So we're just supposed to forget the whole Mingo for a 4th rounder?

[fivetwos]

Had a QB suffer an avulsion in his ankle. He missed one game. Had surgery at the end if the surgery and didn't miss spring ball

Yep everyone is different. A torn hammy is one thing. Was supposedly separated from the bone though. Ooof.

You’ve got the mental thing, plus very likely being told not to run (I specifically remember Jerry saying “we don’t WANT Dak to run” a few days before the injury). He ain’t running much this year.

I really couldnt know what to expect. Folks can say what they want about Prescott and his shortcomings, same with the team overall, but the season is absolute toast if he goes down early similar to last year or 2020.

I still don’t see how this is a big deal

If any other team traded a 4th for Mingo no one would bat an eye

I was reading the Steelers fans being pissed off they only got a 3rd for Pickens.. and one guy said..

This is the team that gave up a 4th for friggen Mingo !!

Avulsion are bad. I had a similar injury a couple of years ago. 1 and a half inch tear....didn't completely come of bone. Rest and therapy took care of it, but I am far from an elite athlete. Just like a torn ACL, you can walk, but you can't run. Most of these injuries make the area stronger. You are right, we need Dak to return to form, ASAP. If he gets hurt later in the season, Milton may be ready, be an early injury and it's all over

 

[Ranching]

You never played ball, you got all injured running down cattle.

"Buck you"... said your horse, get off, tell it to the cop.

Injuries cut my playing days to 5 and a half seasons. Worst injury I ever had happened when I got bucked off a horse and dragged aboit 40 yards. 18 years old, drunk as all hell on Spring Break in Mexico. Required a complete ankle reconstruction. Worst part was when they cut off my custom made size 15 kangaroo skinned boot!

If you really feel that way then you are 100% clueless and need help. Mingo won’t even be on the active roster after this trade and will probably not even make it out of camp

no i do not believe that i think the jones will keep mingo to save face that they made horrible trade and wasted a fourth round pick the same way they kept lance last year.

 

[ElGatoGrande]

Cmon man...its only a 4th. Hit or miss. Same as Mingo... hit or miss. At least we swung

,,, not sure why some people are writing mingo off already. Last season was not conducive to evaluating WRs at all.

 

[BoyzBlaster]

I love how the Cowboys are so bad that the fans have turned on each other lol. This thread is comical.

Definitely a lot of zoner on zoner crime.

A complete tear from the bone of a hamstring is better than being partially torn. At least as far as healing goes.

Many 4th rounders don't last long in the NFL

 

[McCarthyMustGo]

that fourth could have gotten us a better RB for starters
or maybe a better DT
so anyone thinking it was worthless is an idiot

When you look at Dallas 4th round picks in recent history V Fehoko Jr. , Jake Fergason, Jabril Cox, Josh Ball, Reggie Robinson, T Biadasz, I think Mingo is as good as any of these players.

 

[atlantacowboy]

Seriously though, both guys might work out well here. I'm ok with them taking swings at wr. At least now it's REAL effort, not talk. Time will tell if we got the player right.

Pickens is the kind of rental you make when the team on the precipice of competing and need that one more piece. This team isn't close to competing bc of the defense. I just get tired of watching the Jones morons make the same errors over and over. They don't learn from mistakes. So, now we have our Irvin, Harper, and Aikman. Maybe one for these RBs becomes Emmitt Smith and we can then relive the 90's. Oh wait..... the defense.

 

[kskboys]

Lol, I highly disagree.

I understand that and I respect your viewpoint. You should work on that w/ others.

So since we suck at drafting in the 4th round anyway, might as well throw away the pick?

 

[KJJ]

I mean we all did a double blink last year when that trade was announced. It’s comical at this point. Can someone please post the Bevis and Butthead pic.

That trade looked bad the day we made it. It just keeps looking worse.

 

[KJJ]

That's bs.

He wasn’t worth a 4th round pick. In 8 games all he had was 5 catches for 46 yards. We saw why Carolina got rid of him.

 

[Momanpr100]

3 wrs is a must in todays league

We saw a bad qb that couldn't throw him the ball and we saw a big physical receiver that blocks well and can catch the ball.

Sure he is when you look at what players were available. You might have your 3rd receiver for pick 114 and he is on a rookie deal. Look at his production in the SEC when Dart was his qb.

No, you’re supposed to obsess over it for the rest of your life until you are reduced to a Gollum-like state, choking out the words “4th round! 4th round!”
