Damn!

Everyone with EYES could see this was a crap stained pick from the start!!! His college film was bad - sooo slow and didn't absolutely dominate like first rounders should.

Bobby Carpenter was leaps and bounds a better pick IMO. I just hate to believe we are this stupid.

Well I see a Taco Bell franchise in his future. Not as an owner, but as an employee.

"Nonsense" and "foolish" is you and others trying to play damage control. Give it up. Nobody wants to read it. This is a colossal screwup.



No, like you, when the annual budget gets 'lost', I tell the boss it's no big deal and we've done well in other years. Promotion, Here I come!



Making lame excuses for monumental blunders is what's "foolish". Not being able to handle reality is "foolish".

So, what you are saying is that you don't expect perfection from yourself, but you are okay being hypocritical about it when it comes to others.

Good thing bosses and spouses aren't that hypocritical or we would all be jobless and divorced.

Here's your problem - you ridiculously seem to think that not expecting perfection is the same as not caring if they get it right, and also the same as not expecting the team to strive for perfection. I absolutely expect the team to look at what caused the failure in their evaluation, and do everything they possibly can to get it right in the future.

If Taco like picks become a pattern, you will have a point to make, but as long as they are the exception and the team is overall having success in the draft, you do not.

:laugh:

I take comfort in the fact that my Raiders fan brother actually owns a #84 Antonio Brown jersey in his closet.
Oh, now that's funny! He should throw it at a coach, or a teammate of something like a bowling team.

Here's your problem - like others among the homers outrageous community, you can't handle it when your favorite team screws up. So you feel compelled to minimize it and make it as little of a deal as you possibly can. And you fail just like the team has.

I don't need your blessing. I know I have a point. The totally wasted 1st round pick does all of my talking for me. Save your fingers trying to make lame embody makes mistakes excuses.


Here's another good one for ya:

In releasing Taco Charlton on Wednesday, the defensive end became the first Cowboys player in the last 37 years to be released before the end of his third season.

Props to the coaches for not trying to mask a poor draft pick by forcing him into playing time that would ultimately decrease the level of play. Jason Garrett had claimed at the beginning it was going to be like this.

Jason Garrett had said he didn't care how a player came to the team.............high draft pick, big contract free agent veteran, rookie free agent making the minimum........the players that performed the best and worked the hardest would receive the most playing time.

And for every Taco, there is a Lawrence.......or Jaylon.............or other pick beyond the 1st round that far exceeded expectation.

Oh... oh my goodness. He really needs to not buy jerseys.

He sure can pick 'em!

But the Raiders have a track record of such moves. He's suffered for quite some time. Serves him right for not picking the Cowboys! I don't know where I went wrong with that kid...
