Jammal Brown to the Cowboys???

SaintPauly · 04-14-2010, 10:40 PM

Just saw on NFL Network, that the Saints could be studying a trade with the Cowboys for LT Jammal Brown. Jason Laconfora says that it could happen on draft day, as the Cowboys are looking to trade their second round pick, for the right guy. What do you guys think? This will still be a high second round pick. I think they should have to throw in a player as well, unless they want to give up a 1st, or possibly the 2nd, and a 5th or 6th.

Do it...it would be nice to get a first...but a 2nd and 3rd would work...Dallas has been known to give away number ones ...lol

This is a cost-cutting move if it happens. Maybe this is why Brown decided not to attend workouts, because he may have been informed that he was on the block. The Saints are probably seeing that they won a Super Bowl without him and are content with either Bushrod or Strief at LT. With a 6+ mil tender placed on him, they are seeing less dollar signs devoted to that position and can spread that money out over people that are probably about to get extensions like Jahri Evans and Pierre Thomas. They could also use some of that money to go toward re-signing Sharper.

P.S. I would still try to get more than just the 27th pick in the 2nd round, though. Maybe a 2nd and a 4th.

It would free up some moolah...and im might be in the minority here.. but i think Bushrod and Strief and a draft pick would do ok at LT...Brown is one knee injury away from missing the season again...

LOL. I think a lot of players in the NFL are one knee injury away from missing the season

Guys, Brown is coming off a season-long injury in which his team played better when he wasn't there. Doesn't exactly scream first-round draft pick to me.

I'm with D, think maybe a low 2nd with a low-rounder could be a possibility. I'd take that in a heartbeat.

The national media ragged on Bushrod a lot last year because he had a couple of bad games, but point is, the Saints gave up very few sacks and Bushrod actually did pretty well. He's not an elite tackle, but definitely a good one.

Also, a lot of people either forget or don't take into consideration that last year was Bushrod's first time to start. He seems like a bright enough cookie to learn from his mistakes and play at a higher level next season.

the team was better....because of balance, aggression, and a few crucial pieces added

but the LT position was not better......in fact.....if was significantly worse and if we were to drop brown off for any pick, LT would immediately leap frog into the first or 2nd biggest need for this team

in fact.....we threw the 10th most passes in the league in '09.....bushrod gave up 8 sacks and had significant amounts of help

in '08......we threw the ball 635 times.......brown gave up 3 sacks with very minimal help

brown gave up a sack once every 212 drop backs....

bushrod gave up a sack every 64 drop backs......

see the difference?

I know you're down on Bushrod but how uch do you think could be accredited to it being his first season as a starter and do you see rome for improvement?

From watching him this season I feel he has the physical tools to do it. I lik ehim in runblocking but he needs to improve his footwork and "sit down" more when passblocking, IMHO.

What I mean is trading Brown if Bushrod doesn't get better would be unwise but with the coaches we have i expect him to improve.
