Trade Winds

[Galian Beast]

Jerry is talking about opening up the roster spot for moves we're making this week.

He was asked if we had plans for the roster spot and he said yes but that he couldn't talk about it yet because a 3rd party was involved.

I take this to mean that we're trying to make a trade with another team.

It sure sounds like that. Must be for draft picks.
It has to be on the offensive line.
Or a kicker to handle just FG duties.
But my money would be on offensive line.
Hopefully who ever it is they are a tough SOB with the kind of nasty we need up front.

I really hope this ISNT Merriman

I doubt it's Merriman. Where are you guys hearing this from Jones at?

Jerry Jones show on dc.com

He specifically said they have plans to fill the roster spot this week that cutting hamlin left open. He said thats why they cut hamlin. And he also said something is in the works but he cant announce it since their is a 3rd party involved.

They wouldn't have to trade anything for Merriman, he's going to be released....

 

[Galian Beast]

They dont' have to trade anything for Merriman, he's going to be released....

I believe he has already been released, my point was that I hope the roster move isn't signing him.

 

[Galian Beast]

researching this, it isn't him. he is on ir, and wont be released until after he is healthy.

i get nervous when Jerry talks in season trades.

 

[casmith07]

We are not trading for Logan Mankins.

 

[JohnsKey19]

Hmmm...it'll be interesting to see where they feel they need help more, OG or FS?

Me 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[tupperware]

Well I mean really who could it be? I mean it has to be OL, FS or K. I honestly don't think it's K, which leaves OL and FS. I'm thinking it's OL.

The NFLPA told Mankins he had to report by this week to gain free agency status next season. The patriots dont want a guy reporting just to go through the motions disgruntled while he waits on free agency so he can walk away for nothing. It isnt that far fetched of an idea really.

I have no idea if its Mankins. But it would make sense if i am the patriots to move him. They obviously are never going to pay him so why not?
And since he can leave anyway at the end of the season his value isnt that high right now.

Just an idea.

 

[CanuckCowboysFan]

Meriweather for a 3rd.

 

[Hoofbite]

Likely not going to trade with ourselves.

Talking about trading rarely excludes 3rd parties. If ever.

 

[ShiningStar]

I hope its not for draft picks and 1 player is not sending us to teh SB, we said goodbye to that when we took Lee and left safeties and better Oline men on the board.

We have to deal with what we gambled on and the gamble wont pay off.
