Wide Receiver Free Agents

[cowboyec]

I really like Shepherd. But he’s always hurt and he likely goes back to Ny on a one year deal. Campbell was my guy out of college … he will do well with a new scenery

i liked campbell alot at ohio st.
good player.

FA:
Payne
OBJ
vet CB (because I’m trading Diggs)

Resign:
Steele
Hankins
LVE (no more than reasonable 2 year deal)
Hilton (if cheap)
Fowler
McG if possible cost wise

Trade:
Diggs for rd 1 (take CB with that pick)
Tyron for rd 2 pick (take OT with that pick)

Why would you trade your young top corner for an unproven rookie??? How did trading up work for us with Claiborne??

 

[Sydla]

I'd like to:

- Get one of the better DTs in FA
- Bring in a vet RB like a Mostert
- Vet CB
- Vet WR
- Cut Elliott and Lewis

In the draft look OL, DL, WR and CB in those first 3 rounds. Then start looking for a TB in the 4th and 5th rounds (we should have a bunch of picks in that range).

 

[john van brocklin]

I didn’t even get to this part. Absolutely clueless. 2nd rounder for him llllol

Hey they could get a 2nd for Tyron!!!
I bet a team would offer their 2035 2nd
No problem!

Some are sour on Diggs because of his no tackle business decisions

1. We have to build a physical defense to get past Philly and SF and Diggs is a piece of tissue. We can never have a physical defense with him

2. He will hold out for max dollars around 22+ million and he is not worth it

3. Once he is signed he is untradeable because of the cap hit. He has one more tear on a cheap contract so someone else will give us a rd 1 pick this off season but not next year. Trade him, this is a deep draft for CB, take one with that pick

This is the time to trade him

Maybe it's just me but when I look at Philly and their weapons I think I'd rather have a guy who make plays covering their WRs than some physical CB.

I get the whole contract thing, that makes sense. But when I am looking at Philly, I want CBs that can cover and make plays in the passing game. For example, in that first Eagles game, when Brown was covered by Diggs, Brown could only muster two targets and one catch for 11 yards. I couldn't find stats for the 2nd game but I recall there was one big play where Diggs bit on a slant and Brown went upfield for a long catch.

 

[Calvin2Tony2Emmitt2Julius]

Can we stop with the silliness of getting rid of Diggs. Please

 

[Mr_437]

GM Jerry is already on the phone making things happen.

 

[Mr_437]

You're absolutely right, if Diggs isn't traded this offseason he will sign a mega deal with the Cowboys.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Diggs for rd 1 (take CB with that pick)

Hell bring Byron Jones back ........lol

 

[big dog cowboy]

This team has more holes to fill than they do draft picks.

That is true every year. This year isn't special.

Line backer???? Need 2 good ones minimum

 

[GMO415]

Good grief that list sucked.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

MUST FILL : HB, WR3, LG, 1T, MLB, OLB, CB, K. Those are the biggest needs. HB, 1T and MLB will likely not be a need as they will bring back Pollard, LVE and Hankins

I think the biggest ones that we have to get in the draft are HB, WE, LB, CB, and K. And maybe a QB to start finding the successor to Dak if available.

Tyron for rd 2 pick (take OT with that pick)

I like this a lot, especially Payne as he's my big target. I'd also tag Pollard just because we are going to need him for one more year. Tagging him, assuming we lose Zeke, means we can use a later draft pick on a RB. Assuming we keep both him and Zeke, that might buy us time until next year to address RB. I'd, as you suggest, then trade Diggs for at least a 1 and Tyron for probably a 3rd (his injury history would likely drop him to there). I'd then use my first two picks on a CB and OT. Then, I'd go WR in round 2. NT and Duggan with my 2 3rds (may be more depending on comp picks). Then, I'd go LB again, Guard, and then maybe RB.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

No problem!

I could see a 3rd, but definitely not a second. As for Diggs, I get the sense that he's going to be a hold out. He's not worth the money that he's going to be wanting. I'd trade him and try to get a rookie CB to replace him. Not to mention that I think we could squeeze out a first and a 3rd or 4th for him. Sometimes, getting more draft picks can be important.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Darius Slayton would be a good deep threat

I'd like for us to sign him. He'd be very solid.

I can see that
Problem is you can’t pay him and Payne and Parsons on defense and pay CD and your QB top dollar. Someone had to go
Who are the CBs on Philly and SF? They won by front 7 and safety play

Exactly, and Diggs is worth at least a 1st and a 3rd. I know it's a risk, but I'd rather trade him and try to get another CB than lose him for a comp 3rd. Especially if he does the Cowboys tradition of taking a holiday in Cabo.
