Add the decision to take Lamb (a good player I really like) in the 1st round. They needed a WR with that steamy pile of dung on the other side of the ball? They need players at every level on defense. There had to be someone available that could contribute on D. No, the Cowboys want to play a video game offense with miles of passing yards and record setting points scored. They forgot one minor detail. They still have to play defense.
You will get no argument from me brother.
Like I said you already touched on the poor decisions surrounding who was let go.
But just for most of these other recent to semi recent guys there's Charlton (1st) Hill(2nd) were/are Cowboys busts semi busts.
Gregory, Jaylon and LVE.( 2 2nds and a first) all fall under the injury/character risk category
Awuzie(2nd) and Lewis(3rd) are incomplete but haven't shown more than basic competency or even worse at times
I'm not a DLaw fan(2nd) or if we want to go back a few years Crawford(3rd) who is widely acknowledged as an underachiever based on contract.
Even under different coordinators I still don't see the upward trajectory of development that I commonly see in most offensive draft picks. It's just kind of a general observation.
Defensive selection and development. Piss Poor in my eyes. Maybe better coaching could yield better production. Maybe it's a combination of the guy selected being not so good in the first place or a combination of both lacking talent and coaching.
Appreciate the discussion.
Go Cowboys
