Imagine not drafting dak, or Micah or CeeDee
speaking of Dak..Do you think he's 100% healthy? I really don't. I think his ankle and his shoulder area aren't all the way back. If we can get a bye, that would help. Dak at 100% is very dangerous IMO.

Im not losing sleep over it....just enters my mind everyso often......I have to even ponder, that noone on this board EVER!!!!!!!!!! revertes back to any particular draft...........especially not winning in 25 + years.....so yea I will still ponder.....Jerry once said "Cant win the superbowl every year!"

He has been correct the past 25 years. :lmao2:

Just thought I would get that in before the Jerry bashing starts. :muttley:

If the Cowboys had Watt, would they have taken Parsons or gone CB?

Well depends on how the Cowboys really viewed him as a player. They started him at LB in a more traditional 4-3 role until injuries made them play him at edge. They supposedly viewed him as the best edge rusher in the draft but seemed to of wanted him be more of a LB than edge based off TC and PS

Hopefully Jerry is correct, and it was not the JWB speak. That Gregory and Gallimore will be back next game. As well Hill will be back also.

This will be the 1st game the projected front 4 will be on the field at the same time.
WE WILL NEED THEM. The WFT is difficult. Great timing 2 get right.All these next games will have a playoff feel 2 them. We must have a mindset that this is the real playoffs'. They start next week in my mind.

You know how they say players will hit that rookie wall.
Well, maybe Dak is hitting a wall a bit, having not played for almost a year. Then with the ankle, the shoulder, the calf. Could be taking its toll a bit.
Now I think he will be fine, and these 10 days will help. But I wonder if that is part of the factor as of late.

100% agree. Accumulative affect. He's been thru alot in a short time. A healthy Dak mentally and physically is a great thing. If he finds his groove, watch out.

He might not be 100 percent but I definitely think his timing is off and he doesn’t trust the line

the mini bye this week will make a difference for sure

and having the super duo linebacker core of Parsons w/ Watt.......even greater than the doomsday defense of the landry era.....I cringe everytime I think about it Taco bum was selected instead of......could of should of.....but its great to ponder..
Cowboys wouldn’t have been in position to draft Parsons. Drafting Watt is a change in history and, therefore, everything after that is changed. They would’ve either been drafting higher or lower. It’s the whole time- space continuim thing. Perish the thought, but Parsons might would be a Giant (probably not - they draft dumb), an Eagle (possibly not since they’ve been looking for WRs), or the No-Names (likely).

wont perish the thought, with Garrett as the coach, might have not made a difference at all......and could have enforced drafting parsons.........

If the Cowboys had Watt they probably aren’t picking at #10 last year or #17 the previous year. So are you willing to give up Lamb and Parsons for Watt?

But we already had cooper, why draft lamb? You can ponder draft position....but with Garrett as coach.....all kinds of scenarios play in......great thread I started huh?
