This tweet sums it up perfectly...
LOL
He made the joke about how it just hasn't worked out at safety but all I could think of is that once Grant went off the board, it was an easy layup to go get Moehrig.
Knowing what they are trying to do defensively I don't know how they could go into the confidently go into the season with what they have at FS.
I would argue that FS is the most important position for us in this scheme.
They have to have an ace up their sleeve. A trade, a CB conversion, or Earl Thomas needs to happen.
Quinn is going with the same free safety he had last year lol.....why wouldn't he?Knowing what they are trying to do defensively I don't know how they could go into the confidently go into the season with what they have at FS.

So are we going to stop pretending like the safety position is why we haven't won anything in 25 years? Are we going to pretend like if we had a free safety last year we would've won a ring?
THIS - Is Cowboys Zone8 out 11 were draft picks to make the defense better, and not an offensive pick until the 7th pick, and people can find something to complain about
If there was a safety valued in the draft where they were picking, they would of gotten one. If there was a FA they valued, they would have taken him.

What do you mean upgrade? I think anything over what we had last year is a "upgrade". Fact is, we all want Troy Polamalu, Ed Reed, Earl Thomas...this is who we think of when we think of the safety position. But because we have trash at the position fans will take anything without realizing that most of what they want is trash. These safeties we covet every year go on to be exactly like the trash we have at the position.......No 1 player would have won you a ring last year, that doesn’t mean you refuse to upgrade a position
I agree. People are just heartbroken they passed up Moehrig who the whole league passed up on at least once...is Moehrig a "upgrade" over Kazee? Probably not.8 out 11 were draft picks to make the defense better, and not an offensive pick until the 7th pick, and people can find something to complain about

I'm not gonna give them a pass for how they've handled the position over the years but I'm not gonna knock them for not taking one in this years draft just for the sake of taking one....that's not the correct approach either.
Oh of course they do. They don't value the position. Its clear. I'm just not sure if they should over other positions.....Kazee is coming off a serious leg injury. We have no idea how good he's going to be if he can even play at all, frankly.
They have butchered FS for years. It's not just this draft. It's every draft. They clearly think FS is a position, like DT, they can throw some slop at and hope it works out........... year after year after year after year after year.
I'd say Giants ignore LB too...when's the last time they drafted a good linebacker? Seems like its been 20 years lol.Eagles ignore LB
WFT ignore QB
Cowboys ignore FS
