB hasn't exactly been their area of expertise.
