Spoke to my insider yesterday

[Reality]

This same news is all over the internet

I know .. I swear if I read one more news article about the guy being cranky over not getting to go the Senior Bowl ...

 

[Sydla]

Wait. Is Hayden considered a big athlete? lol.

 

[Aven8]

I thought they was staying away from these small school kids?

That's only at corner or safety now I hope!

let me preface this by saying I'm only sharing this with the board because there are certain members who requested I pass this along. Feel free to believe what I'm telling you, ridicule what I tell you, doubt the legitimacy of what I'm telling you or anything else. Doesn't matter to me as I don't gain squat for this.

The office I work at has a contractor who works on a certain project for our company but is also a member of the Cowboys staff.

So I Spoke to my guy. Asked him why I hadn't seen him in so long and he said his project for our company is about done.
He'll be around every once in awhile to check things out but not nearly as much as before. So that sucks.

Anyway I asked him about the draft, and like before he said he can't go into too much detail, but said we LOVE Wentz. Said we believe he's the real deal and that we've been watching him for some time hoping he wouldn't blow up the way he has. Said he didn't mind sharing this info because it's already out in the media.

Said Jerry really wants Tony to win but understands he's only 1 hit away from us being completely stuck w no QB. So the possibility of us going QB w the first pick is VERY real.

I asked if we'd trade back and he said that's possible if we don't get Wentz. I personally prefer to trade back and asked him what he thought, and he said "it don't matter what I think I'm telling you what THEY want" lol. And said they want Wentz, period. He also said the scouts get paid to know what they're talking about and that they say Wentz can make the throws has the size and ability they want. Said the scouts really like him a lot and he does too. More than Goff and more than Lynch.

I Asked about Hardy and he said it's complicated because Rod knows he's an exceptional talent but his attitude just sucks. He's been telling me this all year. Said reports about him being out of shape aren't really true, he was in shape, just late all of the time and just "did his own thing".

Asked about RB and he says they believe in DMC and expect him to be the guy for another year and draft RB next year.

Asked about 1 tech and he said Hayden needs to be coming off the bench but they aren't focused on a 1 tech specifically. Said they want big athletes that can move. I argued that we should get a huge 1 tech that can get some push and he said "again they want big athletes, period"
Says they are set in their ways and that's it.

Overall he was kinda cranky and I suspect it was because he wanted to go to the senior bowl but they didn't bring him. I wanted to talk to him more but he was on his way to "other projects" so he had to run. Wish I could've got more questions in, but I wanted to pass this along.

I know the Wentz fanatics on the board will probably appreciate this.

You've been pretty solid on this board and maybe i want to believe it, who knows
I've sort of lost hope that we would go Wentz in the first round. I think the Browns
are comparing him with Goff right now but there's three months to go.
Moving up ahead of Browns with cut the heart out of our draft, that might be
to costly because there are some really good talent this year regardless what
the buzz seems to be saying. No RB in the draft? I can hear the lamentations already.

 

[waving monkey]

Just don't move up to get him (trading away our 2nd this year, or 1st next year...plz no.) Stay at for and take whoever left they like best.

Look I agree, but if Wentz is the next QB with all the traits I'd have to think about it.
I'd even give a go light to pulling out my cap money to get a couple of big name FA's to
ease the lose of draft picks

Good post ! it all sounds legit to me.
1.They wont get a big heavy slow 1 tech that people want, They want big but fast , which eliminates many of the guys wanted by fans.
2. They want wentz not the other qb's So if they cant get him they might pass on the other 2.
3. Hardy is still 50/50 and he and Rod dont see eye to eye. probably comes down to if he will take the deal they offer.

I like wentz, mainly because I read he is really smart, but dont really know much about any of the qb's.

 

[big dog cowboy]

For 2m you think he did great but DMurray outgained by him almost 800 yards and 10 TDs OR almost doubled him

You are picking and choosing stats to make your case and you can't do that. If you want to compare yards and TD's you have to remember that Murray had 392 carries last year while DMC only had 239 this year. That puts your post in a much different perspective.

 

[big dog cowboy]

No RB in the draft? I can hear the lamentations already.

DMC, Turbin, vet, Dunbar. Get one early on day 3 if you have to but he better be BPA or it's a wasted pick.

 

[Manwiththeplan]

Wait. Is Hayden considered a big athlete? lol.

that's my thing, yes any team wants a big athlete at the 1 tech, but if we can't get one, why settle for a small non athlete?

 

[jobberone]

I've got a full blown case of Wentzmania, doc.

Take two aspirin and call @Doc50 in the morning.

For a single season, this looks good to this fan...at this point.

I'll take two of these...and just smile at Doc!

I still think the Browns ultimately go Goff. They need a 2016 starter and Wentz has too many traits that need to be coached out of him. Wentz isnt ready for the show yet and Goff is IMO

Taken into the discussion of OP then I'd be thrilled if we got Wentz @ 4 but the Browns aren't the only
worries [trade ups]! Goff makes a lot of sense [Browns] because that pick would need to start day one.
IMO,Wentz @ 4 avoids big problems post Romo.

Three months to go, jeez!

lets hope not

 

[Sarge]

The Cleveland part or a team jumping us part?

Both.

 

[TrailBlazer]

If Wentz is their number 1 QB, then something is wrong. I wouldn't mind trading back into the first for him though.
