I'd say give the kid the better part of the year to pass judgement on the deal. If it truly is a 4th rounder it seems excessive for a back-up to possible spell starter at the position. Hell, Denver just nabbed a 3rd rounder for Lelie who is barely under contract and malcontent. Granted, the Falcons got burned bad here, but it goes to show you how good management takes advantage of the bad.

At this point we can use all the
help we can get with Linebackers. 8) |
But we don't really know if it was 4th or 7th, sites are stating different picks
|
Name all four starting LBs for the Chargers? I see the point you're trying to make, but it doesn't really apply here because this guy wasn't a starter, he was a fill-in player when the Cowboys had injuries. He's a backup. Hence nobody knows who he is. A 4th is WAYYYYYY too much for a backup LB when we were apparently offering a 4th for Donnie Edwards a Pro Bowler... does that count as one BTW?
|
And I forgot about Merriman, is he a LB?
|
what about nate wayne? is he still with us or did we let him go? seriously, peter boulware and jamie sharper are still out there in free agency... do these guys not warrant consideration? maybe sign 'em to a one year deal like we did simmons before he bailed... our biggest areas of concern are dt and cb and of course d coordinator as well.... i'm not too sure about gibbs...

Got in late and found this mess LOL
Nate Wayne released. Shanle ended up being a 7th rounder. You guys should know better from ESPN. I have no prob with a 7th. Our coaches know exactly what they are getting and deemed him worth it. Houston could have taken him on waivers ahead of us is why I think they did it. Don't count out more movement. |
If they feel they needed to add another player, than I am happy that they got one.

Even I, who am no Sunshiner by ANY means, have a little more faith in the team than that... Or enought desperation... Whatever... All is good until we are below .500 in the regular season. Then I'll be the guy handing out the piychforks and lighting the torches. But this, I'm cool with. |
If indeed it's a 7th, I don't think anyone has a problem with the trade now.
Next game... Colts. At least they're 0-8 in their last 8 preseason games. We have a chance! |
thought there was going to be an old time lynching here gang. lets start over here at:

..... and I know the Bucs are glad they got rid of that Steve Young guy.
8) |
And what about that Jake Delhomme dude?
|
Yeah, he was just some "crappy, no-name" back-up who only played when someone got injured.
|
Great point you guys. MJF...still love the helmet.
|
tHAT DUDE IS A CERTIFIED JOKE. pARCELLS LIKES TO HAVE 5-6 GREAT LINEBACKERS ON HIS DEFENSE. iF THIS JOKER WAS GOOD, HE'D STILL BE A COWBOY. WE GAVE UP A 4TH ROUND PICK!? WE GOT THE CRAPPY END OF THE STICK! I HOPE PAYTON HAS BETTER PLANS FOR THE OFF-SEASON THIS YEAR, BECAUSE 4TH ROUND IS VALUE AND THAT LITTLE WHITE LINEBACKER WILL PLAY PUNT TEAM IF HE'S LUCKY!
|
Seventh round pick, not a fourth.
|
Hey I found an article on Shanle and what Payton thinks. Hopefully this will make some of you guys feel a little better. http://www.nola.com/sports/t-p/index...270.xml&coll=1
|
Oh ok every 1 thinks the trade is great since its not a 4th ........ lmaooooooo amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
What's amazing about it?
|

|
