Why did the Steelers trade him? They traded him and then turned around and are in the market for a WR, why?

He's a locker room headache who thinks he's an all pro #1 WR when he's a solid second option. Our GM thought he was getting a bargain. Sadly not the case.

I just find it baffling that the Cowboys would even consider this trade in the first place. All the yapping from Jerry about going "all in" in the offseason and they didn't go after someone like Derrick Henry. Then they play bad football while the Eagles and Commanders are well ahead of them in the NFC East. Finally, they may not have Dak for a good while and so all signs point to no playoff run. So now is the time to make a trade? And for a guy that is unlikely to make an immediate impact and for that much compensation?

Jerry Jones "All in" = Jonathan Mingo

I actually think I DO understand lol.  I understand that when you're losing players will say things that are out of character. Diontae did not earn this super diva reputation people are trying to paint while here. The soft teams just go trading those talents away.  Diontae was easily one of the top names on the WR market, and we gave him to a team with championship aspirations for a 5th rounder. Not only that but we also gave up a pick as well.

For me it's the equivalent of when I'd trade in a game at GameStop and they'd offer me $2 to turn around and sell it for $30. I'd rather hold on to the game, and if I play it I play it, than get robbed bc I just wanted to move that piece. Part of the role Dan has is negotiation, negotiate something better (as shown in this trade.)

Managing a pro roster like you think of used xbox games...

Good stuff.  Huddle delivers.

Honestly the core of Legette and Coker is good. Can always supplement with vets. Overall, great trade for us. 

I’d rather bring in a solid vet WR and spend most of those picks on defense. A QB needs to be drafted somewhere

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.

      LOL wut? His career stats. 24-44-1 With 9 wins his highest ever.  With Barkley 64% 14000 yards passing going over 3000 just 1 fuging time 70 tds 47 ints to go along with 50 fumbles.  50 fuging fumbles In short he has 1 season over 5 wins.  1.

      So a starting QB with 5+ years of experience and whose stats are very similar (if you do math) with Cam Newton's stats (who had much better defenses and offensive lines) here becomes available, and Bryce is your QB and you do NOT kick the tires on Jones.  You simply call him a "broken toy" and do nothing.  That sounds like a very passive approach.  Remember, you labeled him, not the stats he accumulated on some pretty bad teams since 2019.  I am telling you what a smart GM would do, and even if Jones is broken and can't be fixed, you make that determination after giving the matter due diligence.  You and Completely are simply forcing your opinions about his play into logic, and the stats do not support them.  Put him in a better situation and he will do better, but in a bad situation, with some terrible offensive lines, WRs, and bad defenses,  he was on track to have stats that parallel Cam Newton--like it or not--numbers don't lie, nor does his size, arm strength, speed, and intelligence.  Broken? I am saying he is an interesting prospect and should not be overlooked by bias, misinformation, and context.
