Pickens - "I'm grateful to be here. I'm grateful to play with Dak."

[Rayman70]

Just win son. All is forgotten if ya win games.

He also said, "I'm grateful that punk Jourdan Lewis is no longer here. If he was, I'd try to rip his head off again." I swear he did.

Lol, do we play Jacksonville this season? That would be fun.

A wise man once said “winning is the best deodorant “.

The full story on Pickens as a Dallas Cowboy is yet to be told, but I love his attitude, right now! Let's hope the good reports continue throughout his stay with this team. It's off to a good start at this time, without a doubt. The news of this signing was as good as it gets, imho.

I'd like to take the opportunity to welcome him to this team. May his performances in the future continue to be as impressive as his arrival. This is right from the heart, from a diehard fan! Welcome to the Dallas Cowboys, Mr. Pickens, and may the wind be at your back . . .

Let's take a vote as to whether my response was negative.

IMO it was more "don't care what you say, we'll know the answers later on" born of age \ wisdom having seen these movies before.

I'm really quite shocked at how easy some of us so easily buy into it. I know we're fans, I know we're desperate...but fool me once....fool me 30 years?

Let's be cautiously...optimistic. We got a guy FURIOUS we aren't ecstatic and kissing Jerry's tush. It's weird.

It's okay to wait and see and then go totally nuts if it pans out.

What's he supposed to say?- "To Hell with all y'all."

Remember when people said trust the players that said "Dak is a GREAT leader".

Yip exactly right

We talkin about practice... practice? That wise man?

If he has any sense at all, he will give his best this year and behave himself.

If he cannot; or does not perform, then adios

Plus he’s in a contract year. So if he doesn’t perform and act a fool,it will diminish his Bag. You would think/ Hope he gets that. The talent is there. He can set himself up for a massive payday or cost millions. Dallas is certainly the stage to show out.

And if they both get doubled then Ferguson and or one of the RB’s can feast.

Hopefully we focus on the run , control the clock, play action where Dak is comfortable and not try to be Superman….thats where the issues start for him.

Need Ferguson!! Hopefully last year was injury results related and he takes the next step. Like he was two years ago.

 

[OGSixshooter]

Prescott is the best QB he has played with by far. If he’s available for every game, I think Pickens will feast. Lamb will be drawing double coverage.

I would agree with you if we get 2023 Dak. 2024 Dak? Yikes...

 

[OGSixshooter]

10 Months later (SpongeBob cartoon voice):

Pickens tweets "Dak ain't it!"

 

[Rockport]

Need Ferguson!! Hopefully last year was injury results related and he takes the next step. Like he was two years ago.

Ferguson brings with him a nasty attitude towards the opposition. We need more of that from him and others desperately.

Bigtime taxes in Pittsburg, Zero taxes in Texas! He’s gotta love that…

Players pay taxes on their game checks where the game is played, not where their team is based. If state income taxes are an advantage what is the Raiders’, the Jaguars’, and the Titans’ problem? Stop with the ignorant state income tax crap. It sounds as stupid as it is.

 

[Kwyn]

What exactly is his longstanding relationship with Lamb prior to this trade?

They’ve just known each other through social media and worked out together. I don’t think they’re like BFFs or anything.

When CeeDee posted the Ralph Wiggums wave tweet in the early hours before the news broke it was a wink and a nod to Pickens who has, several times, made waving to the camera a social media thing for himself.

Clearly showed that he and Pickens had been talking.

Darren (Voluntary) Hambrick. AI’s practice rant is my all time favorite tho

He probably is. Never seen homeboy quit. Can't say that for all Cowboys players.
