Exactly and he's on his 14th it's not like Kansas City thought highly of him or they would have paid him a Super Bowl team moved on from him and in San Francisco had a losing season and I moved on from him I'm not saying this guy ain't good but he's got an awful big ego for someone who I couldn't tell you what his stats are how his career is going he's not deon Sanders he's not Darrell green he's not rivas island but this dude was undrafted he should not have an ego talking crap about a team that traded him before he showed anything really...

Does he realize that 32 teams went through 7 rounds of the draft and decided he wasn't worth picking that's what I see and then I see the rejections by Kansas City and San Francisco after being traded from Dallas he's on his fourth team I'm sure he's a really solid corner we wish we still had him here but the nonsense that they make bad decisions no this was just something they couldn't see the future I mean if we went by what we saw in preseason there be a lot of hall of farmers that we released because they were really good in preseason hell Carson looked good in preseason last year and he turned out not to play well at all in the regular season...

This is not constructive criticism that is gonna affect anyone including me. The dude's got a big mouth.

Kansas City. You act like they won the lottery with the guy they chose not to resign him. They didn't wanna give him a big deal so they traded him to San Francisco. And now where is he at?

I can't even tell you because the guy's acting like he's Darryl green or Deion Sanders. He's not even the best corner in his era. I don't even put him top five.

Demands on his four teams that he got in the league. And he acts like he needs to run his mouth. And his ego is just running him up.

And this was just a misstep by the Cowboys because they didn't realize he was gonna turn out this way. Teams do this all the time.

It sure is better than trading, say, saquon Barkley within your division and allowing the eagles to win a Super Bowl because of it. That's what a dumb move looks like. That's what a bad decision looks like.

Letting an undrafted free agent go just because he had a few good moments in preseason games. That's not a bad decision. That's just bad luck. A sheer coincidence...

 

[jazzcat22]

No!
Dallas tried to trade Olimba because Ward was the favorite to make the team. KC insisted on Ward.
There was a Q&A answer on the main page complaining about why they traded Ward!

Not the way it was reported to what I read back when it happened.

 

[blueblood70]

?That's easy,?????????

didn't listen to the video and have no idea what team he plays for now, and I don't care.

simple as that, the guy ran his mouth he's wrong wasn't a bad decision it was a misstep, they didn't know what the guy was going to turn into, but that's kind of odd that 32 teams let 7 rounds go in the draft and didn't even notice this guy... But the Cowboys should be given credit for even bringing the guy on board so they let the guy go who cares how well he may or may not have looked in preseason we seen Carson do that last year and completely not look the same in the regular season against real competition it happens teams move on from a player they have no idea what is future is going to be when he's undrafted...

then he's on his fourth team at least that I remember offhand just from general tidbits of information from apps that send reports on player movement...

but again, don't care I don't know where he's at he's not that relative to the NFL in my opinion he's not one of the big name corners, I know he's good, I know he's solid.. I know he's had a good career but he's not one of those guys I mentioned he is not even in Deion Sanders or Darryl green or players like them IE lock HOFers..

 

[CCBoy]

Tell him to save up and buy his own team.

Dallas was keeping Ward, but they had a ton of offensive line injuries and panicked. Then the guy they got for Ward got hurt too and never played a down for the Cowboys.

Ward is right about the Cowboys' bad decisions, but when it comes to them trading him, hindsight is 20/20. He was a UDFA. If the rest of the NFL was right about Ward and the Cowboys were the dumb ones....than why wasn't Ward drafted?

[CowboyFrog]

I can see that side of it. I really did not have an opinion one way or the other at that time. As there was still a lot of TC left. If they waited a week, then they may have kept him.

Hindsight is 20/20. But of course many will use this against the FO.
It is like saying the captain of the titanic should have know the iceberg was there.

i get what your saying Jazz but there is PLENTY of ammo to use against this FO if this CB never even stopped in Dallas.

What gets me about this comment is how things are changing in the way active players talk about the Cowboys. Seems like every few days, we're getting tweets and posts where some player still in the league and even potentially a FA at the time is out-right mocking the way the Cowboys do business. Basically burning their bridges with them. I'm not even against it since I really can't disagree much, just that we are hearing it so much more often.

I think we all know that Jerry is delusional enough that this doesn't affect what he does, but I have to wonder if this increased criticism is starting to get to him.

The Cowboys tried to get LB Dre Greenlaw in free agency this year. He was a guy they had interest in the draft but 49ers took him before their pick in the 5th round. The guy grew up in Fayetteville Arkansas and went to the University of Arkansas (in Fayetteville). Jerry and Stephen couldn't even get a guy from their neck of the woods. He chose the Broncos over the Cowboys.

That OL they got was garbage and never did a thing in the league.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Correct, but not a single person in the league at the time thought Ward would do anything either. It's like Tom Brady getting drafted at 199 overall. Who knew? Even the Patriots passed him over five times.

 

[acr731]

He was strappin those boys.....

Please don't provide any visuals, ok?

 

[shabazz]

Please don't provide any visuals, ok?

Its an expression I hadn't heard players use before. " Owning" would have worked too

"Dallas don't make a lot of good decisions."
--He should probably go back to school and learn English since football isn't working out.

 

[phillycard]

You mean this guy?

This is the funniest thing I have seen in a minute! LMAO!!!

That dude is making $22M this year....That football thing might be working out for him better than people realize.

Didn't listen to the video but you're sure the guy is wrong? Ok....

Also what's the difference in a mistake and a misstep? This is some Stephen Jones level word play

 

[blueblood70]

I realize people saw some promise in the preseason but we've seen that before you know how many preseason heroes never even made the roster with the Cowboys and never did anything in the league but they look great in preseason too many to list but let's just go back to last year it was Carson... Another corner how fitting if we just went by preseason this dude looked like he was going to be the next Trayvon diggs and I know people are down on that right now I just wanna stay current...

Carson may turn out to be a very good prospect we don't know but just because people look good in camp or preseason means nothing because there's no structure no game plans there's no real full speed like top talent level against top talent level to see what a person can do.

I mean that has happened here recently with a couple receivers everyone keeps thinking they're going to come along like what is it brooks and cropper look really good all preseason and in camp but when they get the opportunity even how little they are they don't seize them a guy like miles Austin came from nowhere and sees his opportunities when the lights came on and he was healthy that's how you get on the field.

. I still don't understand how people don't get it but 7 rounds and 32 teams passed on this guy and not only that he's on his fourth team now and I get he's good solid maybe better than I'm giving him credit for but if Kansas City chose not to keep him and San Francisco chose not to keep him how is it the Cowboys made a bad decision?

I realize players migrate from team to team occasionally but not when they're that young and that good you'd have thought he'd have stuck in Kansas City I mean they make great decisions right one of the best coaching Staffs in front offices in football and they let him walk before his first big contract I get why they allowed hill to walk he was going for his second big contract and they just didn't see it necessary to pay him...

But that only applies at time of draft. In Ward's case, they had him in the program til right before the season began. They had seen him against NFL talent. As another poster said, Dallas did what Dallas does. Panicked. Gave away a promising young player because they had whiffed at another position. I think that's a simple but accurate summation.
