We can't be that dumb?


Can we?

Never mind.
 
everyone seems to be all over peter king's blurb...yet to date we have yet to meet with a player we're supposed to be in love with.
and until king's blurb...no one had Ruiz in the 1st Rd...let alone a top 15-17 pick.
i think this is just noise...and media folks trying to connect dots.
im not aware of any Cowboys writers talking about Ruiz....its been Chaisson,Murray and Diggs.
 
I will be so mad if we pick Ruiz at 17,you cant have a all 1st rd oline.this defense needs more talent infusion badly.

There have long been allegations that agents have used media members to push their guys in order to generate more interest.

I agree. But McCarthy and Nolan have a better idea of what’s going on with Gregory, Smith, Vander Esch.

It’s going to be interesting to see.
 
I'd hate it, but I can totally see them panicking at 17 and drafting Ruiz. Ideal world we trade back 5 to 10 spots and pick up and extra top 100 pick.

I just don't see who we could get to dance with us, and want to move up. I think it would take a team wanting a QB, if Herbert slides or they really covet Jordan Love. It would be nice to fleece a team with multiple 2nd or 3rd round picks. But who?

Colts- They have 34 and 44. Would you be willing to drop all the way to 34 for pick 44? You probably wouldn't get Ruiz but you would get two starters at those picks.

Jaguars- They have 20, 42,73, and 116. No way you're getting 42 or 73 for dropping 3 spots? Would you consider 116 to drop 3 spots? I would.

Patriots- They have 23,87,98,100, and 125. We might could pry 98 or 100 out of them to drop 6 spots. More likely you're lookin at 125. 23 would almost be an ideal spot to grab Ruiz if you really like him. If not there would still be solid DB's to choose from.

Vikings- They have 22,25,58,89, and 105. Not sure what they'd want to come up to 17 for? Maybe if a WR falls to 17 like Lamb, Ruggs, or Jeudy. Would they give us 22 and 89? Or maybe 25,89, and 132?
 
Ruiz is a mean kid with an inside punch that rivals Zack Martin and Quincy Nelson.

Really dig that kid.

But you just can't keep ignoring the defense and expect to contend for championships.

The D line will possibly get by, especially if Aldon Smith and Randy Gregory are cleared to play.

The LB will be solid, hopefully because of a healthy LVE, but we can get by with Jaylon, Lee, and Joe Thomas.

This Secondary is going to get us beat.... often.

Who says they expect to contend for a championship? Decisions made for a quarter century say otherwise.

Haven't you been paying attention?

If the ball would have just bounced our way, a different call had been made, we would have won. We just haven't been that lucky. So says the brilliant football mind of Jerry Jones.

And now? Now, they are letting more teams into the playoffs. We have the NFL right where we want them!
 
I like the player, and I like him more than some of our other options. But surely, there will be a higher rated player available than Ruiz
