This is brilliant. And there goes Quinn.

[jthig32]

Holy hell, that's a freaking steal of a trade, barring a miraculous turnaround by Cleveland.

[sike]

Brady and Joe....way to go Cle.

genius move for the boys...they would have to have been nuts to not do this...but what can we get at 36?

I thought that was assumed (the trading down part). No WAY we were going to trade down from the first round to the third.

[ames7]

What a great trade. Great job, management!

[Darth Ape]

great trade! That's a rape with a facial!

[sike]

amazing call 5-0.

I still hate you.

Wow dude, nice call.

So, you guys that are way more in tune than I am, what are we looking at at 36? Is Blalock still there? Do we even have any interest in him?

For a first next year? I would have.

blalock should definitely be there but i think the boys like grubbs more and he might be there too.

I would have still done it if it was this years 3 as originally reported. We could have the first pick in the draft next year.

[Darth Ape]

This is just like the JP Losman trade from three years ago

Yeah, but that first rounder next year could be a top 5 pick. Hell, with as bad as the Browns are, that may be the top pick in the draft. They still have no receivers or a running back so they aren't turning around that quickly. And their second that we just obtained is an early second. This is a really good trade for Dallas, even though it won't pay off until next year.

[ames7]

It sounds so good being announced...

...except Cleveland is worse than Buffalo was.

I think this will be an even better trade. The Bills turned into a pretty good team the next year. I don't see that happening to Cleveland next year.

FWIW, teams generally view a #1 next year like a #2 this year.

It's a much nicer looking thing than the Julius Jones/Spears parlay because of how bad Cleveland might be. Then again, I remember thinking the Bills were going to be worse than they ended up being...

[Five-ofan]

hell im already looking to next year. Hrmmmm darren mcfadden? probably not but hes the first guy that pops into my head.

I know. I love it. Particularly since this may FORCE us into getting a guy like Blaylock (hope, hope) rather than a safety or corner or a receiver who may not have panned out.

Sounds good to me. Blalock would be a solid addition to a team that needs all the offensive linemen it can get.

[chumdawg]

Boy, Reggie Nelson better pan out for Jax (assuming they were offered the same deal by Cleveland).

[Murphy3]

Originally, when I thoguht it was a three, I wasn't nearly as thrilled.. thought it was a good trade but not brilliant.. but, getting a two out of it is nothing short of sheer greatness. They should still be able to draft a 1st round calibre receiver...

[Murphy3]

damn.. Blalock's error just cost the Rangers a win in 9 innings.

[FINtastic]

The Ticket is saying the Cowboys phone is ringing off the hook right now. Possibilty of the Cowboys trading up to the tail end of the first round? Personally, I think I'm fine with the 36th pick right now.

[Darth Ape]

I have my eye on Dwayne Jarrett now.

It seems like the Cowboys are the only good thing going in metroplex sports this weekend.

Yea but you have to consider the team don't you? You don't take the 3 if you're dealing with the Pats or the Colts, but the 3rd worse team in the leage...I take that 3rd and next years 1st every day.

[Murphy3]

Don't forget about the Desperados

[ames7]

I was thinking about the fun we're gonna have cheering against CLE this year...

Aw, there goes Bowe.

[chumdawg]

I like the idea of moving up a few spaces if they have a clear favorite or if all their favorite guys start disappearing. Give a fifth and a sixth to move up a few spots, maybe.

I expect the pick to be somewhere around the 8-12 range

[Five-ofan]

if the chiefs offered this deal to any of the last 5 or so picks they were idiots for passing it up. if they didnt i would like to say thank you for helping the cowboys.

[Chicken Diavlo]

Yeah... I was thinking Dwayne Jarrett too.

[jthig32]

George Dunham just reported that they've received word that the Cowboys are working hard to get back into the first round.

i think hes talking about this year.

honestly what i think we are going to do with that pick next year, is get a replacement for flozell adams. franchise left tackles always go high.
