Hey it's news.... You'd have to think he's an upgrade over our current #23 Steve Slaton, who has not seen much of the ball. If we're going to get Slaton, not an opposite to Reggie Bush, you'd expect we'd put in a waiver claim for Choice. I believe the Colts have a higher waiver priority than us, so they could beat us to him. Yes another former Cowboy.

Choice would actually be a good pickup for now and the long-term.
-
I've always liked him.
-
Pick him up and Bodden up. See if you can get depth for a low price.
-
If we don't claim him Ireland is an idiot. Bring him in and see what he has to offer. Like was said earlier, he could be a nice addition for next year.
-
If everyone is in agreement then there is no way Ireland will sign him.

Sillies; we only claim/sign the mediocre and bad players from Dallas. Get it right.

Well thank god he used to be a Cowboy. -
Just as long as we don't try pitching it to him...

Well since Choice is mediocre, I'd say theres a chance. -
I like Choice. Hard inside runner. Not much of a second gear but tough as hell.

As to Bodden, IDK, seems to me if NE gets rid of a guy, there's a very good reason for it... Besides, we need S help and converting Bodden or any of our current CBs to S at this point seems useless.
As for Choice, Sparano has really forced the issue with Thomas and Bush. Even when he had LJ as the #3, we never saw him. Now it's Slaton in that spot...how much of him have we seen ?? Seems if he thinks Thomas and Bush both need breathers or aren't effective, he puts in Sexy Lexy...I don't see much difference between Slaton, LJ and Choice....all are mediocre backs at this point... -
If he was able to go to Detroit, he'd start there while Best is out.

Didn't realize Adrian Peterson was available.

No we need cornerbacks.

Met him a few times while at Georgia Tech and was a dude looked like a tree stump with legs. Not saying he's the next Alstott but we'lll kick the tires on him because Ireland can't help by dumpster dive Da Boys.
-
His career average is 4.6 yds per carry. He's only 26. I don't see how his numbers equate with "sucks".

Not only would he be a great pickup, but he makes perfect sense, being that he is a former cowboy.
he also ran the wildcat effectively...great ball skills, and physicality.
here is the problem though...Ireland doesn't like the good Cowboy players. he only signs the ****ty ones. so don't bank on it.eltos_lightfoot likes this. -

Will he help or hurt our chances to get Luck?
-
Just what we need, another cut player, and from Dallas nonetheless. Maybe this will be the spark we need to turn the season around.
