Lol. Yeah okay, I can agree to that.
The Cowboys need an addition to the middle of their team; OG, DT, ILB, Safety.
What concerns me about the FO is they apparently do not see the value of having a good 1 tech. That bothers me to no end. I understand their thinking. They don't want to spend high for what would be essentially a 2 down player. I understand that. But with the way the Cowboys play offense (ball control), to do that consistently and successfully, you have to be able to shut down the oppositions run game. And without a true 1-tech, I don't see them consistently doing that.
They could solve OG with a bandaid by simply resigning Cooper. Serviceable 1-tech's could potentially be had as late as the third round. Anything later would likely be a project and not an immediate help. That leaves linebacker and Safety. It's hard to say which is more important, but a good addition to either (if not both) would go a long way in helping this defense. My guess is the first three rounds of this years draft will address both positions.
But if they could some how some way address all of those deficiencies, I'd say they are Super Bowl Capable. For me to say "Ready," I'm going to need to see how the coaching staff addresses their schematic issues from a year ago.
Their leaked draft board from 2 or 3 years ago had some 1-tech types rated fairly high.
