Cowboys Labeled Losers!

NFL draft winners, losers: Jets grab a steal, Cowboys whiff


LOSERS

Players with character questions: The same couldn't be said for Nebraska DE Randy Gregory, LSU OL La'el Collins and Oklahoma WR Dorial Green Beckham, all players with obvious first-round ability but each saddled with red flags of the first order.

Chip Kelly: Rumors of his pursuit of Mariota hit overdrive Thursday evening with the Eagles coach offering everything he had plus the Liberty Bell and the Rocky statue. No dice.

Tight ends: The next one picked will be the first one of 2015.

Cowboys: CB Byron Jones may become a fine player. He won't sack any quarterbacks, nor will he run for 100-plus yards on a weekly basis.

WINNERS

Dallas Cowboys and their restraint

Last year the flashy first-round pick for the Cowboys would have been Johnny Manziel. They took guard Zack Martin. That boring pick became an All-Pro as a rookie.

The headline-grabbing pick this year would have been a running back. Any running back. Someone to replace DeMarco Murray. There’s really nobody on the roster now who is all too enticing for that role. But the Cowboys didn’t reach. They took cornerback Byron Jones of Connecticut, a very athletic player who fills another big need that’s tougher to fill.

The Cowboys get made fun of for making impulse buys. But that didn’t happen on Thursday. They’ll get a running back at some point. They just didn’t reach for one in the first round.

Pretty much everyone gave us an A dude can tackle,and play safety, we got a guy who's gonna excel at the next level

Again, why do we care what the media says?

An A grade? That pick got them a Master's degree at Winicki University.

They would've preferred we reached for a running back or take a pot head with mental issues? This same writer would've called us a loser if we did either or those options too.

 

[Silver N Blue]

Always a Cowboy hater somewhere...even after a SB win. I like the pick...but I wanted Jones there so I am biased.

He posted an anonymous snippet with no context and no further linking, the entire point of the post was just to point out a negative angle on the pick.

dumb.....draft a DLinemane and we lose cause he wont run for a 100 yards or make any ITs......draft a RB and.....blah blah. Guess we needed 3 first round picks to win

 

[TheRomoSexual]

Wow, the analysis that Jones is "not a DE or RB" and therefore sucks really swayed me.

Thanks for taking one article and ignoring about ten others which gave the Cowboys an A- or better.

This pick will be supported by most of the analysts.

All I'll say in defense of the pick is he is not a workout warrior. That's a guy who didn't really stand out on the field, then he blows up during workouts. Jones was more of a case of people paying more attention to the UConn product after the big combine performance.

I said before the draft that if we must take one at 27, this is the guy for me. So I'm trying to accept it that way but it still feels like a kiss on the lips from your Grandmother.

Unless we're moving him to FS. Stat.

Oh I see.... Dallas whites because this guy thinks we needed a runner or a linemen more. Ahhh why isn't he in the warrior? ;(

 

[CowboyChris]

I'm happy with the pick, and i felt CB was a need going into the draft, but i must say it wouldve been hard for me to pass on Malcolm Brown.
