Re: Dunbar demanding trade or release
Per Al Galdi per Doc Walker...Dunbar meeting with Ron Rivera Thursday. Doesn't want trade or released.
Good news but the Dunbar bat signal worked. Got the ball rolling.

Re: Dunbar demanding trade or release
Wait - based on the immediate fan response across social media, weren't we supposed to just cut him immediately for daring to use an incredibly common - and often successful - strategy for working out a mutually amicable deal?

Re: Dunbar demanding trade or release
Gotta think Dunny could have handled this behind the scenes vs going public with a tantrum

No idea why he didn't go to Ron first instead, or if he told someone privately who then leaked it. Either way a poor look for him, but I won't give a shit if they manage to get something worked out. Give him a little more guaranteed money but obviously with his injury history he doesn't deserve a huge deal.

Re: Dunbar demanding trade or release
Sign Dunny and also bring in Byron Jones/ Tre Boston and you have a legit top 5 unit

------------- Jones should safely command a contract worth $13 million to $15 million in annual value. The Cowboys don’t seem quick to draft a check. On Tuesday, executive vice president Stephen Jones characterized re-signing Prescott as the “No. 1 priority” this offseason and Cooper as “No. 2.” On Wednesday, vice president of player personnel Will McClay was asked directly about Jones. “He’s a starting-caliber NFL corner,” McClay said. “A really good player. We have to figure out his financial value and if it fits for us.” His one major shortcoming has been a lack of playmaking. Jones is the first defensive back in NFL history to exceed 70 starts during his first five seasons and record fewer than five interceptions. Jones has two picks in 73 starts. He carries into free agency a streak of 40 straight games without an interception. https://www.dallasnews.com/sports/co...-with-suitors/ ----- I go 10M per for both jones and dunbar (and be really happy about it) but I doubt either would take it.

Re: Dunbar demanding trade or release
I’m starting to align my thinking with Sunnyside on Jones. I don’t think Jones is worth a huge contract. Rather pay Dunbar and maybe grab a short term vet at CB. That would be bigly

Re: Dunbar demanding trade or release
Sunny we're on the same wavelength so much it's not funny.
All I see are opportunities to continue the Redskins way of signing the big name on the board (who's obviously looking to get paid) for multiple years of production that doesn't live up to the contract. Byron Jones went 40 games without a pick, as a corner that is absolutely terrible. If he wants to be paid top 5 money he needs to play like a top 5 corner. 40+ games without a pick, I mean he better be giving up a 10% completion rate to be worth top 5 money at that rate.

Yeah, it’s amazing how FEW INT Byron Jones has had, for the number of games he has played in. He’s very good at coverage but the team needs big plays for the money Jones would cost. Pass on him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: Dunbar demanding trade or release
I like Tre Boston but not Jones. For the kind of money Jones wants we could get a real playmaker. I’d rather bring back Fuller on a short and cheap contract and see if he can have a year like he had before Bruce traded him to the Chiefs. Kendall Fuller will be fairly cheap and if he busts, then not much lost.

Re: Dunbar demanding trade or release
The gift that keeps on giving:
Dunbar still wants to be traded or released after being denied new contract I really don't get it. Man you've been hurt a lot the past 2 seasons and you want a new coach to give you a new contract before having played a snap for him ? Stay healthy and play well this year and you'll get your $$$...
