Quincy Carter was the worst QB in Cowboys history. Jerry Jones biggest mistake. Set the franchise back for 8 years.

What are some others?
Ware
Witten
T Smith
J Smith
Lee
Martin
Frederick
Elliott
Just some that come to mind no order, as for value since he was in essence a early 5th round pick if he becomes a very good QB he will be one of the best picks, take away Elliott and 2016 most likely doesn't happen for Dak, if everyone is honest taken the whole 3 years and where these other guys are Dak at this point is a good at time but inconsistent QB so no matter what anyone believes the next 2 years will either make him one the best all time picks or just another pick they almost got lucky on.

Rookie of the year, 2 pro bowls, 3 winning seasons, playoff win, playoffs two out of 3 years, 13 wins his rookie year, big new contract, leads the league in last drive wins, ect....ect....

Did Bongs resume look anything like Dak's?

Much to your embarrassment it surely didn't.

So now you have to take away players to make Dak look bad? LOL

Dak is actually 4-3 without Zeke.

What do you get if you take Emmitt away from Aikman? 0-2 Couldnt win a game without him.

Zack Martin a future HOFer so no. So is Jason Witten and possibly Tyron Smith.
Wow. Martin? Witten? Frederick? Really?

Only 6 players in Dallas Cowboys' entire history have made 4 all-pros in a 5 year span:

Chuck Howley
Emmitt Smith
Randy White
Bob Lilly
___________
Larry Allen

I don’t think he was asking if Dak was the greatest player drafted, I think he was talking more about value for where he was picked

Quincy was rated as a 4th round talent, and his best year was 17 TD's and 22 INT's. We took him in the 2nd. How was he a good pick?
Only QB between Aikman and Romo that got us to the playoffs. I forgot we took him early actually. As I said though originally Dak is both a better player and better value.

He didn't get us to the playoffs. Our #1 D did.

Stop, the OP is not trolling. The question should have been re-phrased to "Is Dak the best value draft pick in the last 20 years?". I think this is the question the OP really wanted to ask and if that is the case, I hands down agree since Dak was selected with a 4th round compensatory pick. I forget who we traded and got that pick from.

ROMO he was undrafted, Witten/Ware HOF , maybe Dez he owns some records already but others are close but not Dak im sorry he was solid pickup in the 4th but i cant add him just yet and Zeke at 4 overall how can that be a great pickup , he was nearly acant miss player..

Maybe word it differently but IMO great picks are the surprises in later rounds or ones that were undrafted or now locks for the HOF..
