Cowboys Trade WR Patrick Crayton To Chargers For 7th Rd. Pick
Posted By: ravenfan52 09-03-2010 , 04:19 PM
   

The Dallas Cowboys reached a deal Friday to trade wide receiver Patrick Crayton to the San Diego Chargers, according to Crayton's agent Fred Lyles. Crayton confirmed to ESPN that he'd been traded to the Chargers in exchange for a seventh-round pick. Crayton, who was drafted in the seventh round out of Northwestern Oklahoma State by the Cowboys in 2004, caught 196 passes for 2,888 yards and 23 touchdowns in 82 games -- including 33 starts. The reciever had sought a release following April's NFL draft -- when the Cowboys selected Dez Bryant in the first round -- and again after the Cowboys' final preseason game on Thursday.

It's all just posturing by the front office of the Bolts. Still a good pick up value wise IMO.

Are we talking about the same Crayton that dropped every pass thrown to him in the play-offs? Haven't got over that drop against the Giants in '07. I'm glad he's gone.

I agree with RW having to go, though. I'd go to war with Austin, Bryant, Hurd, and Ogletree.

The move made by Dallas was a sympathy move for Crayton. Crayton wanted to go to a team that had a chance to win. And I am willing to bet there were better offers on the table but because Crayton has been a good teammate and WR for us, Jerry traded him to a place he could succeed.

I for one agree with the move. I am predicting our WR's will have a great year. Even ROY!! (compared to last year at least) lol

Crayton is practically worthless for FF. As a starter He will either get you 5 points consistently, and then get you 20 twice a year

Crayton is garbage. He couldn't learn the cowboys routes in 6 years, what makes anyone think he'll learn the chargers in 6 days
