If Garrett was coach

I will bet that the draft board for McCarthy is much bigger than it was for Garrett, and that's not a fat joke. McCarthy has indicated that all they want are talented football players, and they will find the fit for them. Garrett drafted to a profile for each position, which by itself will thin out the amount of players on the board.

LVE was BPA. So was Taco, pretty much, we just got wiped out in 2017.

I remember them saying they had a 2nd round grade on McGovern and using the “blinking light” phrase they just used again yesterday on Lamb. I don’t remember them saying they had him higher than Hill, though. I do remember they took him even though he wasn’t a need because he was an obvious BPA.

if it was bpa tj watt would be the pick not taco and you don’t take a project hill with red flags over 3 safeties that you needed and could of had in rapp, adderly, thornhill.

TJ wasn’t higher on their board than Taco was in 2017.

How do you see this years draft shaking out? Would lamb be the pick? Diggs in the 2nd?

Just doesnt seem like the usual dallas draft to me.
The Gints are getting direction from Garrett as OC.

Their OL is being rebuilt and Garrett has some skills there.

His mistake was letting Marinelli have input.

It was his undoing. The defense collapsed and we lost and the offense was not up to taking up the slack.

probably the same, since jerry was inserting himself more and more in the process. as much as we want to give credit to McCarthy, its the scouts, ranking, ratings we do before the draft that dictates the picks. the needs were well known, although I am sure coaches had input. but when you have someone ranked 6th on your board and he falls to 17, you don't think you take. its a no brainer....we knew defense was going to be the game on second day, if Diggs was rated as top 32 player, at 51 you pick him and it fills a need. credit to scouting department and Jerry's patience in not over thinking and trying to get cute on draft day

That's pretty much it, the quarterback never blossomed and Marinelli never put together a playoff quality defense. Rebuilding the Dallas OL is what made them competitive again but the timing was no good, Romo was already falling apart. Dallas better make sure their defensive front 7 gets fixed because the NYG will be fixing that OL of theirs...

He's not so who cares. Why would anyone care about someone no longer here except the 2 times a year we face his offense.

In for multiple bad coaching decisions a year for the G-Strings' offense.

If Garret & crew was still involved, here's what our 2020 haul would look like through 3 Rounds:
1) WR Jalen Reagor
2) QB Jalen Hurts (Drafted to be a converted TE)
3) S/LB Some small, fast tweener guy

to me the past coaching staff was living off the 13 win season and just need a few parts mentality.

They didn't go after the scheme and correct the predicability/conservative nature of the game that was ingrained in their approach.

So nice to see a new staff and their doing things, that at least for now , feel like they will make a real change.

Go Mike Mc and team....

There should be an immediate seven day Cowboy Zone jail, like FB when someone starts a remember Garrett thread. Just for the emotional distraught.

Garrett is a moron
Anytime you can get a moron out of the room that is a positive
