Doesn’t affect the draft.

cowboys should be drafting as if Gregory and Smith can’t be relied on any way.

If they don’t get a DE in the draft. Stop
Being cheap and sign Griffen. Problem solved.

Fully agree, sign Griffen. Also agree that it shouldn't affect their draft, but that decision should be made by the Cowboys, not godell.
Regardless, I don't think godell would pass up an opportunity to diss the Cowboys.

Some of you sound about as entitled and whiney as the Cowboys players.

Told you guys a few weeks ago, Goodell isn’t going to make this easy on Randy G (this was before we ‘signed’ Aldon). This guy legitimately low key hates the Dallas Cowboys.

You're in good form today
Yes I am but man, c’mon, 4 pages of whining and crying about how we’re getting screwed like it happens to no other teams. Jerry thrives on taking risks and these are two players who have a lengthy history of violating league policies and people act like Goodell should streamline the decision process to cater to the Cowboys.

If he wanted to screw us that bad he could have easily suspended Zeke for the Mardis Gras incident, could have investigated the Dallas nightclub incident, could have investigated the Vegas nightclub incident (not much there but regardless), could have suspended him for the security guard incident instead of a little call to the principles office.

Cowboys always get screwed right? Look back at the fines and suspensions over the past 5 years, excluding substance abuse or peds, between the Giants and Cowboys and tell me who’s getting “screwed”. Hint, one team has several more suspensions and fines and it’s not the Cowboys.

You know I can go on and on about this and will if challenged. The point is, every team has been screwed, it’s not exclusive to us so stop the belly aching. Also, it shouldn’t change our draft strategy one bit so it shouldn’t even be an issue to begin with but some fans like to play the “poor us” role. Pathetic. Pick up your straps and move on.

The Dallas FO would be foolish to depend on Aldon Smith Randy Gregory or Crawford to resolve their pass rush deficiencies for them. Neither of them are likely to become the next Robert Quinn. Neither one nor both figure to be a sure-fire replacement for him this year.

It really wouldn't be a bad idea at all, imo, to spend an early pick a DE like K'Lavon Chaisson to resolve their limitations at DE. There's no guarantee that their suspended duo will get reinstated this year in time to help the team, assuming they return at all.
I like that pick.

In that case, you act as if they're not coming back. Let's face it, these guys are so far removed anyways. They won't amount to shhhh

RG is a tool..does stuff backwards.. holds teams up so it fs up the draft but im sure both are reinstated..i mean how many times did Gordon get reinstated and quickly?

no worries. RG is just being his typical egotistical dictator self..

Lol, that’s the problem, I know some are joking but there’s definitely some that aren’t. I should probably do myself and everyone else a favor and just not click on these types of threads. I need to focus on Zeke, I can’t be distracted by my second biggest pet peeve...the Cowboys conspiracies theories, lol.

Don’t quote me on that though.

Don't get cute, & assume that they will ever be reinstated, or even if they eventually become reinstated, that they will produce.

Get the pass-rusher, and difference-maker in the draft who is younger, & has a higher ceiling:

I agree....hope this is the guy...

Problem is that Rog’s basement likely has a bowling alley, sports court, movie theatre, swimming pool, sauna, hot tub, lazy river, wine cellar, etc etc etc in it.

The owners were paying this slug 34 million a year.

I expected to see a washer/dryer, a mini-fridge stocked with Busch and Hot Pockets, a dart board, a pissy Davenport...

:hammer:

Bingo! People will complain about this while not realizing that it's actually doing Dallas a favor by making them not rely on unreliable players.

Draft as if you don't have them, because you don't.
I agree....unless they are arrogant like they were in the Zeke situation and I hope they aren’t.

Just learn to laugh and these things won't get your dander up.
