What's crazy is Sammy Watkins was never a good option in free agency.
His second year was solid...but his third and 4th year weren't good and his 5th year option was declined

Why was that going to be our splash signing in 2018? I know the WR room was bad, but he wasn't helping

The wr's coach at the time was vouching for him.

At some point the younger generation of fan has to revolt in some way right?

They've never seen success.

The older heads live off the 90s championships to this day, but the newer fans are the ones that will be buying stuff in the future.

When do these fans start to have a little pride?
Some are fans because of…

1)Proximity. Texans.
2)Generational. Dad’s team.
3)History. Glorious past.
4)Style. Cool uniforms, biggest stadium, nickname, etc.
5)Particular players, like any team.
6)12-5 last two years, taste of playoffs, lotsa coverage. JUST ENOUGH to give some hope.

We’re ALL disgusted by the lack of real contention, the failure to TRY (seemingly). I don’t know what to tell anyone, except…don’t invest too much in this whole thing. It’ll drive you crazy.

They really don't care about building a winning team.

Why then should we care about the team? They don't give a F about us. If they did, they'd actually try to get better.

Most Cowboys fans that are aware of this FO's tendencies in the last 26 years know enough to anticipate a lack of veteran FA activity. As long as the money keeps rolling in, Jerry & Son are willing to rock along, whether they're Super Bowl competitive or not. They're just not inclined to be proactive. Being truly Super Bowl competitive requires sound football knowledge and a willingness to invest boldly in that pursuit. That's just not in their nature.

so where are the morons that were bleating about how it will be different THIS TIME/

Or the losers that are content with being one step up from mediocre?
Stay here. They're well represented. You may have to turn off your Show ignored content though in order to see their insane Jerry's Way support.

That's the only way I know they're here when I turn off the ig function, lol.

Remember midseason when the Jerry homers were on here saying “you guys who doubted the front office should be apologizing!” Well, If they fail to partake in Free agency again this year, and start out 5-2, can we all agree to ban or at least publicly shame any homers who say this again? Thanks.

WR is the only position the Cowboys would likely be aggressive in. We've seen that with past trades and signings. The rest I would expect the Cowboys to sit back and see what happens.

If your an agent and see a call from the Cowboys do you send it to voice-mail the first week?

Why should they be?

It's like drafting in round 1. They don't always work out so why even do it. You can get a brady late or romo undrafted. Lets just fill the roster with 6thround, 7th round, and undrafted guys so its nothing but potential. Bland is more proof, he's way better than the 2nd rounder. A team full of day 3 picks is a team full of diamonds waiting to be discovered. /end of sarcasm for now
