Dobbs to the Vikings

[juza76]

Why is that interesting?

I guess he refers about incoherency and how someone can find always a way to complain

Vikings plan to start Josh Dobbs this week

The Vikings didn't plan on playing quarterback Josh Dobbs in Week 9, but they are planning on having him make the start in Week 10.

Should’ve gotten more for Dobbs. At least a third

 

[SoonerLou]

Dobbs put up 3 tds without even knowing half his teammates names. Without his #1 wr and without his LT.

Kyler/Petzing need to put up a couple tds.

Dobbs played well despite 2 turnovers. But he made few if any throws over 15 yards.
I think Monti rewarded Dobbs for being a 'good soldier'. In a way similar to trading Aeneas to St. Louis.

Why not a second.

Maybe it underlined how some complain no matter what.

Two firsts!

What is there to complain about on a 1-8 team?

Some fans are never satisfied.

Josh Dobbs has twice as many wins as we do as a team.

I would've settled for Justin Jefferson.

Keim would have got a fifth.

Only fans that expected this team to have a non-tank season are upset. I expected this type of year and so each loss bothers me less and less.

[SECTION 11]

The most Cardinal thing ever.

 

[Arz101]

Happy for Dobbs..but the dude was cut or traded by 4 teams. This is one time it is not the cardinal thing ever

exactly!

With a 7th? A seventh that could turn into a HIGHER sixth?

I’d rather have Dobbs. I’d argue that we added value to Dobbs over the previous eight games but we got less value for him.

Monti continues to make galaxy-brained trades.

Poverty mindset

 

[WisconsinCard]

No. Sorry. The above isn’t just hyperbole, it’s a total fabrication about why people were mad about the move at the time. The anger came from the fact that this team HAD to give up assets for a guy they should have just signed outright in FA but were too cheap too AND we should have never depended on Colt McCoy’s completely washed ass in the first place, necessitating the Dobbs trade.

posts that not only oversimplify others arguments but completely misrepresent what the original pov was does nothing but try and stoke flame wars.

Although I agree with the hyperbole portion of your post, I am not sure where we can be confident that we had a shot at him in FA. Monti said the financials didn't work out. I take that to mean that Cleveland was willing to offer him a fully guaranteed 2.5 million dollar deal with 500k of it as a bonus. Not sure how many other teams would have made that offer. And if the cards did how many here would have been happy about it? I predict very few.

 

[WisconsinCard]

I also might add that this move adds about a million cap space to roll over to next year as well. So to say JD could have been our back up is premature at best. I mean he would be a FA and can go wherever he wants to.

 

[speedy]

For all intents and purposes we trade Simmons, josh Jones, and Dobbs for a 6th rounder. 2 guys we were cutting anyways and a backup qb that although he struggled in the end, he served his purpose.

We didn't gain much but we didn't lose much either

Not sure why EA gets a thumbs down here.

He’s speaking the truth.

So you thought it was a bad trade to when we signed him for a late 5th (it was the Eagles 5th) but now you think it's bad we get a 6th back? Likely a mid 6th. And it will be a 6th, because he is going to start 4 games barring injury.

You'd rather have 1-7 Dobbs for a additional start so he can then warm the bench for Murray and hit FA than get most of the pick back you thought was way too much 10 weeks ago?

Make this make sense.

100% If it came out the Vikings offered a 6th and we turned it down you would be here complaining how Monti was dumb to turn down a 6th for a guy to warm the Bench for 7 games. Guaranteed.

Complain about everything the Cardinals do.
