Forge Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 And everyone was wondering who would catch passes in Dallas....pshhh....for those wondering, its still the same people even after this trade. Tavon isn't catching many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broncofan Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 So they got a 6th round pick for Austin? ANYTHING they get is a gift. Why? Because GM Snead was on the hook for the 7M anyways, it was guaranteed. But he got Austin to convert to 1M salary and 6M roster bonus earlier - what it meant was that a team trading for him would get only a 1M salary hit. So it made Austin tradeable. Given the Rams were stuck paying 7M anyways before, now they save 1M and get a pick. For a guy they couldn't use anymore. Really subtle but brilliant cap management & draft capital move by Snead. For DAL, they get a gadget guy and ST returner for 1M. Can't pan it for them. I salute Snead's creativity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the lone star Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Maybe he can play some backup RB. Cowboys got a big hole there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mancunian Raven Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Man, I still remember being disappointed his draft stock flew so high that the Ravens didn't have a shot at taking him.... This works for the Rams, even if they eat the dead money. And it might work for the Cowboys, because I can see Austin making at least a few plays for Dak Prescott.

AZ_Eaglesfan Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Tavon Austin is really fast, but that is all he is. Not a good football player and a clear bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fair and justified point, my dear fellow! I have made the necessary corrections above, better capturing Tavon's idiom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cromagnum Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Only thing this guy is good at is a PR. Ye he is fast but he is not a good WR and i doubt he will produce much as a third down back as Elliot will get the bulk of the playing time.
