What do you think about Patrick Crayton in Carolina?

[Gazi]

The Cowboys will release him before the training camp starts. Some team ahead of us will claim him. Why not give Dallas a 6th rounder and pick up his $2 million salary before he hits the waivers.

[Mr. Scot]

Not that exciting to me, honestly.

Nothing special in the size, speed or hands department. He's overachieved at times, but not on a regular basis. These days, pretty average. He is, as has been said, "one of those guys you'll always be looking to upgrade".

[Panthro]

Plus he doesn't want to play for the contract he has. He"ll just sit out here. No thanks.

[BF91]

Because he's not that good? Plus he's looking for a starting job, and if we're committed to young players then the coaching staff is going to want to have one of LaFell/Jarrett starting this year.

[mmmbeans]

no f*cking way.

[Gazi]

He has great hands and is a punt returner as well (something we need desperately)

Having a veteran with great pass catching skills in a slot can only help those guys develop. This doesn't mean he won't be a 3rd WR (LaFell being a #2)

You can get a punt returner for less than $2MM and a 6th round pick. We've got guys on the roster than can handle returning punts.

[Mr. Scot]

For the money he'd want, i wouldn't take him over what we have now.

Even at vet minimum (which doesn't technically exist this season) you'd have to convince me.

I believe we'll learn in time that Armanti Edwards can do anything Crayton could and more, but cheaper and minus the headaches.

I hear that every year brother, and we keep getting worse and worse. Every punt return I just pray the guy doesn't fumble, forget taking it back for a TD

He wants to start. Pretty simple concept there. Some teams start three WR, we're not one of them. He's not going to be a big part of our offense, therefore he wouldn't be happy here and we'd hear the same poo we're hearing from him now.

No.

if we want that we'll re-sign Moose

I think we have a few options at PR this season, edwards/jackson/munnerlyn, plus he does not have great hands, you must like the cowboys
