Are we setting ourselves up to get fleeced in a trade?

Look for the Cowboys to use their extra picks this draft to move in the draft. I would not be surprised to see them back in the first round or early 2nd to plug holes on the OL and WR spots. This would prevent Jerry from making a blunder during the season.

Olave or Burks at WR and Green or Johnson at OL would be major gets this draft to help prevent stupid in season trades.

I know Jerry Jones has to be antsy after all the big time free agents are essentially gone. If these rookies don't play out of their mind and with a season possibly spiraling down the drain, I possibly see Jerry willing to pony up and make some blockbuster trades and give away 2 or 3 firsts. I would hope not, but if we don't do something soon or have the best draft in cowboys history, it's possibly setting the stage for such a thing. What do you think?
I can honestly see this as a trade down, "special teams" draft happening.

If there is a dumb trade to be made, Jerruh and Stephan will find it !

Yeah, I'm planning on avoiding bars while wearing it. Might walk into arcades with it, but I'm not going to go into any obviously dirty areas with it. I've worn tails there, which went over well, so this is just a step up hehe. Plus, I need the suit for conventions.
Well if I happen to run into you I'll say hello.

I'll try to explain what it's like when your football team is good lol.

Meanwhile if you spend like two grand on skee ball you can maybe win a toaster oven....and those coins that look like they would spill if you sneeze...never.

Haha, I probably will give that a go in suit. Likely would need help getting the skeeballs.

Pretty sure it's been the same broken record for free agency for the last 20+ years so antsy, no. It's status quo. They will pick up a few nice pieces in the draft. In no way shape or form are they 1 guy away from being a contender.

Why do people say this? Everyone here identifies with the team as being a part of it via fandom.
Why crap on it. You know what he meant.
npt whn it comes form place of fan truly believe they know more than a FO and entire army of staff that actually works and own a PRO Team does not keyboard and google search button's have to remind them they might want to scale back their perceived role in the team which is basically ZERO..

Nope. No way. Jerry would rather lose than win with players outside the family. We see how long he stays "mad" at the end of each wasted season. About a day or two before he's declaring his total confidence in everyone.

His plan was never to sign any good FA. They were going to dump all of their cash on Gregory before he bolted. Then we had this cap space that fans thought they would do something good with. Plan B was never to get better any more than Plan A was.
