Wiretap says he wants LT Contract. HE was the bet last year. Any interest, and would boys give up a 1 or 2 to get him?

The price would be 2 firsts. I just don't see that happening. I imagine that the Joey Galloway signing is still too painful for the Cowboys to even consider it.

I have serious doubts about going a whole season with our current CB group, but as much as I'd like to see it happen, I just don't see Samuel in a Cowboys uniform.

It's always odd to see players in this situation demanding a trade. I doubt there's *any* team that would give up two firsts and the Patriots know it. They'll take another year of him at the franchise level, playing his ass off for a contract and then just let him walk. It's how they work in NE. They didn't reach their success in the salary cap era by being generous with their cash. Frankly, the Adalius Thomas signing surprised me a great deal.

The Cost might out weigh the positives.

I'd rather look at Briggs than Samuel.. I think last year will be his best year as a pro.

I can live with that. I think boys may draft a CB in second if one is the BPA

Sadly too expensive given the rules. Cowboys add a good cover free safety (Hamlin hopefully), a rookie CB from 1st day of the draft, and maybe another pass rusher as insurance against injury and all should be cool.

Seattle fans have said that Hamlin is very "Roy Williams" in his play.

That doesn't sound like an endorsement. If that's the truth get me Merriweather in the 1st round.

You got my point. I want Watkins to be manning Center Field back there.
