cooks is more help

gallop healthy and back to normal is more help

TE in the 2nd round is more help

New OC and getting rid of Moore is going to make a huge difference also



i do not think your statement is accurate nor fair....and who is to say they are done yet especially with the line?
Some real homering.


We’ve seen Dak with much much better supporting casts and he want good enough then..

Sometimes Kellen Moore call Pass and pass no work . That should’ve been a run times.

Added Cooks who is still considered a legitimate #2.

Gallup is healthy and should be more of a legitimate #2 which would possibly send Cooks to the slot.

Tolbert is in his second season. Unless he's a bust which who knows he may be, I would expect to come in and give us maybe a Cedrick Wilson type display.

Added TE in the second round.

Added a guard in the draft as well who projects as a potential future starter (and his biggest strength is not letting his QB get hit.)

Is it ENOUGH help? I'm not sure. I worry about the offense not being physical enough. But if we really focus on making the run game work (not forcing it, but implementing it successfully) I think we can make it happen. As far as Kellen Moore goes, I have no idea how that is going to affect the offense. I think some days he had the offense rolling on all fours and then every time we play San Fran it's an issue. I think the offense really needs to focus on consistency. Right now the defense looks like it has powerhouse potential. Could a few positions use a little more depth? Maybe so, but I still think that defense will be very good.

We really failed at what should have been the #1 priority. Which was to help the QB.
So, after the first round, you were very pleased and very complementary of the pick.

We got one of the only two decent tight ends available to us in the 2nd round.

Would a WR in the 3rd have done it for you?

We did add Cooks in a trade, which would have been our 5th round pick.

Sometimes it seems like you are just stirring the pot.

I don’t get it.

I think he looks at how much we improved vs other teams. Gilmore is past his prime and Cooks isn't enough to carry the offseason.

I don't know who Chad Forbes is, and I don't really care. The Cowboys 2023 offseason is magnitudes better than the 2022 offseason so I am happy about that. Does Chad happen to explain his grade? I think there are a few Eagles homers in the sports media maybe Chad is one of them.

Don't get me wrong, I think the Eagles front office is doing a really good job but they supposedly had an all-star roster last year and didn't beat a very banged up KC Chiefs team.

The Cowboys stopped making flashy moves with McClay on board. But what they have done, except for last year, is get better. I think they are a better team this year than last and that is what matters. I think the Eagles are not better than they were last year.
