Gonna guess he doesn't say...."I'm the real GM, Jerry and his kid don't do anything. They pay me to do the job that they claim to do. "

Great insight. I feel like there are too many fans that get too concerned about what these moves are going to do for the Cowboys THIS year or immediate return. This FO built a flawed roster, one sided and top heavy. And they had bad contracts on the books. In the last year in a half I feel like they have been able to maintain being competitive and have succeeded in restructuring the roster in a better way. Not only that, but getting rid of most of these bad contracts with veterans.

If they Cowboys can go 11-6 or 12-5 again and do it with younger talent then thats a win for me. This roster had lots of work to do. The defense is now legitimate and young and talented. This Oline isnt going to be rebuilt overnight. Fohenko, Ball, Steele, we just need one of these guys to hit. If two hit, great. Tyler Smith we now have another tough guard. Can Biadasz develop. The Cowboys have to hit on some of these guys. Mcgovern and Williams didnt work out.

WR room has basically been revamped. RB is next. To me I am looking at 2023 if things go well as being the beginning of having a window to be a true contender.

McClay tap dancing around Tyler Smith starting.
He actually said....Put him in at guard and let him start there. Meaning they're going to play him at guard until they feel he's ready to move to tackle. So I expect there to be a competition between McGovern and Tyler this year. Tyler wins, IMO.

Yah if you listen to the 2nd one he actually makes it obvious pretty quick that Tyler is the guy.

As he should.
No silver spoons.....earn the job on the field, not by your draft slot.

Having said that, you can tell that is the goal.

Nope, not a chance.
We are lucky to have a silent GM thats happy in his role.
McClay is comfortable not being in the lime light, and does an exceptional job.
Cowboys true brain trust is starting to become recognized, just for doing his job, he doesnt even have to flash is board to the entire world for recognition.
