Sometimes I think you have to take a chance , and draft QB for the future .I know that building around Prescott is a sound strategy ,build a running game and shore up the defense.But chances must be taken once in a blue moon.
Dak will always choke no matter how much talent you put around him. Has anyone payed attention to the last 9 years. I’ve ask this many times and no one can answer. How many games has Dak come back to win when being down 10+ points at anytime in his career?
So under your theory, the next 4 years are going to be like the last 28?
Not if they actually build around him, no.
If they somehow someway made Dak a June 1st. Cut next year - it's a $92 million dollar cap hit. So, see what I mean they have to build around him. They have no other choice !
Yup. And the way you build around him is fielding an elite defense not shiny wr toys or running backs
If you have a Derrick Harmon, Mykel Williams or James Pearce you dont trade down. And more likely than not you will have one of them
100% agree…now if the board is wiped I’m all in on trading down and getting an extra 3rd.
One thing the annual "trade down" crew doesnt realize is that trading is very much a gamble. You are going to a lower tier group of prospects with a higher bust rate for extra lower picks. I think alot of the people that parrot trading down ignore the risks
Never saw him play but I plan on watching these players in the off season to see what they're about
But yet the question was indeed asked, right ?
They literally just got a WR with their 4th round pick. One of the positions you said you wanted.
The entire draft is nothing but a gamble. It's about trying to gather as much talent as possible. More than likely there will be a pool of 2-3 players the Cowboys like when they are on the clock. Getting players like Golston and Beebe as a bonus for trading down is a good thing.
Generally, I would agree but if Grant is there…..run to the podium!
They got a flame out WR, who has not shown any glimpse of his draft position. Now on his second team and is yet to ANYTHING here either.
He wasn't supposed to impress or come into Dallas and look like The Playmaker. He hasn't shown a glimpse because he hasn't had a chance and got thrown into a huge mess. Wonky offense with a backup QB that has to fight like heck to even score.
I'm gonna stop replying because I think we just see this very differently.
Mingo is on par with the likes of Tolbert and Brooks…it was a horrific trade and the only thing dumber than trading for him would be Jerry expecting him to plug into the rotation next year and be any different than he has been.
