We have been clamouring for months for Dallas to get a dependable swing tackle. Back then there were several that we could have had that could have stepped in if needed.

Now that there are hardly any good swing tackles available we are in a quagmire going in starting the season.

It's beyond me why the FO didn't get a swing tackle when they had the chance. Goes to show how their lack of football IQ and their drive to win. That's a shame to us fans.

Bingo. This was entirely predictable. Tyron hasn't played a full season since Zeke and Dak were in college. Yet, our front office once again spent the offseason with their collective heads in the sand. The entirety of their swing tackle plan was spending a 5th round pick on some guy named Walesko. Thats it. That was the plan. Good luck Dak!

Yup. Shoulda traded him a couple years ago when Seattle and houston were desperate and throwing first round picks around for LTs. I was told I was crazy for wanting to unload a guy like him with such a team friendly contract. Jerry never learned one thing over the last 30 years about being proactive In building a franchise.

Three years back I suggested the Cowboys trade Tyron while they could get something for him. I got lambasted, chastised, castigated and rebuked like I was out of my mind. Don't get me wrong, Tyron is great when healthy, but it was becoming obvious he would miss more and more games. If he makes it back from the hamstring, it will only be a week or two before the back or neck start acting up again.
It's a shame.

Oh well, Woulda, shoulda, coulda is way past now.

Tyron signed probably the fairest contract in the history of football. When he was at his best he was underpaid now he is overpaid. Love him but his body won’t let him play anymore. He will always get a hamstring, calf strain or Achilles from now on.

we needed 21 million to give to Diggs

who needs a LT when you can overpay a CB

Stephen doesn't listen to comment board clowns. He could care less what anyone here or anyone in the media has to say. They are Pros and we are Joes.

Most of the vets who were out there early, still are
Atleast those who would be a swing tackle and not a starter

Well I won't come here to say I told ya so or anything....it's too bad nobody but the fans of this team for the last 3 decades didn't see this coming. It's great that Dak, Zeke and others on the O are in the best shape of their lives as well. Good times.

Pros at what? Making money? Certainly not building winning football teams.

Meh, they have had a heads up for a while. I love Tyron and appreciate his work as a Cowboy. :thumbup: No excuse for this one no matter "How" much we love our guys.
