When you claim Chris Odom, the dominoes fall...

He was traded for a conditional 7th rounder, so he needs to stick with Boys for awhile for us to get anything.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

This isn't good, is it?

The Cowboys claimed defensive tackle Brian Price off of waivers from the Packers on Sunday and they also traded for one of his defensive teammates from Green Bay. According to reports in both Dallas and Green Bay, the Cowboys have traded a conditional 2018 seventh-round pick for outside linebacker Jayrone Elliott. Elliott made the Packers [more]

But I liked Elliot and at minimum he's a good ST player and has speed off the edge.
Price is a good run stopper.

If we don't get at least a 7th round pick out of it, I'm probably gonna be a little unhappy about it.

So did an already thin crop of linebackers just get thinner to the point that it's going to hurt, or we going to be okay.
This trade puzzles me!

I mean ... Must've thought they were gonna sign him ... do we even know they looked at him as an UDFA? They looked at many others by bringing them in for predraft visits.

I'm just trying to say there oftentimes is a much simpler possibilities... and from what I've seen in life, usually it's the simple possibility, more than the complex conspiracy.

Such as, Odom got on everyone radars putting up a lot of sacks in college, most teams thought to keep a tab on the guy, including probably his pro-day and other stuff and then the Packers watched all 32 teams preseason tape and they liked what they saw Odom did in preseason games... and thought he has more pass rush potential.

7th round picks are generally players with little chance of making the 53 on a contending team. As was said in another post it beats trying to grab them as an UDFA.
