I can see us going 10-6 this year. In your mind, what could give us 3 more wins next season? 3 more wins would probably give us the NFC, and home field advantage through-out - If you could only fix 3 positions, what would they be, and would it be enough to give us 3 more wins next year?

For me -

1. Kicker
2. Right Tackle
3. OLB

Kicker alone would have given us 3 more wins this year, so I don't think we're that far off. Right tackle would allow Drew to sling the ball more. And another great outside linebacker would allow us to shut down passing games (sacking the QB, causing more fumbles, causing more int's.

Your 3?

It's going to be super tough next year, unless we really get a super draft, some good at least 3 players from round 1 to round 3, and at least 4 good free agents,
First, because, even Parcells said in one of his reports, he sees 10 to 14 guys gone from the cowboys next year, then u add in that we have Commanders, giants, eagles twice, then we play New Orleans, Tampa Bay, Houston and Indianapolis, while traveling to play Atlanta, Carolina, Jacksonville and Tennessee, plus either rams or cardianls, hard to beat a team twice in 2 years in row, then we will either play minnesotta, or 2nd seed team, out of those, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, Atlanta, Carolina, Jacksonville are going to be tough, then out of our division, maybe 2-3 losses, so super tough, im not saying it cant be done, but super tough.

For me, I say, a kicker too, maybe have the kicker now Sauchaum, or however u spell him name, I think a good offensive tackle either left or right for backup, to learn system for a year, or good super good offensive guard, we have 2 33 years old guards in larry allen and riveria. I do think that Tucker would be more valuable at guard.
So, I say a kicker, maybe
but a FS more important for defense, either free agent or draft
another DT-NT or DE-LB, (if we lose Glover or Ellis next year, need another Dlineman)
speedy WR (Glenn and Keyshawn are getting old)
then a OT, there are going to be at least 6-8 dominant offensive tackles in the draft
next year, so, the cowboys should be able to draft one in 1st to 2nd round or 3rd round, remember they got Erik Williams in 3rd round.
For me -

1. Kicker
2. Right Tackle
3. OLB

I think with a year under his belt,Pettiti will become
the right tackle the Boys need.I think all in all, he did ok.

If we have 3 more kickers on this team I will be kicking the bucket.
Just going on the theory that at least one in 3 has to be decent.

This year we had Suisham, Cundiff, and Cortez. Which one was the decent one?

We need at least two lineman, probably three.
Allen is a year older.
Marco and Johnson have performed poorly.
Pettiti may not be aby better.
Don't kid yourself that we are 1 olineman away from the SuperBowl.

We must fix the oline-I say sign 1-2 FAs and draft 1-2 in the 1st four rounds. We need to add three new lineman to the team that can start next year.

1. kicker
2. FS (proved we vulnerable to passing game in second game and that hasn't changed. we gotta get a FS who has excellent coverage skills so RW always plays near the LOS.
3. LB (don't think Dat coming back & signing/drafting vet OLB eliminates need for Singleton)
4. OT (even if Flozel comes back & Pettiti improves RT play, we still need good OT to replace either starter & Tucker is not the guy; for 1/2 games okay, but no longer then that.
5. WR (in games we lost opponents able to take Glenn out of it & we had no other WR to stretch the field). Unless we sign a vet which costs money, we should draft a young WR.
6. OG (Allen turns 35 in 06 & Riveria 34 in 06). We must have top OG on hand if either one gets injuries & or playing poorly.

If we can sign/draft these players, sure would like a new center, we are on our way to SB.

Let's see, we (barring a total collapse tomorrow night) are going to be 10-6.
We could've easily been 13-3 had we made some kicks.

We could possibly be 3 players away from being 13-3 next season. Maybe all we need is a kicker, a tackle and a Center.
