big_palooka Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 Good player. Got lost in the awful Downing offense. Surprised Gruden couldn't see the potential for him in his system. Dallas essentially let their current FB walk (to Oakland) to trade for Oakland's FB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickButera Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Odd. Gruden loves versatile FB's, thought olawale fitted his scheme well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackinBlack Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 hmm this is surprising to me. frees up 1.8 mil i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mct288 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Whoa. I was interested to see him in Gruden's offense. The staff must like Keith Sweat (Smith) a lot. I'm glad we could get something back for him, cause there was no way 2 FBs would be on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_palooka Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 Another core ST guy gone. Hope Keith Smith is what Gruden is looking for in a FB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakdb36 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Keith Smith signing for 2M/Y was pretty telling. They weren't going to carry 2 FBs making more than the vet minimum. I think Jared Cook gets traded next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakdb36 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 We send a 6th and Olawale, we get a 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a big part of getting Keith Smith was the connection to the new ST coordinator. Dallas fans loved the guy. Maybe more than we did Olawale. I did like Olawale, but he became redundant. I like turning these 6ths into 5ths by using players that weren't in the plans. Even if I did like both players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_palooka Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 2 5th round picks and 4 6th round picks now. Smells like they want to be in position to get back into round 3 or 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seth Roberts trade next? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washington or Richard could be on the block? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
