Another year not addressing QB1 deficiency

[zrinkill]

What a silly biased thread.

 

[DallasEast]

Jimmy Johnson/Jerry Jones Era

Troy Aikman/Drafted 1989 first round as rookie franchise quarterback (Johnson influence)
Steve Walsh/Added in supplemental draft 1989 as QB1 insurance (Johnson influence)
Bill Musgrave/Drafted 1991 fourth round as quarterback depth (Johnson influence)

~Aikman retires/team lacks franchise quarterback~

Jerry Jones Era

Quincy Carter/Drafted 2001 2nd round as rookie franchise quarterback (veteran Tony Banks booted to prove the point)

~Tony Romo takes over as franchise quarterback~

Isaiah Stanback/Drafted 2007 fourth round as a wide receiver
Stephen McGee/Drafted 2009 fourth round as quarterback depth
Dak Prescott/Drafted 2016 fourth round as quarterback depth

~Romo injured/Jones & Jason Garrett do not reinstate him as starter/Prescott takes over as franchise quarterback~

Mike White/Drafted 2018 fifth round as quarterback depth
Ben DiNucci/Drafted 2020 seventh round as quarterback depth


Above is Dallas Cowboys history at the position during Jones' reign as general manager. And for some totally illogical reason, some observers believe/think/hope influences like Will McClay, Mike McCarthy, etc., will motivate Jones into investing a DAY 1 or DAY 2 draft pick at the position with an established franchise quarterback on the roster.

Forget history. Disregard history. Be purposefully befuddled.

Day 3 was always the logical beginning of expectation for the team adding a quarterback via the draft. Which player does anyone hope will get picked up later today?

We have very strong QB room. Its a strength of the team. We could use a developmental guy.

Which is where Tune or DTP probably come in.

Next years QB's are better.

Exactly, and our division is much harder now. I think there could be several changes next year, depending on how things go.

I'm feeling a quarterback today.

The same guys here saying not to take a quarterback in the first 3 rounds are EXACTLY a the same guys saying “ it’s not easy to find the next franchise quarterback” , whenever we discuss moving on from Dakota

of course it’s not easy , IF YOU DONT DRAFT ONE HIGHER THAN 4th!!!!!!!!!

 

[shabazz]

I'm feeling a quarterback today.

Yup, the next DeNucci may slide to us in the 7th

It's not even the gorilla or elephant in the room at this point, but has become the dinosaur.

But I guess the we draft well and maintain the regular season relevance crowd will continue to be pleased.

The dark Dak ages continues on.

Always room for the next Nooooch!!

This thought makes perfect sense if Howie Roseman was the Dallas Cowboys general manager. He isn't though. He's drafting out of Philadelphia.

Whatever you say Jerry.

I mean, your so off its comical. Your not even worth discussing. Enjoy your misery. LOL

Levis was there at 1, Hooker at 2.

Tell me you don’t understand football and team building without telling me you don’t understand football and team building.

 

[LACowboysFan1]

Depending on what happens this season, I could see a QB being taken next year round 1.

Depends on what Dak does. If he gets worse, no doubt next year qb is taken early. But if the team falters for reasons other than Dak's failures, I could also see Jerry thinking (still, sigh) that Dak's "good enough".

But also no doubt Dak's on thin ice, even Jerry will eventually tire of the lack of playoff success...

 

[GoldenR]

Sadly it's all window dressing as long as Dak is here to keep intercepting and sliding our way out of the playoffs.

Some of this fan base will never see the real problem as 99% of the sporting world does, so give up addressing the problem.

QB is not a need. That would've been stupid.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Embrace the failure.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

QB is not a need. That would've been stupid.

It's stupid to address the most important position in sports?

We're literally a QB away from being real contenders.

 

[75boyz]

Tell me you don’t understand football and team building without telling me you don’t understand football and team building.

Exactly. Because understanding that team building BEGINS with the QB position and this team doesn't have a CAPABLE one to win championships with.

It's printed plain as day in the NFL team building 101 handbook, lol.

Coaching OR team support changes can not fix his deficiencies.

Dak over Dallas fans know nothing about the QB position and the importance of it.

That's why you constantly try to see them downplay it.

QB is the only position that can turn your team around night to day.

Epic post.
Cheers and fantastic job man.

Exactly, and he's going to be on the last year of his deal next year (assuming he's not extended). In fact, a 1 June cut is not out of the realm of possibility. So, if it's directly his fault, I could see an immediate change happening. If the team falters in the playoffs, I could still see a QB being taken in round 1. Jerry's built a great defence. Dak just has to drive the bus, which seems to be all he's going to be asked to do this season.
