How do you think the Cowboys should approach this season?

[Verdict]

I am curious how you guys think we should approach this season. I think there are a couple of different approaches we could take.

Option 1. Go for it now. Resign Amari, trade for Adams. Resign Dak (whatever it takes) Resign Cobb. Sign a mammoth DT. Resign Byron.

Pros: Shot at winning it all next year.

Cons very short window. (See Rams)

Option 2: Prudent run this year. Be selective about resignings. Sign Amari. Resign Dak. (Or franchise both). Sign value contracts. Pretty much stay the course we have been on the past 5 years.

Pros: Slight shot next year. And the following years.
Cons: Need coaching to get us over the hump. Same as before except better coaching and less cap to work with.

Option 3: If you build it they will come. Think longer term. Tag and trade Amari. Tag or sign Dak. Draft a QB somewhere in top 4 rounds to develop.

Let Byron Walk. Be judicious in free agency. Use draft picks wisely.

Pros: Team cap and talent level gets better and better. Cap stays healthy. When you really think you want to make a splash and go for it the cap is there to do it.

Cons: Might hamper your chance to win it all next year. But the window stays open indefinitely.

I think I would go for option #3 unless opportunities indicate that option one or two are better in a given instance.

Somewhere in between
Dak is getting signed
Amari is a question mark based on what the deal was late in the year but we need his talent and I don’t want to use a premium pick on a WR
Sign a few of ours, sign one stud DT and a few value deals like Quinn was
Fix the secondary in the draft if no stud DT is available
The offense is solid and a few guys can change a defense
It may not get you a ring but it builds toward it
Once you sign Dak you really can’t start a rebuild

Option 4: Start the dynasty.

 

[blueblood70]

ALL IN , our window is cracked but not by much..they need to take a big swing and try to win it all in the next 2 years and approach it like that..


they all are short windows see ATL and Philly

 

[Kwyn]

Sign Dak
Sign Cooper
Let Jones go
Draft a CB and Safety in the first three round
Draft a tight end
Draft an interior defensive lineman

fill the rear of the roster with either prudent signings of current Cowboys or find similar players as free agents

24 years. Zeke and Ty Smith are closer to the end. It’s time to go for it.

They should approach it like hairy-chested Vikings without a care for anything, but pillage and plunder!
Under their leader's carefully crafted plans, of course.

Option 1. Sign a mammoth DT.

Moving on from Marinelli and being so thin on the dline is an opportunity to remake the dline, and maybe make a big splash. Particularly with talk of playing more 3-4, we might get a big DT, though Woods does have plenty of size to play NT.

Though DLaw's contract does make it harder to remake the dline into a 3-4, unless they pull a Greg Ellis and make him an OLB in the 3-4.

Jaylon LVE Lee DLaw
?? Woods ??

When we go 3-4?

 

[Hadenough]

Cant really go all in if Dak and Amari get big contracts. They have to let Byron go and some good depth players. They wont be able to afford Adams either. Impact players have to come from the draft. This team is going to rely more on coaching than any other year.

You can but you have to draft well
Dak’s won’t be expensive initially so you can add a couple FA with shorter deals
We have to find a couple DT’s, safety and CB
We have 2 CB who are FA and more next year
I would take a couple of CB’s in the top 3 rnds

Without going into too much detail. If you think you have a shot go all out to win the SB.
Look at the Eagles, Rams, Falcons. Truth be told the cap goes up over 10 million a year and this before the new TV deal. There are not enough good players out there to max out our cap.

 

[StarBoyz83]

Dallas doesnt have the cap to really make the roster much better this offseason but they can in the next couple offseasons though I'm sure.

 

[Jake]

Cons: Might hamper your chance to win it all next year. But the window stays open indefinitely.

A team that hasn't reached a conference title game in 24 years has a window?

 

[Mobinvans]

Go all in...we will be rebuilding in 2 years

 

[big dog cowboy]

Given the history of the Cowboys last 24 years in the playoffs, I'm surprised this is a thread.

They should and will go with option #2.

It is the Stephen Jones philosophy which he took from the Patriots...

 

[Blackspider214]

Why do people want to trade proven players for draft picks? This front office can't be trusted to build a team. Plus, this is not baseball. You don't think years down the line. You try and win now. I'll take what the Rams and Eagles did. They went for it. And it paid off with Super Bowl appearances. That is what you want.

 

[Playmaker247]

Sign Dak
Tag amari
Sign Byron
Sign Quinn
Sign Fat DT
Draft delpit
Draft DT in second
Defat TE I’m third
Go win it all

 

[ShiningStar]

Id like MM to stack up on D and let the O play itself. Instead of stopping our run game as Garrett insisted, we have 2 good runners, let the run set up the pass because our QB cant handle the load, which is ok he sstill a good qb.

The defense is going to need some help and we still need a true free safety. Its time to get one. With the DL attacking now, this should set up for the rest of the D to do something. But if he ignores the D as this franchise has been loving to do, no matter what he does on the other side just makes the Offensive good, but the offense alone wont get us over the hump.

No point in going for it all if we still leak like a dam. A few pieces and we will still miss the SB.

leaks have got to be plugged and he has to decide, attacking D, or finesse D. either way the D has got to come back. You set the D up, the offense will take care of the rest.

 

[Floatyworm]

When are people gonna realize this is a major rebuild????? I'd tear this down to the bone....recoup as many draft picks as I could (trade Zeke/trade Dak)....shed bad cap money...tank for Trevor Lawrence QB Clemson......and plan for the future.

This team is not a draft away from winning a Super Bowl....

It's rotten to the core....You got a lot of guys playing for themselves in this organization. Time to cut bait....clean out the cancers....And start fresh. It's the only way this is going to get fixed.
