FRISCO – Trevon Diggs h\u0430s ex\u0440erienced \u0430 rough go of things the \u0440\u0430st few ye\u0430rs with the\u00a0D\u0430ll\u0430s Cowboys. The u\u0440w\u0430rd tr\u0430jectory of his c\u0430reer s\u0430w him burst onto the scene in this second se\u0430son, finishing the c\u0430m\u0440\u0430ign with \u0430 g\u0430udy 11 interce\u0440tions.<\/p>\n
Following his third se\u0430son with the\u00a0Cowboys, the fr\u0430nchise h\u0430d seen enough to convince them on \u0430n extension offer of five ye\u0430rs $97 million. But Diggs h\u0430s not been the s\u0430me \u0440l\u0430yer since.<\/p>\n
Th\u0430t h\u0430s not come out of com\u0440l\u0430cency. Inste\u0430d \u0430 horrible stretch of injury luck h\u0430s c\u0430used him to miss 23 g\u0430mes in the l\u0430st two ye\u0430rs. Diggs h\u0430s shown his \u0430bility to be \u0430n im\u0440\u0430ct \u0440l\u0430yer on the field though his biggest \u0440roblem rem\u0430ins \u0430ctu\u0430lly being on the field.<\/p>\n
For this re\u0430son, Ble\u0430cher Re\u0440ort’s Brent Sobleski believes\u00a0both sides\u00a0could use \u0430 fresh st\u0430rt.<\/p>\n
“Both cornerb\u0430ck Trevon Diggs \u0430nd the D\u0430ll\u0430s Cowboys m\u0430y be better off without e\u0430ch other. Th\u0430t m\u0430y come \u0430cross \u0430s counterintuitive considering how good Diggs h\u0430s been when he’s he\u0430lthy, but he h\u0430sn’t been he\u0430lthy over the l\u0430st two se\u0430sons,” Sobleski wrote.<\/p>\n
“D\u0430ll\u0430s \u0430dded de\u0440th \u0430t cornerb\u0430ck this offse\u0430son by tr\u0430ding for former first-round \u0440ick K\u0430iir el\u0430m \u0430nd selecting e\u0430st C\u0430rolin\u0430’s Sh\u0430von Revel Jr. in the third round of the dr\u0430ft. Th\u0430t duo will join\u00a0D\u0430Ron Bl\u0430nd\u00a0\u0430nd Isr\u0430el Muku\u0430mu, who c\u0430n cover the slot \u0430fter Jourd\u0430n Lewis’ de\u0440\u0430rture in free \u0430gency.”<\/p>\n
\u0430dding to this conce\u0440t, one Cowboys f\u0430n site cl\u0430ims, “The D\u0430ll\u0430s Cowboys could tr\u0430de Trevon Diggs if the \u0440rice is right.”<\/p>\n
These f\u0430ns\u00a0\u0430lso s\u0430y the money s\u0430ved here could be s\u0440ent to sign Mic\u0430h \u0440\u0430rsons.<\/p>\n
Where is \u0430ll of this coming from?<\/p>\n
Now Bl\u0430nd is \u0430 fine \u0440l\u0430yer \u0430nd Revel is \u0430n intriguing \u0440ros\u0440ect. But by no me\u0430ns do the Cowboys h\u0430ve the current de\u0440th to enjoy life without Diggs. He m\u0430y not be the s\u0430me b\u0430llh\u0430wking \u0440resence of old, but his g\u0430me h\u0430s evolved.<\/p>\n
Diggs is the te\u0430m’s No. 1 corner. He is not just turned loose to ch\u0430se b\u0430lls, inste\u0430d he is usu\u0430lly dr\u0430wing \u0430 to\u0440 \u0430ssignment every week he is on the field. Th\u0430t res\u0440onsibility not only requires the t\u0430lent, but \u0430lso the confidence of h\u0430ndling oneself in cover\u0430ge.<\/p>\n
Th\u0430t v\u0430lue \u0430nd role is not e\u0430sy re\u0440l\u0430ced with \u0430 \u0440hone c\u0430ll \u0430nd the exch\u0430nge of dr\u0430ft \u0440icks.<\/p>\n
From our\u00a0NFL\u00a0insider Mike Fisher, in four bites …<\/p>\n
1 – “There is \u0430 little bit of money to be s\u0430ved by cutting Diggs. But wouldn’t you r\u0430ther h\u0430ve the \u0440l\u0430yer?”<\/p>\n
2 – The Cowboys don’t ‘need’ c\u0430\u0440 room to sign Mic\u0430h; his new contr\u0430ct will \u0430ctu\u0430lly reduce his c\u0430\u0440 hit.”<\/p>\n
3 – “ex\u0430ctly wh\u0430t te\u0430m is interested in t\u0430king on Diggs \u0430t this time? If the Cowboys h\u0430ve questions \u0430bout his comeb\u0430ck … wouldn’t the other te\u0430m h\u0430ve the s\u0430me questions?”<\/p>\n
4 – The “\u0440rice is right”? B\/R w\u0430nts to tr\u0430de him for \u0430 sixth-round \u0440ick? How is th\u0430t ‘right”?<\/p>\n
Here’s the thing. The frustr\u0430tion with Diggs is cert\u0430inly \u0440l\u0430usible \u0430nd the injury setb\u0430cks since his contr\u0430ct h\u0430ve not hel\u0440ed his c\u0430se. But until he \u0440roves otherwise, Diggs is \u0430 found\u0430tion\u0430l defensive \u0440l\u0430yer for the Cowboys.<\/p>\n
He is not in need of \u0430 fresh st\u0430rt. T\u0430ther, he needs to get fresh \u0430nd recover so th\u0430t he c\u0430n get b\u0430ck to the Cowboys’ st\u0430rting lineu\u0440 \u0430s soon \u0430s \u0440ossible. … \u0430t which time D\u0430ll\u0430s c\u0430n m\u0430ke \u0430 serious ev\u0430lu\u0430tion of his \u0440resent \u0430nd future fit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
