The worldwide leader evaluated each team based on a few categories: each team’s roster (non-QB), quarterback, draft, front office and coaching. When you look at the Cowboys they have a superb non-quarterback roster, and their front office continues to replenish it. Those are hallmark traits of this organization and have been for almost a decade now.

Where the Cowboys appear to be the most vulnerable (potentially) is at the game’s most important position - quarterback. If Dak Prescott is the player that doubters believe he is, well, welcome to purgatory; however, if Dak is the ascending talent that those optimists know him as, you can make the argument that this is one of the best and most stable rosters of the next three years.

Granted dallas hasnt had a good season 19 out of the last 24 years I dont buy it. I'd be suprised if Dallas was 8-8 or worse the next 3 years.

well my self I am, ready to move on from Dak draft Fromm or Eason

Jake Fromm, QB, Georgia
Height: 6-2. Weight: 220.
Projected 40 Time: 4.79.
Projected Round (2020): 1-2.
6/6/19: Fromm completed 67 percent of his passes in 2018 for 2,749 yards with 30 touchdowns and six interceptions. Because of an injury, Fromm was pressed into the starting lineup as a freshman in 2017, but he led Georgia all the way to the National Championship that season. Fromm was an excellent game-manager, making some clutch throws while protecting the football to allow his potent rushing attack and superb defense to control games. On the year, Fromm completed 62.2 percent of his passes for 2,615 yards with 24 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He could be even better now that he has more experience.

Jacob Eason*, QB, Washington
Height: 6-5. Weight: 235.
Projected 40 Time: 4.80.
Projected Round (2020): 1-3.
6/6/19: Eason sat out the 2018 season after transferring out of Georgia. He was injured in the 2017 season opener for Georgia, and Jake Fromm remained the starter for the rest of the season. The Bulldogs didn't want to change their winning formula once Eason was healthy, keeping Eason as the backup. After the 2017 season, Eason transferred to Washington.

I know some scouts who are high on Eason, so he definitely would have received serious consideration if he had entered the 2019 NFL Draft, for which he was eligible. Eason has excellent size and a quality arm with pocket-passing potential. At Georgia, he got good experience working in an offense under a respected coordinator with Jim Chaney that correlates more to the NFL than the vast majority of college offenses being used. Kirby Smart said one of the sad parts about Eason leaving Georgia was that his growth under Chaney wasn't seen nationally. Eason completed 55 percent of his passes in 2016 for 2,430 yards with 16 touchdowns and eight interceptions.

According to their rankings, it's not the QB that's the biggest issue. It's the coaching position over the next three years. Does that ranking reflect the uncertainty that Garrett may not even be here beyond a year?

ESPN is just trying to keep the lights on these days.

They'll be down to 10 people at this rate within a couple of years.

I love hearing criticism of the best and multi billion dollar sports network in the world from CZ members who have a tough time getting off their couch

They must be doing something right

They just went through their fourth round of layoffs, and their ratings continue to spiral sharply downward. SportsCenter ratings are down over 70% from 20 years ago. Subscribers to cable are plummeting.

Do you really think ANY multi billion dollar company does not go through reorganization and layoffs?

Do you? Really?

I’m hoping I don’t have to go into the whole ‘why TV ratings are down’ thing with you . ESPN is adapting by going to online content . 20 years ago sports center was the only way to get highlights and catch up on your sports , now not so much so it should not come as a surprise to anyone with half a brain that SC ratings are lower. Well, DUH

These are just comments by message board posters who are ignorant or butt hurt that ESPN is “against” their favorite team

They are a multi billion dollar franchise and by far the most dominant sports network in the world but you know better?

LOL
sure
Whatever
