Biggest Cowboy you whiffed on

[Parcells4Life]

for me it would be Newman and Troy Hambrick

I thought Newman was the next Deion with his speed.

I loved Hambrick averaging 5.1 ypc as Emmitt’s backup and his size and speed which Emmitt had lost at the end. I thought he could be a young Jerome Bettis.

Also loved Antonio Bryant and Derek Ross. The early 2000s were full of splash guys who never got it done consistently. Drugs seem to be a common factor except for Newman.

I whiffed on DeMarcus Ware. I wanted Shawne Merriman instead. Fortunately, the Cowboys did NOT whiff on that like I did.

Didn't like the dak pick. Thought hed be a bench warmer for years. Lol

Was so happy when we traded for this QB who i watched in college and he was a can’t miss future franchise guy..,Drew Henson.....

 

[CowboyStar88]

Roy Williams- Wr

Boy that was ugly

Me too.

Still remember me thinking why is Parcells going with Romo when we have Drew Henson? Apologies Coach Parcells.

In a preseason game against the Dolphins (I think), I saw pro bowl level closing speed and instincts from Matt Johnson on the one play that he was in on before getting hurt. And I’m not being facetious. I thought he’d be good.

I also thought Ben Bass, Ryan Williams and Alan Ball could be players.

 

[Cowboy from New York]

2nd contract for safety Roy Williams. Thought that was great at the time. Several fingerpoints at his teammates after getting burned, I threw in the towel.

 

[Cattle_Rancher]

Greg Ellis I thought he would be a double digit sack guy pretty much every year.

 

[Vanilla2]

Byron and Julius.

Those are pretty recent but the 90’s were pretty hazy after 95

Mr. Joey Galloway
Thought he was going to be greatness. He was good for other teams but due to the QB situation at the time he was never was able to produce here.

 

[Lane21Train]

I really liked Andre Holmes & Jesse Holley that preseason they were with the team... they didnt exactly pan out to be stars lol.

 

[Hardline]

I thought David LeFluer was going to be the next Jason Witten.

 

[Leadbelly]

Add me to the Drew Henson fanwagon.

Also, Danny Noonan. That was the first year I had gotten into the draft and thought he'd usher in the next Doomsday D era.

 

[Cowpolk]

Romo last season but not me the powers that be

 

[Aviano90]

Ir between Morris Claiborne and coach Jason Garrett.

 

[Jeffkills]

Mo, hands down...

At the same time; I remember screaming at my TV, and being completely furious the very second we drafted Barbie Carpenter..

God I hated that pick sooo much....

Best finesse player we ever had, AKA, total puss on the field...

 

[pancakeman]

I thought that Felix Jones was going to set the league on fire.

 

[pancakeman]

I thought David LeFluer was going to be the next Jason Witten.

You mean the next Jay Novacek?
