DaBoys Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 The only reason Jerry is hesitant is because he loves Dak, Amari, Jaylon, and to a lesser degree Zeke, a whole lot more. If he could, he would work out contracts with all four of them first. If there was anything left over then maybe sign DLaw. He probably wants Byron over Lawrence as well. Jerry sees former 1st rounder Taco Charlton and a cheaper option in Robert Quinn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade him for a 1st and 2nd maybe a 3rd or a future 2nd. Get what we can. Sign Ansah and trade for Quinn and take a small risk on McDowell. Take what we get from the trade of DLaw and package it to move up as far as we can for a top DE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we trade for Quinn, sign Ansah and McDowell...I say we go all-in on Oliver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony7188 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Here's my issue with not paying D-Law. He's been the vocal leader on the defense for the past few years and have shown incredible toughness by playing through injuries. Last year when he was tagged, Lawrence immediately signed it and went out to prove that he should get a big contract. He's not only shown All Pro talent, but he was the driving force behind the defense's resurgence. The F.O. has to exhaust every avenue in trying to pay him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingmonkey30 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I think the only way I move him is if Indianapolis would give up 26 and 34. Then I would try to go up and get Oliver. If I can't do that, I'm probably looking at some combination of Noah Fant, Taylor Rapp, Clelin Ferrell, Christian Wilkins. But I wouldn't go less than that. So what are your thoughts? Demarcus Lawrence or Ziggy Ansah, Christian Wilkins, and Taylor Rapp? Ansah and Oliver? I still think I'd rather have one superstar pass rusher in Lawrence than a couple of rookies, but it's close.

CAPJ Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Im on the fence with paying him, not that he doesnt deserve it based on his recent performance, just based on available cap and who we still have left to sign. Seeing that we dont know what is going on with RG, Taco has been disappointing we dont have any replacement. Even trading for Robert Quinn and signing Ziggy, both injury prone players, may not even replace D-Law. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizardHawk Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 How dumb does Dallas look if they don’t resign DLaw? from Cowboys Nation.... NFC East Cap Space, Currently: 2019 — Cowboys $17,468,779* / Eagles $23,454,518 / Redskins $12,544,347 / Giants $11,798,442 2020 — Cowboys $116,479,501 / Eagles $30,632,712 / Redskins $52,248,055 / Giants $85,875,333 *Does not include Robert Quinn trade.

Calvert28 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 If he wants anything more then 21 or 22, I would be fine with paying him and trading him if the deal involves multiple firsts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBoys Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) Just pay him, we'll have an out in 3 years if it doesn't pan out. Edited March 28, 2019 by DaBoys 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless someone comes along and offers two 1sts (like Oakland) and gives us a chance at moving up to get Oliver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPJ Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 With KC having a big need and cap, would you take their 1st and 3rd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s about as low as I’d go, maybe throw in a conditional 2020 and I’d be happy with that. 31 is basically a 2nd so I’d rather see 31 and their 2nd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 31st, their 3rd and next years 3rd as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
