So, we're not at the draft yet, and let's have a look at what we've gotten done this off-season.

  • Needed a FA Safety? Got George Iioka
  • Needed a DT? Got Hyder
  • Lost a slot receiver in Beasley? Got Cobb who can also be used on the outside
  • Need a TE? Persuade Witten to return
  • Need Lee to take a paycut? Done!
  • Need a DE to help with losing Gregory to suspension? Done! Get Quinn!
  • Trouble with DLaw's contract? Not to worry! Problem solved today!
And, again, this is all without the draft. This is what I've been asking for from the FO! This is more like it! Still would like a 1T DT and a full on safety in the draft. However, as far as I'm concerned, Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones have done their job. I think we're right now on the fringe on a Super Bowl contender roster. Now it's time for Jason Garrett to do his job. Coach them up, and let's get this assembled team to the Super Bowl. I've never seen us in the NFCC, but I think the time has now come for us to get number 6! For how this off-season has gone and how I think this season will go, as TO said, get your popcorn ready! Do your job, Garrett! Bring one back to Dallas!

Hyder is a DE
Covington is a 1Tech

All in all— some solid work was done. Quinn trade is an A+. Cobb is a savvy signing— B+. Covington and Hyder are nice depth B-.

Iloka is an average S... C-.

Witten and Lee moves are good for leadership and veteran depth.

Resigning Law is an A+.

Right, forgot about Covington! Still, the Fo has done their job.

Expectations are higher, certainly this season. I counted a divisional appearance a success given where I assessed the team going into the year.

Simply put, there needs to be progression.

I agree, and this roster should be able to take us to the Super Bowl if Garrett does his job.

the 1 dt everyone wants doesnt exist in Rod's scheme. First thing he told woods when he came to the cowboys was to lose some weight. I want a fatty thats not moveable and can collapse bridges. but im not sure if its ever gonna happen with this scheme.

All that and Fred coming back, another year for Jaylon and LVE and a new young geniuse OC. Haters are really going to hell to search for negatives. No doubt they will make some up.

Well, this Fo has been making interesting and, dare I say, unusual moves for our normal off-season. Maybe we will get a 1T. Hope so anyway.
