I dont believe it proves anything when all you have to boast about is a guy that wouldnt start on any other team in the league including the bottom five bottom feeders.


Pure speculation without ANY sense of reality. In your HEAD.../but let;s all get on board with your fantasy, right?

1 - how do you know Heath wouldn't start? That's just internet venting.

2 - Darian Thompson started 16 games for the Giants in 2017. How did he look today?

In other words, you have no answer. HEATH MAN BAD isn't an argument.

Lol, smh.

“Heeeeehaw, heeeeehaw, Thompson looked bad means Heath plays good.”

Please tell me you haven’t spawned and furthered your lineage.

And like Hayden, Heath cost us nothing. I'd rather use 2nd and 3rd round picks on Jaylon Smith and Michael Gallup with Heath as a below average starter at a non-premium position.

Heath + Gallup >>>>> a small upgrade from Heath

Good points.

Many ignore the cost in draft picks and salary when evaluating players. Cheap vets save you on both.

You're also right that the way to evaluate the marginal cost of an upgrade on Heath is versus the marginal improvement delivered,

The low hanging fruit was to replace Heath's snaps as *in the box* SS. Heath is best when he keeps the play in front of him, worst when he has to flip his hips and turn back upfield. In the box SSs are pretty cheap. I was surprised we didn't work harder to bring in an upgrade there. It shouldn't have been that difficult or that expensive.

Heath adds a toughness to our secondary and defense overall. He doesn't make all of the tackles, nobody does, but he does make some big plays and the dude can blitz. He's very serviceable...

You went back to 2017 to make an argument.

You said Heath can't start for any other team in the NFL and I asked for some type of backing for that statement. I'm still waiting.

In talking about Heath compared to starters, Thompson was a starter until he got hurt back in the pre-TV, leather helmet days of..... two years ago. And in Dallas Thompson isn't starting, with today's game a pretty dramatic example of the reason why.

So I'll ask again, what backs up the statement Heath wouldn't start for any other team except Muh Bad Feelz?

I’ve been asking for the front office to draft a safety with a premium pick (1-3 round) for years now.

they put nothing but 6th round picks, undrafted Free agents and scrubs back there and it shows.

As a organization they clearly don’t value the position and the results show.

Along with DT and it showed today.

How about the fact that you root for one of the top generous teams in the NFL. If you dont know the track record then you are a lost cause.

How will you understand facts when you fail to see them!

I'll understand facts if you post them. But "Jeff Heath wouldn't start for any other team" is opinion, not fact.

And I think autocorrect got you on the first sentence, I really don't know what you mean by top generous team.

What do you think of Donovan Wilson? Id like to see him more.

He was great in the preseason but he played FS.

It was SS (Thompson) that was a big problem today.

I would like to see either Wilson or Josh Jones at SS next week.

Should have given the Jets two Firsts for Adams.
Hes worth it in my opinion. Especially since those two Firsts are likely going to be in the 20-25 range.

Thompson looked like a Div III College Freshman who Plays Safety first time.

Never seen someone this bad this Season on any Games i watched .

The Cowboys Need to splash in on Safety this Offseason no matter what. Its by far the weakest link on the D.
