Another year not addressing QB1 deficiency

[The Fonz]

How though? We literally drafted Mike White and Dinucci?

you can say that about any position too ( we like our guys)
You have to have options just in case

Yep,
If 4 years of 2-15 netted the TEAM a Mahomes or Burrow prospect at QB instead of sticking with SleepNumber's proven ceiling.
Yep, waiting those 4 years for the ultimate improvement of the team far outweighs waiting on a ceiling thats already been reached by the incumbent and continuing to overpay.

Yep,
Team over Dak.
A risk and/or sacrifice needs to be made at Daks expense for the current and future improvement of this team.
Simple as that.

Silly Boy 4 years of 2-15 LMAO

Dak just keeps holding the team back.

Carson Wentz was the Eagles' previous franchise quarterback. Philadelphia drafted Clayton Thorson with a fifth round pick in 2019. Thorson was the only quarterback drafted during Wentz's five seasons.

Since 2010, the Eagles have invested fewer backup quarterback draft picks during the Howie Roseman's general manager/vice-president of football operations era, with a franchise quarterback on their roster, than Jones has with Dallas on average during his tenure under the same circumstance.

For Philadelphia's sake, Tanner McKee must prove to be a more capable acquisition than Thorson. He has barely worked out as practice squad material. Heck. The Commanders are the only NFC East team that has not waived Thorson off their practice squad during the past four years, lol.

There may be another team with a young (or even older) franchise quarterback, who drafted a quality backup. Philadelphia cannot be counted as one of those teams in my opinion, at least not until McKee shakes out as a viable backup to Jalen Hurts.

Valid points but why not try to address the QB position every year ?what if Dak injured and out of the season?
As for Tanner he might end up as the real deal if they are lucky or a total bust but at least they try

Silly Boy 4 years of 2-15 LMAO

Yep,
I'd take 0-17 if it netted the Cowboys a Mahomes or Burrow.

But lots of people like Jerry would rather stick with his current success plan at the QB position.

Its all just a matter of what you're willing to give up for an elite QB that can win playoff games.

You said the Eagles were proactive because they took a 6th round QB. Cowboys take Mike White and Dinucci and they aren’t?

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

We have never been stronger at QB. Now that Dak has a new OC, we will see much better decision making. Dak is the franchise QB for years to come

We have never been stronger at QB.? I need to have what you're drinking.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Levis was there at 1, Hooker at 2.

Shortsighted and stupid. The Cowboys believe Dak is their solution. It is not. Never will be.

I think you are underestimating Tanner he is way better than both

I am a proponent of investing a draft pick, mid-to-late rounder, either every draft or at the very least every other draft. My answers are always based on what I think is bouncing around inside Jones' skull. I do not prefer dealing with what ifs when an individual as inflexible as Jones has dictated player acquisitions for going on four straight decades.

Why has Jones not addressed the quarterback position every season or every other season, etc.? My answer: Because he believes he is a qualified judge of quarterbacks capable of helping lead a team to a championship. Thus investing in a highly regarded quarterback prospect who will challenge his recognized best player at the position is redundant and inefficient use of draft capital.

What does Jones think of losing Prescott for a significant number of games or the entire season? My answer: He believes he has done the hard part in okaying the best quarterback to do the job. The responsibility is left to those telling him how his team can win games without his starting quarterback and they are the ones at fault if the contingency plan does not succeed. Plus, Jones has an old NCAA/NFL mindset that the best players can perform well through injury. His expectation may be unrealistic but it is what he believes. You know. The same guy who approves all player acquisition and retention decisions in the end.

It’s not about who’s better. We don’t know who’s better. They invested higher draft capital in the qb position. It is what it is I know you won’t admit this take is a bit much.

That's why we will be at best a decent team but not good enough to advance

I got you. I just wouldn't . but that's cool, difference of opinion. No guarantee that that's going to net you a Mahomes or a Burrow. Even if it gets you someone as skilled

You still need Oline , RB WR Such as Chase

IMHO Tanking is for losers, you admit that the only way to get better is to lose.

I don't get down like that.

Example I have a Good House, not an elite house but top 10 ish , Burn it down with the hopes of the insurance money. Then I get the money rebuild and it's a Drafty home, Cost Goo Gobs of money to heat

And the foundation is screwed. No thanks I'll ride with what I got.

You'll sell your soul for a QB, I don't think its all that important. Team game and all

 

[sbark]

No hidden S2 test diamonds in the rough I guess

Maybe they could give Dak that S2 test.....and then coach him up on areas he was weak on....

Doesn’t just have to be on college rookies

But make it a surprise pop quiz

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

need proof Daks the highest tenured starting qb left in the league LOL let that sink in hes still on his same team the longest..

a lot of people feel our FO is dysfunctional . That good decisions are hard to come by.

So juts because Dak is still here...is proof of...what? A contract we can't get out of? A pet project? Playoff success?

 

[Calvin2Tony2Emmitt2Julius]

Dak just keeps holding the team back

Mike's first year 6-10 second year 12-5 one and done, third year 12-5 won an away playoff game.

Thanks for holding us back Dak!!! Hold us back some more, we'll make the Championship Game !!!!!!! LOL

 

[NumOneQB]

How come the Eagles drafted in the 6th round a good QB ( Tanner Mckee) while they have new young QB for years to come?
They are proactive and we are reactive

The Eagles are a more complete team. Dallas has too many areas of need.

 

[Cowboys5217]

I'm not a Dak fan but you have to be somewhat realistic. We are stuck with Dak and he's not going anywhere anytime soon. Drafting a replacement was never a consideration this year.

Thus, 27 years and counting...

 

[Hadenough]

Face it! Until Dallas drafts a top talent at QB they will always be 1 and done. People think the NFC is wide open now that Rodgers is gone but look out for Seattle and Detroit.
