After Dallas there's only 1 other team who might take a RB in the first round.

 

[CardShark]

Would you guys trade the Cards 4th rounder this year along with next years 2nd rounder to get the Patriots second pick?

 

[vikesfan]

NE is smart. That is how they win.
They trade for all those extra picks smart. They trade for Dillon smart. Their offensive and defensive schemes are smart. That is how the franchise wins.

DG emphasizes this as well: play smart not just play hard and play physical. You got to be smart to win in the NFL or the draft or FA when there is parity and a system in place to create parity.

Depends who's on the board, I don't like trading just to be trading unless you are targeting a specific player....yo!

Buffalo moved up in Dallas spot. giving up ??

And then you need a bit of luck. NE was lucky Wilfork fell that far. And that Dillon wanted out of CIN.

I think the Cards had some good luck so far (and OT so did the Vikes).

Cowboys trade with the Bills w/ Stephen Jackson there. WOW!!

BTW they took Losman

 

[ThunderCard]

JP Loseman. i thought he would have been there in the second ??

 

[ThunderCard]

How far will Jackson drop ??

 

[Zeno]

JP Loseman. i thought he would have been there in the second ??

Losman would not have made it past the Packers or Rams in the first round. Still its a surprise move in that Dallas traded away their chance at Jackson.

Dallas gets a 2nd and 5th this year and a 1st next year. As a Cowboy fan, I absolutely hate what just happened.

 

[ThunderCard]

Buffalo got fleeced with trading up ! Next year's number 1, this years #2 and 5th. WOW !!!

 

[az jam]

Dallas gets Buffalo's 2nd this year, 5th and first from next Year!!!

That was a desperation trade

 

[ThunderCard]

Screw Dallas !! it was a good trade for Dallas, but waht were both teams thinking. I had visions of Emmitt all over again

Well keep it in mind as we see who is there?

Couldn't happen to a nicer team!!!

This was an absolute disaster for the Cowgirls. Sure, they'll have an extra #1 next year, and some extra picks this year, but screwed themselves over by not taking Jackson. I hope there's a run on RBs early in the 2nd round and the Cowgirls get double screwed.

 

[Stout]

If the Bengals don't take Steven Jackson, and it's certainly no sure thing that they will, he could very well fall to us in the 2nd. No one else has a dire RB need. Only the Titans, IMO, would possibly snap him up.

 

[Zeno]

I don't see Jackson in Cincy--Rudi Johnson is their guy, he proved he can hack it.

Jackson could go to Rams or Titans...both have aging RBs and no player really sitting in the wings.

If Jackson gets past those 2 teams he may be sitting there for us at 33...unless of course somebody trades up for him(like Cleveland).

 

[ehale911]

I've heard from a few places that Dallas may be trading back up to pick Jackson, if that happens I'd take back my previous comment, if not, that was a really dumb deal. Bills gave up a lot, but Jackson fits perfectly for Dallas.

 

[az jam]

Maybe the guy they really want at RB is Tatum Bell and they feel he will be there on the 2nd round with the Bills pick. Plus since no RBs have been taken others may be available.

 

[vikesfan]

DAL must like a RB who will be there in round 2 they must have their sights set on someone in round 2 they like better. One of the Jones RBs maybe.

(The only team that did not get fleeced in trading today has been MIA only a 4th round pick okay I will take it its better then nothing.)

Cards are going to get their chance at a stud at #33. I think we are going to find out what DG really thinks of Shipp.

 

[az jam]

Dallas could also move up as they have two second round picks.

 

[CardsFan88]

Wow, where does Stephen Jackson go?

There is no way he drops to us.

Note to Vikesfan: Lots of messages on Vikes board that Udeze will need shoulder surgery. Don't know what is fact or fiction.
