Yeah, DJ has REALLY fallen short...

He's "only" started 28 of the 29 games he played in, and in the 30th, he was coming back from having missed the two previous games, then he missed the following game... in that time, he's caused 4 fumbles, recovered 3...

I guess you expect players drafted 15th in a draft to be perennial Pro Bowlers... either that, or you just automatically start growling when confronted with anything related to the University of Texas...

All I know is, if we can get a solid starter at pick 22 this year, I'll be happy Bear...

As for Ross, I rather doubt he's gonna be the "next big thing for defense in the league", but I'm confident that he'll be a solid starter for some team for a number of years... but hey, why would the Cowboys NEED a good cornerback, right??

Particularly if he went to the University of Texas... can't EVER have the Cowboys getting players from one of the top college programs in the nation...

It's a wonder how they ever got so good, with all the LOUSY players they have...

Seriously, I wonder if you understand how RIDICULOUS it is for you to dismiss ever player who ever played for the Horns?? I can understand hatin' on the team, if you're an Aggie or a Bear or a Red Raider, etc., but it's kinda stupid if you can't even give them credit for having some really, really good players... I mean, as a Horns fan, naturally I have little use for the University of Oklahoma, but I'm REALLY happy we were able to get Roy from them...
