Nothing wrong with signing low cost veterans

The Eagles paid 4.66M total for 2024 to OLineman Mekhi Becton.

Becton was a bust for the Jets as the 11th overall pick in theh 2020 NFL draft.
- The Jets played him at OT and were dissappointed.

The Eagles sign him and put his 360+ pound body at OG.
- He was their starting RG including 4 playoff games.
- Result: The Eagles powered their way to a Super Bowl win with a mediocre QB...

I'll leave your dumb comment about Hurts alone.

But you do have a point -- someone your scouts evaluated favorably in the past who didn't really work out elsewhere .... particularly when they were on a crap team ... and way too fat to play outside.

Just when exactly did you volunteer and stand up...heroes!

Ever get a Congressional Appointment and earn the results of the Air Force Mafia that set standards for air defense? Again, teach me heroes! Hit them where they are, not negotiated hill tops!

What did Howard Baker do in our past, heroe?​


If you ever earned my respect, you would get it. Keep your cry baby reference point instead of function of leadership and the current window of opportunity. You merely rewrite your own bias. Ever coached? here it comes, anther stereo type. Ever even played in a Bowl Game or with future All Pros?

This is a football forum and you have no idea what the people on this forum have done in their lives.
Just because they don't choose to brag about it here doesn't mean they didn't serve their country.

Why would anyone want your respect you follow a leader that has prostituted our team strictly for his own gain.

There is no window of opportunity with Jerry Jones he keeps us three players and a coach away from being able to compete for a Super bowl trophy.

He has struck upon the formula to build the most valuable team in sports and collect the most revenue without gaining its ultimate trophy and you follow along blindly.
Calling people cowards from behind a keyboard you didn't serve in the military who are you kidding.
2016 was 9 years ago you can stop posting everything that happened back then we all know and the end result was the same we didn't win a Super bowl then either.

Black hole is a good way to describe what this franchise has become.
And yes it's most certainly a football fact you come here and waste your career.
Sure you might get paid a ton of money while you make Jerry his money but if a Super bowl is what you want as part of your life's work or is on your bucket list don't sign on here because it's not going to happen.
 
Aw heck enough preaching to Gomer the Homer.
Back to the point at hand of signing low-cost veterans we have even adapted a new strategy of signing low-cost veterans that were high draft picks.

There's always a chance that one of them could be coached up and actually make something of themselves possibly achieve some of their potential.

It's kind of like we decided to dumpster dive in a high class neighborhood just never know what pleasant surprise might turn up.

Your topic sounds like one of the best empty phrases from Mickey Spacknuglo.

.... And he has a lot of them.

Aikman played in the damn 90s not watered down salary cap 2024.

And for the record I don’t think Hurts is mediocre. I just don’t care to argue it. He’s an Eagle.

This place is so backwards. This place will tell you much we suck but will prop up the Eagles. It’s truly unbelievable. Everyone has a right to fan how they want. I’ll argue for Lamar, Burrows any day. It’s not a “other team” thing. It’s the hatred Eagles. Damn so you guys don’t hate Eagles anymore? Jerry has ran this thing to the ground….

I hate the Eagles nearly as much as I love the Cowboys (the organization, not Jerry and his act).

That’s based on real life encounters with their degenerate low life fans in Veterans Stadium. Only venue that ever needed a judge on premises on game day. Then when they got the new place they did away with that claiming “it’s a different fan base.”

How? And no it wasn’t. I live an hour away and dont bother going anymore because it’s people that want to get drunk and fight. No thanks.

Absolutely kills me that they win Super Bowls while Jerry and his ego are on a celebrity trip.

He is about to get his.
 
I hear you brother I live about 25 minutes from the stadium and to watch these dirt balls win championship after championship while Jerry makes us suffer is absolutely brutal.
I don't go to the stadium anymore either I served my apprenticeship at that and came away pretty much unscathed.
There is absolutely no way Jerry with all his money influence and power can be a true Cowboys fan and let the eagles continue to win championships while he can cuffs us with substandard coaches no participation in free agency and just a general attitude that he is not going to do what's necessary to win the big game.

you are drunk. you tell me to get lost. I ignore you. then you chase me done and challenge me...now you tell me get lost again.

really, drunk? this early in the day. consider joining AA. not a good way to go through life son
 
Message for the Hurts haters: Many QB’s have had the team around them and failed. This basic fact seems to be a mystery to some posters here. You just look ignorant.

Becton went to a team that, in an interview, said that knew he had no chance to start at tackle. He has the benefit of Jeff Stoutland coaching him to be a guard. He also had the luxury of being put in between an AP tackle and PB center. Roseman consulted with Stoutland before making the deal. Just adding a bit more context. You think Becton would have done the same here?
