Jerry and his first rounder tunnel vision

The lazy approach to signing bodies…. Since Jerry and son have no expertise in player evaluations they feel other teams FO must have regarded them as first round talent at some point .. So sign ‘em up.

And you wind up getting players who don’t fit what you need…such as stopping the run.

Jerry and the genius of the steal!

I remember when each part of the NFL season was fun.
Those day's are long gone.
Our Cowboys the past 30 years.
Free agency is terrible every year.
The draft has been our only highlight.
The regular season is always a disappointment.
I don't understand how we're still one of the best teams, fan wise, in the NFL. In another 10 years that won't be so anymore. Not with Jerry and Steven still killing us.

With the right coach, he could be worth the risk.

I'm convinced their pro-scouts are really their grand kids who just play Madden and try to find 70 overall players with high potential.

I am 69 years young and am far less a Cowboys fan then I used to be. I used to have a draft party of Cowboy fans like me. BBQ and beer. We made our own Cowboys draft boards. We all had Cowboys Jerseys on.

Those days are done. Jerry is far older then us and while he can still sling a line to the fans, the effort to put a top flight team on the field just isn't there. He doesn't understand that just hanging around the rim doesn't do it. You have to have players who can tear that rim down and shatter it. That takes effort and involves taking more risk, not less. Jerry is acting like he has already won the Super Bowl and trying to keep his few difference makers from leaving. Guess what Jerry, you haven't won squat and the Cowboys have become irrelevant. Is what it is as Bill P said. We are what Jerry has made us and sadly that means we will require a Lotta luck to even be a contender in our own Division.

Let's give this a chance. Be positive. The guy has the size, he just needs to stay on the field, and then maybe he has the light come on with more experience. I have no problem at all throwing lots of low risk darts on signing guys.

Yeah, I'm like totally stoked that he got us a rad 1st rounder, dude!

That's how you own free agency.....Jerry's got his fastball back

If this was a coach's choice, I'll stay positive. If this is one of the Jones boys trying to outsmart everyone else, then I'll return to my perennial ennui.

I agree

 

[Jarntt]

Can you clarify this dribble.

If you don't understand it then that just reinforces your cluelessness on the topic. Everyone else sure understood it loud and clear...

 

[cowboyec]

love his size but i don't remember him from that draft.
only 4yrs in the league so its worth the shot.
as long as they still address the de spot in the draft...im ok with it.
from this gm....expected.

 

[Sydla]

Same old.

Sign a bunch of JAGs. Depth guys that they can cut for little pain if they end up sucking (and many do).

Not a one can actually move the needle and make a real big impact.

Jerry and his idiot son never learn.

 

[Stash]

I think we have arguably the worst pro personnel staff in the league.

Seems like they just look at a spreadsheet and sort by ‘Round drafted’, no matter what the guy has ( or hasn’t) done in the league.

 

[Pompey-Cowboy]

If we scrape any lower in the barrel, one of us will be getting signed soon.
