Extending Pickens

[Donpingon]

Pickens is talented but lacks the discipline to “stay” great. Buy low sell high.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

OK now something stinks... I just pray we aren't getting rid of him for shit because we are cheap. Fucking nightmares of Cooper 2.0

 

[Genghis Khan]

I hate this fucking team.

Let the Bullshit Continue

Holy fuck, they just might trade him tonight. Why else would he sign the tag? He couldn't be traded without a deal in place or the tag signed. Please don't be for peanuts. God damn, Jerry. Haven't you caused us enough fucking pain?

I mean technically a contract doesn't have to be in place but odds are one will be. Just wait for it to be straight up for some vet LBer or some bullshit. I really have no faith in this team to get good value trading away a player.
The fucking Giants can get pick 10 for their stud coming off the worst year of his career. Dallas got a fifth for Cooper in his prime. Makes me uncomfortable.

better be more than or equivalent to the Waddle compensation

I guess I'm the only one fine with trading him if we get enough...

I am if we get more than Waddle went for.

I am not if we get less. Don't give me a fucking second round pick and tell me that's ok.

[NoDak]

Even if we trade him for two number ones, there will still be people bitching about trading him.

So in that vein... I hope we trade him for a conditional 7th.

I do wonder how much the massive contract he'll demand affects it. He's a much better player than Waddle, though.

You can bet your ass that the volatility factor with him weighs heavily, too.

i think everyone is ok with that. its the value that we dont believe that they can get.

You know it won’t be

It needs to be a first, plus.

then keep him

 

[Genghis Khan]

I'll say this, not to put a damper on our bitch fest but there is one additional reason he might sign his tender this weekend other than to facilitate a trade.

The cowboys begin offseason workouts on Monday. If he plans on attending he'd presumably want to sign his tender first.

then keep him

The timing of signing the tag leads me to believe they are not
