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.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.

      Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
