If you think not having Dak was the reason for the terrible record than you are delusional. Dak was 2-3 not 1-3 but if you want to go with that Dak started the 18 season 3-5 and ended the season 10-6...... that's 7-1 the 2nd half of the season.Would you prefer I use the 6-10 record? The point is that we had Amari and Gallup coming off a 1k season. Adding a 3rd stud WR does not improve the team. If you want to parse out last season and claim the team was 6-10 b/c Dak was out........ we were 1-3 with a healthy Dak. The goal here is to win not load up at WR.
Since you asked, I would have traded back and taken a safety like Antoine Winfield jr.
As a cowboy fan, I know we aren't building teams better than anyone else. All you have to do is look at the track record.
Also you want to trade down from 17 to pick up a safety that went in the 2nd round....... it's easy to say who to draft after they complete their rookie season and you see how they play.
You always draft the best player available in the first round. Taking Lamb was absolutely the right decision as it's about the present but also the future.
