I think he will give him a chance.

With Zeke, he didn't go cray till Zeke did during the investigation with the boob pulling stuff and then the alleged punching of a DJ and alleged assault of some wienie gate guy.
@aria was a paid protector of personnel and property at liquor distributing establishments so he understands the dynamics of how people treat each other at times of... umm... partying.
I was a bouncer at Charlie's on SPI, the largest spring break club in the world back in the 90s. I saw plenty of drunk kids. They were kids and did stupid crap like many of us did. Zeke was never proven guilty of anything. There were many more indiscretions by many of our former cowboy heroes. It's all BS. If you don't like or condone our players, why root for the team.

You know more than professional scouts and people making millions to evaluate college players.

You missed your calling.


A bit more, watch Cavanaugh and Voch's breakdowns on his tape. I honestly hope they're wrong on him, I've seen other scouts not high on him too.

I don't watch Penn State but yeah, not sold here.

And my calling pays me pretty damned well and I'm not looking to change it.

Do you mean Cherry Picking the most negative thing you read?
This is a pick that no one who knows anything about football is even questioning. Most consider this guy to be one of the top 2 defensive players in the draft.


Answered it above. I'm not trying to be the usual negative CowboysZoner. I know the media likes it. I'm hoping I'm wrong. I am seeing some pushback too.

I'm honestly just mad Horn and Surtain were gone.

So I’m not supposed to cheer for the team because I don’t like guys that bully other people and put their entire team at risk with selfish acts?

Yeah, a lot of former Cowboys did plenty of bad things but we live in a different society now and you can’t so the same dumb crap in public because they are always being recorded.

Ranch, this is really a dumb take in your part, not sure if you’re just messing with me or serious. You know damn well your players were expected to act differently 5 years ago then they were 20 years ago. This is no different and they have a responsibility to their coaches, teammates and even Jerry.

Your morality changes with the times? What's the point of bringing up different media standards if this is about how you personally feel about these guys?

Was it a smokescreen? Because soon as the corners were gone they traded down.....
Well that is easy... And I actually called it exactly how it played out before Denver even picked watching the draft with my son. That Surtain would be picked here at #9, eagles would jump ahead of Giants to get Devonte Smith knowing redhead would go for him if they didn't. We got an extra 3rd with very little risk. Smart move and much better player out of the deal

Sorry brother, I don't agree. I started coaching in the 80s and retired in 2017. We held all are players accountable. If the league, HC and owner let's them play, why should we be the judge and jury?

Jeff Cavanaugh is giving his expert advice and saying we should've drafted Slater...God I hate this dude

Slater IMO is the best offensive lineman in the draft which most likely be an all-pro at some point that's how good and dominant he looked on tape.

What fans seem to always fail to understand is that in the NFL, a pro bowler in one scheme is just a guy in another scheme. It’s sounding like he was the target at 10 instead of a CB and that Dallas kept it quiet....sounds like even the kid knew it. If Quinn says this guy will fit and excel in how he wants to use him, then why question it. Quinn seems to like attacking the line of scrimmage. Parsons sounds like an attacking guy who slips blocks, takes great angles, and makes tackles before blockers can get there...not to mention his pass rush abilities.
