T-Choice
There's a lot of talk coming out of San Diego about TC being traded to the Chargers?
Don't know any details and was curious to see if anyone on BTB knows anything!
I would hate to see him go, he's become one of my favorite cowboys to watch (when he actually gets the chance!). So unless the Bolts are giving us Vincent Jackson or Darren Sproles, Doesnt make much sense to me.
Jerry Jones, C'mon man!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For Cromartie?????
Oh please lord, make this a joke. Cro is one of the worst starting CBs in the NFL. He gets some picks but he is a horrible tackler and takes way too many chances. Plus, after the ’ole against the Jets, I cant imagine anyone would have interest in him.
i personally like the idea
but if this happened, Dallas can cut newman and walk away from his deal under the new rules. If this trade happened, then newman might be gone… which i also like. but I’m a newman hater so im bias ha
Texas Stadium has a hole in the roof so God can watch his favorite team play football.
Might be able to get something for Newman
He did just make a probowl, maybe a 4-5 rounder

Yeah I dont' see anything special in Newman
2009 Dallas Cowboys: better than the Philadelphia Eagles
2009 New York Jets: my super early just-moments-after-the-Colts-game trendy Super Bowl XLV pick; oh yeah, also better than the Dolphins
2009-2010 Dallas Mavericks: 57-25, even though they beat the Celtics and then lost to the freaking Raptors...
Cromartie better than Newman?
Insane. I’m not saying Newman is an All-Pro, but I might be saying Cromartie kind of sucks.
Would Cromartie play FS (with his size)?
Because otherwise I don’t really see how the trade would make a ton of sense.
If I had a nickel for every Super Bowl the Eagles have won, I would have zero nickels.
Hmm
that is an interesting topic, where would he play, i don’t think he is a solid enough tackler to play FS, but didn’t Wade draft him?

interesting
I would hate to see Tashard go, he’s a versatile back who gives us great depth in the backfield and brings great energy and attitude as well, and both years so far we’ve needed him when Marion and Felix were banged up. Having said that, we probably need CB depth more than a RB, and a backup RB is one of the easiest positions to get in the mid-rounds of the draft.
If Choice does leave the RB I want the Boys to take is
Lagarrett Blount, that dude is a monster, I don’t care too much about the punch, bad decision but he did do everything he had to do to get back on the field and at least it wasn’t any criminal activity

I think its all bs...
Does not make much sense to me…
it makes sense
when u think that Dallas can lose choice and replace him with a late round pick, or a low-mid grade FA, remember dallas can’t sign a big free agent and a 3rd string RB would be attainable. Also, When Barber and Jones are healthy, choice gets used very very little, essentially dallas would be giving up choice, a guy who is rarely used, for cromartie a guy whose talent is unbelievable, also the year Cromartie had 10 ints, WADE PHILLIPS was his D coordinator. if you think about it, it makes very good sense.
Also I don’t see Cromartie switching to Safety, he’s been a corner in this league for his entire career, and I think his tackling is pretty decent, but I’m not sure he is a “sure” tackler.
in the end, we give up a player we rarely use, and can replace with ease, for talent that is very rare, and a player who excelled in Wade Phillip’s scheme. like I said it will be interesting to see what happens to Newman if this actually happens. if not at least this has been something to talk about

Choice is barber's replacement..I rather see what dallas could get for barber rather than choice...
Plus Cro is overrated and most charger fans would not mind seeing him gone…
No team is going to trade for Barber
His contract is way too big, he has been getting dinged up lately, he is not nearly as explosive and punishing as he used to be, and there is the possibility that the Cowboys will use the uncapped year to shed themselves of big bad contracts, and MBIII is near the top of that list.
In short, the Cowboys will get nothing for Barber

I disagree barbers contract is a "big bad contract"
Roy williams contract would be in that category..Barber still is productive and would start for many squads in the nfl…He still runs hard and is great in pass protection. If you think they just release the guy you are delusional.
I don't think they will but it is possible
and if you think that Barber’s contract is commensurate with his performance last year, you really should not be calling anybody ‘delusional’

Barber vs. Choice
contract issues aside, I would rather us get rid of Barber and move forward with Felix and Choice. I think it’s quite possible Barber’s best days are behind him, and Choice could turn out to be a really exceptional back when given a starting opportunity. But in the realities of the business end of things, I don’t think that’s likely.
correction, iCowboy
The Cowboys can sign 1 big free agent. That’s the rules of the Final Eight, which applies to the Cowboys.
@iCowboy
Yeah, You’re right, Wade Phillips didn’t coach the Cowboys in ‘07, did he? Geez louise…
Since Barber and Felix have both been injured the last two seasons, it makes great sense to keep Choice. Newman played well last season. He will be the starter this coming season, and there is no way that Cromartie is gonna play a back-up role.
The rumour’s a whole bunch bull s**t anway.

that didn't look like
i wanted it to, but im too lazy to fix it sorry

Hmm not much difference
as well as Cromartie is still in his prime and Newman is on the wrong side of 30, and with this it would give us 4 corners that can play and we might be able to get something for Newman, Wade did draft Cromartie and Cromartie if I remember correctly had his best year w/ Wade as well

It's BS
Hacksaw Hamilton pulled it out of his culo (as he does almost everything) and even the other hosts on that station could only say, “well, that’s Hacksaw for ya”.
With that said, Choice probably has the highest trade value of any non-starter on the team, and based on how little I saw of him last year, it makes sense to trade him if they can find an every-down player at another position.
But forget Cromartie. The entire SD fan base wants him cut.

Jerry don't do that!!!!!!!!!!
if they wanna a RB offer barber for a second pick, but if they really want choice stole those chargers the most you can, kinda a straight trade choice for his 1round pick, or marcus mcneil for choice and a low round pick
Choice has more value to opposing teams than Barber
And with Barber’s contract and production, you might be lucky to get a 3rd rounder for him. 2nd might be out of the question.
I love the three headed monster we have
and would hate to see any of them go but logic tells me that all of them are capable of starting and Dallas likes to throw some too. This leaves someone out and after last year, I think Barber lost some juice and noway is Felix going anywhere. That leaves Choice as the only real trade bait and he wants more playing time and deserves it.
LT saying he's not going to be a Charger next year
I wonder how this Choice story plays into it, but they fit together… if LT feels that the Chargers aren’t going to keep him, that would give credence to their need for Choice.

I wonder if Choice was the mystery "Young Player"
…….that there was supposedly a good offer for early in the season? There was a lot of speculation that it might have been Bennett, or Spencer, but maybe it was Choice?
No
It was Bennett. They supposedly were offered a 2nd round pick from the Bengals.

Bad move
Barber’s a mediocre running back and I still don’t quite trust that Felix’s injury bug is gone.
2009 Dallas Cowboys: better than the Philadelphia Eagles
2009 New York Jets: my super early just-moments-after-the-Colts-game trendy Super Bowl XLV pick; oh yeah, also better than the Dolphins
2009-2010 Dallas Mavericks: 57-25, even though they beat the Celtics and then lost to the freaking Raptors...
take the deal
i enjoy the three headed monster we have, and i like choice better than barber…. but there’s no way we can get rid of barber and his contract short of straight releasing him… so keep barber and felix, trade choice for cromartie… this way we have great depth at a position (cb) that will utiilize depth more, and we solve our pr/kr problems
