Cowboys continue to miss opportunities in the draft!

[Yeagermeister]

Not to mention the butterfly effect.

We draft Leftwich, we now have a huge hole at CB and more cap tied up. Our draft needs change the next year, we may not make the trade, and if we do we don't have the cap to sign the free agents that we did this year.

We trade up to get Roethlisberger, that takes care of the trade, we may not get Jones with our second, Rogers, Peterman and Ryan don't get drafted, and we don't get Spears this year.

Rodgers does not even need a break down is so silly.

Stop using logic BZ

And we'd need a CB...to replace Newman by drafting Leftwich, a RB, DE, OG and TE...to replace Jones, Spears, Peterman, and Ryan which is what we'd have lost to get Roethlisberger, and Spears again to get a completely unproven Rodgers.

Hind sight is great, and this get my nod for silliest post of the month.

Did we pick up Jones with Buff 2nd round pick?

Did we pick up Jones with Buff 2nd round pick?

Yes, we took Rogers with ours.

 

[Little Jr]

Yes, we took Rogers with ours.

Cool. Thanks. Im having a debate on another board right now. Needed that info.

 

[Little Jr]

Yes, we took Rogers with ours.

How would we give up Jones to get Ben.



Never mind!! I got it. :bang2:

Great Movie !

BTW: They shot that film down the road from where I work. The fax machine that they hammered in that one scene was actually given to them by my current employer

What they said.

We arent just signing run of the mill qb's like u make it seem.

Q.Carter was a 2nd rounder.
Hensen a 3rd
Vinny and Drew both 1st rounders.

You make it seem as though we sign everyone else worst qb's

But Carter should not have been a 2nd rounder. And Henson COST us a 3rd, but he was drafted in the 6th.

Anything can happen from the draft to Sept... Henson was scouted by several teams as a top 5 pick (had he stayed in college and not gone the baseball route) Who knows what we have until he actually plays a couple of games and finishes them... I just dunno.

 

[Teague31]

I still think our best bet was 3 years ago... all we had to do was move up 4 picks and we could have Carson Palmer... not sure what it would have cost but it would have been worth it.

 

[Sarge]

This past draft was one of the weakest QB drafts in years.

Bingo.

I have no problem with us going with a QB in the first round, sure beats the cute way we've gotten the last three QBs of the future. For our sake I hope Henson proves guys like me wrong and has a solid career for us. Otherwise I hope Jerry follows a simple rule "No more failed baseball players!"

But speaking of Rogers, would you prefer we take him over Ware/Spears? I like Rogers but not sure if I would have taken him over the two.

We had to have WARE, but I'd take a QB over Spears any day. If we were still playing the 4-3, we'd have never drafted him...no 4-3 team was interested by all accounts because he's mainly a run stuffer without much pass rush.

However, my guess is the Cowboys didn't rate the QB that highly...I think if they'd had Rogers rated higher than Spears on their board, they'd have taken him, or at least I hope they would have.

It's nice to have all these D-linemen, and it's nice to have a great CB like Newman, but right now I'd settle for FA Corners like Shaun Springs and Anthony Henry and sticking with the 4-3 with Ware as our right DE in training if we simply had a QB we were really confident in.

It's not over yet though....in the next 2 years we'll address the WR's and the QB position unless Henson steps it up. You can't do everything in one or two years.

The good news is that in a couple of more years there won't be anymore QB's in the league that used to play under Parcells..

Unless he decides to take another stab at Q
