The Vikings are reportedly dead last in the NFL running the football. Granted trading him makes the Vikings more dangerous to us at playoff time, but if the compensation is right, trade McFaden after week 6.

They look they can cruise for a while "as is"... but no running game in playoffs = early off season.

We will keep Dmac with Dunbars injury now. Sunday we only had 2 RB'S dress.


No, we have Jackson. DMac is held by us for insurance or trade purposes only. He was the 4th leading rusher last year. He has value to a team that needs him and remains in contention.

I am being told to ignore the yardage and the fact that he was the entire offense last year because he couldnt get through an 11 man box in the red zone. DMC sucks

then we had the draft that changes the franchise forever.......old spare parts are scrapped
You know..in Fantasy Football maybe..

but what we have is a sentimental Arkansas Razorback owner who is loyal to players like Romo who play for him.

DMAC was the only respectable offensive player other than the OL and Witten..

who performed.

He'll be a Cowboy as long as he is productive and under contract.

His salary isn't needed..we have guys coming back of suspension.

Know thy team, bro.

Compensation is right? NO way they giving us anything higher than a 4th rounder. I say no. Let them suffer.

ARK means nothing and who cares what he did last year during meaningless games.....he got himself hurt and got replaced.....see ya......we only kept him because he doesn't count against the roster and he isn't getting paid for a non-football injury

And with our potent tandem of Zeke/Morris we do not.
If we can get a 3rd rounder for McFadden, mates, I'd be over the moon!

I want to cut him for the salary cap space, around 1m

if anyone wants to trade anything for him I will take it.......I just don't see it

We get offered a draft pick I'd take it. We're good with Zeke, Morris & Jackson.

DMac DID end up 4th in the league running the ball. There's tread left on those tires.

D'acorde, mon amis. On the unlikelihood.
As to cap space, 1mil is chump change in today's NFL, matey.

Keep in mind you aren't going to find a running back on the trade market who is good, who is also expendable to the team that has him on the roster.

Very true! Man, I like that guy and he MANNED the **** out for us last year, he deserves a little luv/affection from this organization!
He also deserves a place to play/GET PAID.

That's right I keep forgetting about the 'jackson',, he's the cat that has the TONY DORSET flutter/ stutter step.
