Since this team will be hamstrung with the highest paid mattress spokesman for years to come, they need to revisit the run game philosophy. The line from Zeke's rookie season is no more. They should upgrade a few Oline positions. Tyron can still play, but getting 12 games out of him might be optimistic at this point. LG is a problem. And they should not have given Collins his job back. The only way I can see getting the most out of Dak is to improve the run game to protect him.

Then there's Zeke. He has one more big $ year on his contract, but they should trade or cut him. Draft 2 RB's in the lower rounds.

Draft: G, T, LB, RB, LB, G, RB.

Fix the ol and draft rb early (by round 3). Then dak can maybe play better and win. Gotta be able to run the ball.

I’m not drafting much defense other than one lb/dl if best on board - rest needs be ol/rb/te/wr. can resign Gregory/Kearse/some our safeties to keep some d players.

need draft mostly Offense. Okay drafting 1 d player early. Either lb/dl if best player. Other than that need center/ol, wr, te, and rb. So mostly offense.

Unfortunately , the defense needs at least one, if not two ,Dts, possibly another De, and another linebacker.while I agree the offense needs help, it won't matter if kellen Moore is still on. It would be dumb to ignore the defense entirely.

You know good and well Jerry and McClay don't believe in traditional 1T's.

Yep.

While at it please eliminate in every single game Wilson catches a pass and flips it to someone else.

Ridiculous and desperate.

Not to mention it doesn't work.

That's the definition of "genius" in Dallas.

Garrett was one also. What a joke.

As long as the offense lines up in shotgun most of the time the running game will remain an afterthought.

Our former QB OC loves to pass, and will continue doing so.

Drafting a running back seems like a waste when they refuse to use Pollard more when Zeke has a torn PCL.

Fix the OL and consider adding a fullback. That’s how we ran the ball in the 90s.

I like your draft order . And your smart enough to figure out not only improving the line through the draft you need fresh legs running the ball . Ease Zeke into his next line of work , Campbells chunky soup spokesmen with a guest appearance by Donovan McNabb . Should play well in the Dallas Philly 40 and over demographics .

Second order of business I’ve heard people say fire Joe Philbin . And you know what get Marc Columbo back coaching the Oline. I want spit and nasty pancaking defensive ends the line needs to dominate again .

Last but not least Dalton Schultz has played way beyond anyone’s imagination. Lunda Wells is his position coach . Be creative promote the guy to OC and fire Jason Garrett’s stand in , Kellen .

In too many games against better defenses then the skid row of the NFC East the Cowboys were firing blanks. 17 stinking points in a home playoff game !! 9 points against the Chiefs . But Jones and MM don’t have the golf balls to make that happen.

Fix the run game, fix the OL, fix the LB's, fix the place kicker, fix the run D, fix the penalties, replace all the guys that we lose due to our terrible cap situation. Lol, I have a feeling next year is gonna be a looong one

Need that G in the first.

Difficult to find a RB at Zekes level.

if it were easy, everyone would have a warrior like Zeke.

Couldn't agree more, a bug part of fixing it would be accepting that Zeke is no longer a premier back and moving on from him.
