The whine feast around here reminds me of this site, after Micah was drafted.

How did that turn out?

Most of you will continue to whine and cry about every move, or non move, EVERY team in the league makes. I would suggest let Free Agency and the draft play out before whining about EVERYTHING.

The Rams were building their team throughout the season. Maybe we will take a page from the Rams. Not saying that, but am saying, the constant whining is for children.
Jerry loves ya!

Doubting still that Cowboys blind lucked into parsons isnt understanding the prep that all teams do on each team’s needs.
Philly wanted Devonta and offered a 3rd Dallas made a educated decision on Philly and Chicago was desperate for a QB. That put parsons in their lap plus a 3rd. It’s confirmation bias to reject due diligence

pizzaface boy, spalding? threw a dart at the draft board and it landed on parsons. every year the nice jerry lets one of the grand kids throw the dart to pick a guy for the team. Great man and is so giving to the family and friends and fans. you gotta love him, and his new kids.

Never been a fan of whining although as fans we do have the right to disagree with how things are being done at least perception wise. Like most fans, I only want the Cowboys to improve from last year and I have held that same opinion since 1960 although at 10 years old the understanding was different.

I do believe for the most part what we have seen this offseason is much like to many offseasons in the past where none of the adds were much if at all difference makers. This offseason appears much the same in that we have watched players we believe are vital to success and winning are gone. It is debatable that they were. It is also debatable that our adds this offseason are better than the ones that were jettison or bolted.

Cooper seems to be the most difficult player jettison. Was he good, sure, great, sometimes, top 10 WR, yes. Difficult to understand why he was let go and please do not give the money excuse because he could have easily been restructured. My opinion is there was something toxic either with the coaching staff with him or some other players. What I don't know. But now it has been 2 teams that apparently that were glad to see him go, at least from a coaching stand point. That should give everyone pause although I do believe that they could have possibly gotten more for him but not like the Hill or Adams case. Fans have to understand every situation is different like it or not.

The Gregory thing actually didn't bother me as much. He is a good player and could become great but it is 50-50 that he makes another great mistake and is gone for a year on suspension so covering your butt makes sense. Collins was again to me a no brainer, his time here was done especially when he showed to be no better than Steele. His fire seemed to have died some here, why, who knows but hopefully he gets the fire back and helps Cincy.

Will Fowler and Washington really be improvements over Gregory and Cooper? Hard to say but from the defense point, no one expect Quinn to come in and make the Cowboys a top 10 defense in one year yet he did so willing to wait and see about the defense. How will we use Washington remains to be seen but considering his cap number for 2022 is under $1 million, anything he gives us is a plus and maybe he turns out to be the guy Steelers thought he would be for us now.

The draft is where the Cowboys are pinning their hopes as it has been for a number of years now. We can whine about not signing change making free agents but to many fans of other teams tout how great their free agent hauls were only to lament them the next year. Tell me we haven't done the same. Hopefully the draft will help find another Parsons type player that improves the team be it offense or defense. The whining will stop if we win the division again but if we don't reach the Super Bowl, oh it will start again as it always does.

Best post of the year.

Well since we know you’re satisfied with the state of the franchise, we know not to take your opinion seriously anymore.

I get disillusionment I get Jones poor talent evaluation but denying the fundaments of business is unfortunate

Hey, be nice. OP may have dementia or something. lol

He posted an identical thread a week ago.

https://cowboyszone.com/threads/what-a-bunch-of-whinny-babies.494815/

I look forward to his weekly threads whining about whining. He's clearly the expert on what's whining and what's allowable. Like questioning players for wanting to maximize their money.

I don’t mind the whine for FA or draft. We havent won anything important in going on 3 decades, In FA we know what’s out there and what we have/had and you should be able to pursue who fits. We often don’t.

The draft is an inexact science so no one is going to agree about who’s great except when guys like Donald came out.

Whine away. I’d rather some in depth whine/thought than mindless devotion to Lloyd and Harry Jones.

Your funny.
Please show me your comments after the draft.
A broken clock is accurate every once in a while: What have the Cowboys done over the past quarter century that makes you think this approach works?
-This organization is not about winning anymore. No amount of Jerry speak will change that. Show me what he does not what he says. Period full stop
-My problem with this organization is the philosophy. This don't even attempt to compete for a SB.
-This organization has been stuck in limbo forever now. The fans have accepted it, the media doesnt care as Jerry is always a story
