Quinn To Be A Cowboy Soon??

I want picks this year not next - i like how deep the 2019 talent is at certain positions.
 
I'm thinking it's only a 6th because of the 1 year contract. I wonder if it was like a 3 year deal if we would have received a better pick.

A win would of been a 5th (or a 4th with eating salary . . .they were never getting a third, even if they ate the whole thing).

A 6th is a win for both teams.

Even though we paid a 4th just a year ago, he’s a year older coming off a healthy season where, lets face it, he underperformed . . .in a system that he should of excelled.

He didn’t win nearly enough as he should of. He definitely wasn’t terrible, but he wasn’t a $13 million dollar cap guy either IMO.

In the end, its a good deal for Miami, who would of likely cut him and for Dallas, who lost Gregory.

Jordan Howard just got traded for a 6th that could turn into a 5th for the 2020 draft.

A 6th is good for a player we were gonna cut
 
My objection is everything, everything is wrong. It starts with the owner who is willing to pay 5 million dollars for a fourth round pick in 2020, just dishing cash out to a departing player; to Chris Grier who has the nerve to ask for that and do it, and increase the cap hit this year so he can play around and "improve" the team "next year." That stuff should not even be mentioned between normal people.

My objection is to the five year plan, because there is no such thing. There is only one plan, one standard, and that is to win now, do now, get sht done now. Otherwise it is a dereliction of duty. They are fkn around.

My objection is that they have not traded up yet for the most important thing, the QB.

My objection is to scrapping the DE position because it creates holes unnecessarily. Robert Quinn is perfectly fine at DE, and not too expensive. Quinn had 6.5 sacks and is paid 12 mil, and that is just fine. He was on a contract for one more year.

My objection is they will use draft capital unnecessarily to fill holes they created! It's a waste of time and resources, and it is damaging.

My objection is to paying Quinn 1.1 million to have a right to trade him for a "late rounds" pick. It's a waste of cash and cap room, and it goes back to dereliction of duty to do now. It is just mind boggling to waste cash and cap like that.

My objection is with infatuation with late rounds picks which are of negligible value, 80 points at best in fourth round instead of keeping a perfectly fine player to help the team this season.

Wasting cash, wasting cap, scrapping the team, intentionally creating holes, selling a pipe dream of results in the future, not getting critical things done. It's all a part of Chris Grier overall fraud.

What a ridiculous take
 
A 4th would have been a win, a 5th would have been even, a 6th (and if the Boys have a good season it is close to a 7th) is a loss.
 
If we only got a 6th count me unimpressed. We just gave up just a 4th rounder last year that many on this site considered a pretty good deal. Plus we have squat at the defensive end positions. Tell ya what if a 6th is great value then we should trade down and aquire a bunch of those dudes and load up on draft picks to plug the numerous holes on this roster. This yaking about burning picks to move up in the draft for some player like a Carroo on a team full of holes like ours is a backward move.

Totally disagree with you brother. We got a 6th, and only payed a little over a million of his salary. We didn't have to pay a huge part of his salary to make the deal. The way I look at this something was better than nothing if we would have released him.

They have moved a Lucas, ryan and Quinn- all players most probably thought were straight cuts for picks that they may end up packaging or finding one or two possible players at cheap contracts that could be on the team.

I just dont see any of it as a ‘loss’ per say- honestly.

Great take. But hey who cares if it just justifies the loosing we will be enduring the next 3 years just hoping we chose the right coach and QB. Of course now instead of a 3 year plan to find out if we made another bad choice we have to wait and see over 5 years plus loose alot in the meanwhile.
 
For me the talk of a 4th was based on eating some of his salary. If that isn't the case then as the guy was generally accpeted to be a prime candidate to be cut a 6th is better then nothing.
