UPDATE: I am hearing that the Cowboys' original offer for Boldin was their 1st rounder (2009), but the Cards need a starter opposite Fitz, so they brought Crayton into the discussion and the Cowboys countered with Crayton and a 2nd. My source also said that the Cards like what they have in the slot with Doucet and Breaston...and that they have always been high on Crayton, whom they think would be a good compliment opposite Fitz.

Uh, the phone is ringing...gotta go...stay tuned...this could be more.

Those, in my opinion, would both be terrible trades. I doubt any of this is true. Site your sources, or it didn't happen. Tabloids don't site their sources either so I believe this about as much as I believe that aliens planted their seed in Hillary Clinton and that Bill is really the love child of Hillary and an alien.

Wait WAIT. My sources are coming out of the woodwork too!!!!! Guess what they are telling me.

Rod Graves is in serious negotiations with the Buffalo Bills to send Larry Fitzgerald, Edgerrin James, Matt Leinart and our 2009 1st round pick for a conditional 7th round pick and a bag of balls.

Who believes me??

Scources are also saying that if Rolle doesnt work at FS they are going to see if Levi Brown can play the position. They think his height and hands would be an assest in the middle of the field.

My source has also indicated to me that Matt Leinart is the illigitimate son of Ken Wisenhunt, which is the reason why he is the starting QB!!

More details tomorrow.....

Mitch your Boldin deal sounds pretty good. For your credability I hope it works out the way you say.

Mitch you would have to have a player like Chad Johnson to ever consider a "Q" replacement. We Need a SPEED Reciever, not a also ran and a maybe draft Choice in the future...!!! If we cannot get that type of a trade "Q" has to stay here and finish is Contract. Let's stop giving away great players for also rans to Dallas. That was our 1988-2004 Stradegy.

And Docket needs to have at least one more Pro Bowl year before we ever renegoticate with Him.

The Dallas Cowboys are offering WR Patrick Crayton and their 2nd round pick in 2009 for WR Anquan Boldin. The Cardinals want the Cowboys to add T James Marten to the deal and will settle for Crayton, Marten and a 3rd.

The Atlanta Falcons are offering RB Jerious Norwood and their 4th round pick for Dockett. The Cardinals want Norwood and a 3rd and will add J.J. Arrignton to get it...but are strongly considering the deal, Norwood and a 4th, as is.

Crayton is a super slippery WR who put up good numbers last year, but dropped a key pass versus the Giants that Cowboy fans are still lamenting. He scored 7 TDs last year from the following distances: 3, 4, 4, 8, 20, 37, 59.

Norwood is the blazer at RB the Cards covet...he would need to be tendered next year in his 4th year, but the Cards would have money to burn if they deal Boldin and Dockett, and Norwood would be worth it. Two years down the line he and Tim Hightower would be a prodigious "thunder and lightning" combination.
Both those deals are horrible. The Cardinals would be getting raped in both those deals.

Thinking about this more, I think we've been had. Mitch yanked our chains on purpose.

You did, didn't you, Mitch? Good one. Well calculated.

Bring on the season! 37 days left?

I think Mitch is on to something here.

No team can afford to devote that much of their cap paying for two #1's.

A Steelers-like team doesn't need two #1 WR's.

Q is in his prime now, but injuries are starting to be part of the package in how he plays. Let's get past the Superman thing, OK? Superman never had "contract issues".

Age is a factor with Edge, maybe we get another good year...maybe not. Hightower is a hope. JJ is a disappointment. Shipp...is gone, IMO.

Dockett stock is high; and with the judgement warning signs we are seeing now...maybe it is time to sell and get a really, really, good price.

I wonder if the negtiations with Dansby, AW, and Green would go any better?

except the Cowboys apparently, who after signing TO to a new deal, are going to trade for Boldin and give him a new deal as well.

Sorry I didn't get back sooner...there is more.

My source told me that the interest in Crayton was generated by Todd Haley who coached Crayton in Dallas...and it was Haley who really liked this kid and started grooming him when they (Dallas) selected him in the 7th round of the 2004 draft out of Northwestern Oklahoma.

Also...he said that Terry Glenn is toast and will be gone...and because the one thing the Cowboys didn't do this off-season was add the good WR they wanted to, that Jerry Jones believes they are one premier WR away from a Super Bowl berth.
