Wild rumor

GloryDaysRBack · Apr 16, 2014

@thehuddlereport Cowboys putting together a package trying to get into top 3 for Clowney. Deal would include 16th pick 2015 1st rounder + CB Morris Claiborne

Jon88 · Apr 16, 2014

Please let it happen

NoDak · Apr 16, 2014

I hope that's not true. I don't care about Claiborne, but sure as shit don't want to lose next years first rounder.

I hope to hell Houston takes him first so Jerry doesn't even have time to harbor this stupid idea.

ThoughtExperiment · Apr 16, 2014

I seriously doubt that. Our first isn't worth that much, and the rest of the league knows Claiborne is pretty much a bust.

I don't think we have the ammo to even get up that high, honestly. A couple of years ago if we wanted to trade Ware, then maybe.

Omegasupreme · Apr 16, 2014

It's very Jerry! Losing Ware means Jerry's appetite for a Ware replacement may lead to some rash decisions. The question is: How good IS Clowney? How much better is he than say, Ziggy Ansah .

peplaw06 · Apr 16, 2014

This would be the exact type of thing Jerry would do.

Jon88 · Apr 16, 2014

I just want to dump Claiborne, but I hate the idea of losing a 1st rounder next year.

I doubt it's true though.

Jax would have to be retarded to make that trade.

Last yr Miami traded very little to move up to 3rd from where they were (11 or 12 I think)The price of these trade ups seems to keep going down.

Teams know they can fleece Jerry.

dbair1967 · Apr 16, 2014

If Marinelli believes Clowney is a dominant franchise caliber defensive player, then trading our one this yr and next yr would be well worth it as long as they maximize their draft this yr. I'd hate to give up on Claiborne so soon because I still think he can be a good CB, I'd rather throw in Bruce Carter (poor effort, mediocre season last yr and in last yr of contract) or maybe a later pick.

Clowney was absolutely sensational as a FR and SOPH

Midswat · Apr 16, 2014

Dumb move.

Highly doubt there's any validity to this.

Big difference between 11 and 12 and 16, though... That's that thing, those four other teams probably want Clowney (or a QB), too, and their picks are better than ours.

Midswat · Apr 16, 2014

I'd rather make that trade for Bortles.

I wouldn't be opposed to that either

Jon88 · Apr 16, 2014

I can see this trade happening if Jerry agrees to pay someone full time to tie Claiborne's shoes and take him to the bathroom.

Or, teams realize that having extra picks in the second and third is more valuable than one in the first.

Nobody in this proposed deal is getting extra picks in any of those Rounds

marionbarberthe4th · Apr 16, 2014

What does "putting together a package" mean? Like you send it ups

marionbarberthe4th · Apr 16, 2014

Yea and then you have no first next year when you need a qb :cr122
