What would you give up for Payton?

I was reading an "article" that suggested that NO wouldn't necessarily look to fire Payton, but would be interested in "trading" him, if the price was right. I understand that Payton has a "change of control" clause, that let's him out of his contract if Benson isn't in charge, but if he stays, that clause doesn't come into play. If you're a proponent of trying to bring in Payton to replace Garrett, what would you be willing to give?

Let me add that I don't think Garrett will be let go. Just examining a hypothetical.

A bag of chips and Dexter Coakly. Sounds about even. Heck, throw in a bottle of JWB, Jerry can afford it.

In all seriousness I'd give up a 3rd or maybe even a 2nd for the right coach. QB and coach are the two biggest factors when it comes to a team's success in this league. We've seen it over and over again where a team that was going nowhere fast was turned around by the right coaching hire.

Jerry's biggest failure is his inability to take the coaching position seriously.

Well, he did say 499 coaches could lead the Cowboys to the Super Bowl (or something like that).

A conditional 7th.

The same guy who brought in our Rob Ryan castoff and people want to give up draft pics for him?

If I thought he could end up with a division rival, I would strongly consider giving up draft picks. There is nobody in the draft that could add as much to this team as he would.

I don't know, what do you think NO will give us to take the guy off their hands?? No way in hell do I give them anything for that guy.
