That "trash" were some of our better players.

Its laughable watching some of you act like letting Cooper and Collins and Gregory go (and we didn't even let him go, we got beat out for him) is like letting three terrible players leave.
Collins and Gregory are not dependable. Cooper is not the 2018 Cooper. All three if they stayed would have been paid high salaries for average play and limited games. Time to go. Stop living in the past none of those three will play better for their new teams then they did in Dallas.

I think what's funny about these threads is all the fans who get all pissy when someone suggests another NFCE team could win the division or might be better. You'd think, based on their ranting and raving about how much a fan the rest of us aren't are, that the Cowboys were a constant division winner.

The Cowboys have won the NFCE 4 times in the last 10 years. FOUR. They've won the division 6 times in 20 years. SIX.

It's hilarious that some of you are so incredulous that others might suggest a different team could win the division.

You do realize that the Cowboys were desperate to bring Gregory back, right? I love how you guys are acting like it was such a smart move to let him walk. We didn't let him walk. He gave us, the Jones and their huge contract offer a massive middle finger.

Why? The Eagles have no All-Pro players like Parsons and Diggs.. Dak is light years a better quarterback then Hurts and do you really think they have a better coaching staff then the Cowboys? The Eagles are depending on Hurts to become a real quarterback not a running quarterback. They are praying that Davis will actually put up sacks and pressures in the pros that he never did in the SEC with possibly the greatest defense in college football history. I keep asking Eagles fans on the board what good team did the Eagles beat last season and all I keep hearing is Philadelphia should have beaten San Francisco in week 2 of last season.:laugh::facepalm:

Dak is better than Hurts. Eagles have better skill players now: wr, te, rb. Both the OL and DL is better and they added another good CB opposite Slay. They drafted good LB's, so I think they may take the division. I hope I am wrong.

You've got to be delusional to believe the Eagles are a better team than the Cowboys today.

Sam Williams is way better than Randy Gregory.

Those same 3 players have been here while we watch us miss out on the playoffs or lose in the first round. I don’t think we lost much but they could certainly regret it. But let’s don’t kid ourselves. These are not winners. We didn’t lose anything we can’t replace.

I can see if it was the Rams in division or the 9ers…but there’s nobody in this division even worth hyping up about. If the Eagles won the division as the Cowboys did? I would say they are favorites. Whoever won the division the previous year considers favorites even if there’s been this weird trend of no one being back to back champs.

If the 3 players you lost are not winners, what do you consider the other 19 starters, winners because you didn't get rid of them?

He might be. Or he might not be. You have no idea. It's likely if he does end up being better than Gregory, it probably won't happen in Year 1 because edge players like Williams take a year or two to get better and acclimated to the game.

You are proving my point. The Cowboys strategy is largely based on hope. They fill holes with cheap FA vets and rookies hoping that they catch lightning in a bottle with the FA or that the rookie is a sure fire stud right from the start.

Unfortunately it rarely works out like that, hence why this franchise has 4 playoff wins in 25 years and hasn't sniffed a SB over that period. They put too much faith in the "unknown".

I guess but isn't is possible some of the other 19 starters aren't winners too? I mean why are those three the magic players we needed to dump to get better?

And again, let's not use revisionist history here and act like losing Gregory was a huge win for us. The Cowboys WANTED HIM BACK and were willing to pay him $70 million. So right there, that tells you the Cowboys valued him immensely as an edge player. And now they don't have him. The kicker here is that if he had signed with us, some of you guys talking about how great it is he is gone would be praising the Cowboys for bringing him back.
