Blame Wade Wilson for Dak Prescott

The problem has never been the drafting of Dak Prescott, he was an historic 4th round pick.

The real problem was his contracts, the absence of genuine competition at the position and the attempt to turn him into something he wasn't.

Dak wasn't a gunslinger, he was a very capable bus driver so long as the offense had their strong lineup. They should have continued to use him the way they did his rookie season.

They also should have made a point to acquire an alternative instead of behaving as if the QB position was set for the next 10 years. This would have also given the team leverage during contract talks.

Any negative feelings about Dak should be directed towards management.
 
Well Dak turned out to be better than most of the quarterbacks that we would have been able to get in that draft. There were 1st and 2nd round drafted quarterbacks who Dak outplayed overall and he was drafted in the 4th round.
 
This is nothing new ..........Wade stood on the table for Dak after Paxton Lynch and Connors's attempts failed. Don't understand the blame Wade tone.......imagining drafting Lynch or Connors instead on Dak.
I guess the only positive there is that we would have had to address the QB position again way before now.
 
For those who hate Dak it could have been worse. We could have ended up with Paxton Lynch or Connor Cook both of which the Cowboys tried trading up for. Lynch only lasted 2 seasons in the NFL and Cook only one season. Even the second overall pick Carson Wentz was a dud. Say what you will but Dak was an excellent 4th round pick. Romo’s body was breaking down and we could have been wasting a number of premium draft picks trying to replace him. The past 9 years could have been much worse. It’s the truth whether some want to admit it or not. We may not have achieved the ultimate with Dak and probably won’t but we got a whole lot more out of him than anyone ever thought we would when we drafted him.
 
Any negative feelings should be directed towards management.
It isn't just Dak. You can insert any name, including the coaches we've had. Garrett wasn't a great coach, but the front office also rarely put together even a decent defense while he was here to support the offense. Because Garrett didn't have the offensive acumen to make a very good offense into a stellar one, we needed the defense to at least carry a little weight.
 
Cowboys were lucky to find Dak. You negative Nancie’s can pretend like Connor Cook or Paxton Lynch would’ve been as good. But we know most of you guys are delusional and butt hurt over how Romo retired.
