Twitter: Updated DPOY odds per MGM

[Hawkeye0202]

I do not care about individual awards but there isn't a person on the planet, and that includes Parsons and Diggs, that thought the Cowboys would have 2 in the top 4 favorites. Not many teams do that but sure as hell not the Cowboys D of the last 25 years.

I do not know If there is a bigger or more wanted surprise than that.

100%.....two players in the top 4? Get out of here.......amazing. This alone is probably worth 3-4 of our Ws

Imagine we drafted TJ over Taco

Imagine we drafted TJ over Taco

we would have converted to a 3-4 base and not brought back Lawrence.

Tj watt cannot win it. He didn’t even show up in the last game.

But make no mistake, he wants it....bad. Read he turned down his team's advice to sit out last week's game with bruised ribs. He tweeted a could weeks ago that he's the sack leader even after missing 2 games.

It’s incredible that we got the best player in this year’s draft with the 12th pick, and traded down to do it.

Doubt that, highly highly doubt that. 3-4 or 4-3 Tank is a good player regardless

MEANWHILE....

We wouldn’t have Parsons or Diggs right now if we had.

I get the want for him to rush every play, but from a tactical standpoint, wouldn't having the offense guessing at whats comming with him be better? I expect him to start getting some picks soon from dropping into hot route lanes as QB's notice this pass rush. A good case can be made for both i suppose.

An in your face pass rush will do it every time just like we did with the wft. It seemed like every down someone was in Hiney's face on just about every dropback. It really paid off.

QB pressure = mistakes.

We would have not drafted a CB and been satisfied with Jaylon/LVE if we had TJ? I’m not sure I see the correlation

 

[blueblood70]

There are 2 reasons Micah wouldn't win.

1. Trevon Diggs stealing votes
2. His rookie status


He should win but the NFL isn't always fair in regard to these awards.

agree those are my sentiments as well..

would be a rarity to give Diggs the DPOY and MP the RDPOY given they are on the same team.. would be cool if they did..

It’s just reality….if the Cowboys take Watt that changes every pick from there afterwards….if we had TJ Watt our record wouldn’t have been bad enough to get Diggs when we did or Parsons.

Diggs isn’t true. Parsons maybe - probably.

we would have taken Diggs at 17 had lamb not been there. So we still probably would have taken Diggs later on in round 1.

Unfortunately this week, we need him as a spy on Kyler.

17 sack seasons are a dime a dozen.
What Parsons is doing is kind of rare...but the last time ANY one in the NFL had an 11 interception season was 40 years ago, I was 11 then

Diggs should be DPOY and Micah should be DROY. Clean sweep.

I’m not sure why people are undervaluing this. I’m w you 100%. Nobody has done what Diggs just did in 40 years. 40. That’s absolutely insane.

Seriously. I'm a Micah-sexual but come on, what Diggs has done is once in a lifetime type stuff. Cowboys fans better enjoy this.

Then we wouldn’t have had Lamb……

Yeah, that’s probably true.
