Great move for Dallas. Their #2 spot has been a black hole.

A 3rd round pick before the season (after the draft) is less valuable than a 3rd before the draft. This is because they get to use him for the year and don't lose anything from the 2025 team.

Do you even know who Pickens is?

If Tomlin couldn't keep him in line.....you think Schotty Jr can.....a rookie HC?

LOL.

All he needs to do is go deep. Have you heard of Ceedee Lamb?

The Steelers miscast Pickens as a #1.

Tomlin's passing game was pathetic. So was his plan for the passing game. Predictably, Pickens should have been pissed with him.

This could backfire for Dallas so badly.....LOL.

Nobody here has said anything critical about Pickens and his football talent.

He has a lot of baggage off the field. Issues with focus and effort along with significant character concerns.

It is legitimate to question whether this deal will work out for Dallas.

I don’t think anyone is concerned about his ability to play football.

How dare the cowboys try to get better

They absolutely should.

Also didn’t see anyone claiming a bad trade for Dallas.

Just that it is risky.

A risk absolutely worth taking for a 3rd round pick and @eaglesnut is dead on about Pickens not being a 1. He gets to play with a better qb in the right role for him. I expect Pickens to feast

Like what? Most of what you heard was invented by Tomlin and spread by him to reporters because Pickens wasn't taking that fake hard shit from a midget.

Yup, this is a great spot for him. Settle in behind the true Alpha and just make a few big plays a month.

Tomlin is as much of a players coach as there is, he isn’t making anything up, stupid.

Maybe this is why they didn't select a WR in the draft, had this in the works?

Really?

Mike Tomlin made up a sexual assault allegation?

Mike Tomlin is responsible for the NFL fining him for unsportsmanlike conduct?

It could work.

But Dallas is also not exactly known for strong locker room culture.

Could easily backfire.

Don't tell that to PDay.....dude is soft when it comes to people criticizing the Cowboys....

LOL.

Pickens has paid less NFL fines than Tomlin.

You don't have the accusation right either. Better sit this one out.

Nah.

You are acting like Pickens is a Boy Scout. He is not.

Normally I would expect some racism from this guy, but this one has me a little confused lol.

The same racist assholes who like to drag on black people usually pivot to thinking all women are lying about assault allegations. So if the athlete is black, pretending they never do that stuff takes precedence over their skin color.
