Ladies and Gentlemen: Jerry Jones, everyone!!

Jerry Jones provides feisty — and profane — defense of his G.M. abilities

Jones does it because he trusts no one else to do it.

That's pretty much verbatim how I imagined he'd have a 'real' conversation about that.

I'm stunned that he did this. Of course, the local radio heads are eating it up, and rightfully so.

Would you trade London for the #4 overall pick in this years’ rookie draft?

Only a 10 team PPR league and I already have the #5 overall pick.

I am set at QB so I don’t need a rookie QB.
RB’s are Barkley, Hall and Walker.
WR’s thin imo - London, Aiyuk, G Wilson, McLaurin, M Brown, Shakir, Meyers
I only have Schultz at TE so Bowers is interesting but not sure I want to take him at #5 overall.

the NFL kicks off next week, go ahead and put names to those picks so we can assess

Assuming since this is PPR that MHJr, Nabers, Odunze will be gone, not sure I value Caleb/Daniels high enough to lose London and you mentioned not needing a QB. I have London over Worthy, BTJr, Ladd, Brooks, Benson, etc, so I'd hold him vs forcing a trade right before we get to see Cousins running the Falcons O

@Shanemansj13

I think you decision comes down to a couple thoughts:
- where do you rank London vs the 2nd tier of incoming rookie WRs and vs Brooks/Benson?
- are you planning to take Bowers at 5 and are worried he won't be there?

Yeah I was just feeling out his value. I think I NEED to see him play with Cousins to make any decision. I would definitely rank London over almost any non-QB rookie other than Nabers and Harrison. I think the only answer long-term is to let his value play out this season

Could easily be worth 2 firsts in the matter of weeks/months

I think you stick with London.

I don’t see anything at 4 in a rookie draft better than London.

The dude is shmoozing you with bull shit in shopping the 4. He also knows there’s not a ton of value there and if he can get a top end WR2 like London that’s better than anything at 4.

I put him on the trade block to see the offers so I wasn’t innocent here. He was the least likely player on my trade block I would shop but I wanted to feel out offers. I definitely want to see him with Cousins. He is only 23, pretty crazy

I think he finally has a QB. Year two for WRs generally present a leap for fantasy for the good ones. You can get yourself to a place where you reflect on finally getting to play with a real NFL arm and brain at the QB position, a brand new offense, and as you point out, he’s young for a 3rd year guy.

I only have 1 share of London in dynasty and I can't even get him into my lineup, he's my WR5 behind AJB, Puka, Evans, DJM, looking forward to him getting into the mix finally

Been in a league for close to 20 years. Started as just a re-draft and for a long time it has been a one keeper league. We are changing this to a 3 keeper league.

So…I have the 10th pick in a 12 team league. Who should I target with these two top picks. 10 and 15.

I am thinking AJ Brown or Jonathan Taylor in the 1st.
Gibbs or Etienne in the 2nd. Possibly MHJ.

Doubting Amon makes it to me at 10 but another target at 10.

I like all of those choices. Will Gibbs be there in the 2nd?

I'm pretty high on Etienne this year.

I'm pretty high on Etienne this year.

There is a Bama fan but he picks at #4. I think he could definitely be gone and one of those WR's could drop to 10 but I like the strategy of picking RB's early this year. I don't love the depth in the middle rounds. I am perfectly fine taking Etienne at 15 if he is there.

at #10 my list would be Amon, AJ, Gibbs, Taylor. Perfectly fine taking JJ if those two WR's are off the board.

So if it came down to Taylor or JJ...who are you taking?

I gotta go JJ no matter who's the QB.

I think AJ over Taylor. I personally like Gibbs over Taylor if he’s there at 15 you’re in good shape. You might see Gibbs and Etienne off the board at 15 though depending how much your opponents like RBs
