Look it up it is true he recorded no tackles his rookie season

He still had sacks unlike Micah Parsons in the playoffs who recorded zero & as a LB allowed around 200 yards of rushing.

Look up the record it’s all true.

All they had to do was not whiff on the 2nd rounder and it would’ve been so much better. Need over talent, burns you just about every time.

Ojulari
JOK
Bolton
Samuel

All still in the board and consensus better players by just about every draft analyst out there.
Joseph was the most talented CB in the draft. He was clearly talent over need.

Micah is a stud. He wasn't drafted to improve the run defense. He was drafted to pressure the QB. Quinn saw that potential in him. The fact is that he is the best player from the 2021 draft and would easily go #1 or #2 overall in a redraft.

After that, our draft is total garbage. We basically didn't draft a single NFL average player after Micah and it shows up when you have rely on kelvin joseph and Osa for production.

I like Osa, but he has tweener/backup written all over him, just as the scouts thought.

Overall the draft is bust with Micah as the only upside whose shine is going down as well.
All this talk about building through the draft and valuing picks over FA has amounted to pile of trash and tons of dead money due to Jones’s egos. I don’t want to hear brain washed Cowboys fan claiming picks are more valuable than FAs.


1st round: Micah is good but still hasn’t improved run defense the biggest weakness in the defender

2nd round: So far a bust getting burnt with minimum contribution on defense

3rd round: Osa Odighizuwa can’t stop the run and isn’t getting sacks or pressure

3rd round: Chauncey Golston too slow to play DE and too small to play DT has helped given up over 4.0 yards a carry in run defense

3rd round: Nashon Wright another burnt toast that can’t cover

4th round: Jabril Cox besides a dirty hit on Jones hasn’t produced squat on defense and can’t even play special teams.

4th round: Josh Ball aka another Chaez Green turnstile.

5th round: Simi Fehoko special teams player

6th round: Quinton Bohanna often injured and run defense is still trash

6th round: Israel Mukuamu special teams player at best.

7th round: Matt Farniok always injured but decent depth on OL



will McClay is a clown

I made this post last week and people melted down

He isn’t a generational talent, he always disappears against top tier competition. I know LT wouldn’t have zero sacks in a playoff game.

Unless I'm reading profootballreference wrong(which is possible).... LT between 86-93 had 9 playoff games and recorded 2.5 sacks total. 8 of his 15 playoff games ended without a sack and didn't have a sack in either super bowl.

It hasn’t even taken a contract negotiation to get this place to turn on Micah.

I said earlier in the year this would happen - posters saying he was already better than Demarcus Ware (Future HOF). Just unbelievable expectations for any player this early into their career that will lead to disappointment when he's not playing other worldly.

Don't think people really understand how tough it is to sustain the level of play Ware played at for most of his career.
