Best pick in the draft. Best All-Around TE in the draft. Loves his snot nose style. That's all I can remember.

Not sure when he broke it, but they found it at the combine. Let's hope the plate makes his back stronger and not weaker.

Oh well, at least he's got a cool nickname out of it...Anthony "Frankenstein" Fasano.

Yes, because Witten was valued appropriately where we got him in the third round.
When asked whether Jason Garrett is the right head coach for this team: "I don't think there is anyone else that could. I think he is an unbelievable coach. We've responded to him and he has made us better football players, better people. If you watch us I think we play with a certain relentless spirit." --Sean Lee

Why do you guys keep harping on Fasano because "we took him in the second and Witten was a 3rd rounder". Witten was supposed to be a late first round pick at best, a late second round pick at worst, but by freak luck he slid to the third and he snatched him up.

But by this logic we reached big time on Aikman because we took Roger Staubach in the 10th round, Roy Williams was a reach because Darren Woodson was a second round pick, and on and on . . .

i guess it's not as bad a pick as i thought, since we're going to a 2 TE set.....but i still have concerns over some defensive depth.

That's like saying a quarterback drafted in the fifth round had better be better than Tom Brady because Brady was drafted in the sixth.

Ego....

There's a potential problem here. I think Witten is a great guy, and I don't think he'd let this be a problem....

but here it is....

If I remember correctly, Witten is still on his rookie contract. Fasano was drafted a full round ahead of Witten. Fasano's contract more than likely will be bigger than Witten's is now.

Will this cause strife for Witten? We already have a "divider" in TO.

Again, I don't have a problem with Fasano. I just worry some about egos stepping in. I also think this might make it tougher to resign Witten.

Maybe I'm wrong....wouldn't be the first time.
