[speedkilz88]

lol wikipedia says
"He played college football at Florida and was drafted as a bust by the Buffalo Bills in the first round of the 2022 NFL draft."

too funny, must have been AI written, how can you be drafted as a bust?

Some kid edited it. It also originally said the Dallas Cow girls thoughout.

23rd pick in the first round of the 2022 draft.

NFW...another 1st round pick?

 

[Doomsday77]

Actually, he was a 64.5 PFF Grade last year…which was better than every Cowboys CB not named Lewis or Bland.

Weren't they the only CB's last year??

23rd pick in the first round of the 2022 draft.

I'm guessing that we picked up someone else's Kelvin Joseph.

 

[buybuydandavis]

1st round pick 2 years ago. 6'1 runs a 4.39

Perfect type to take a chance on

Yup.
Someone else's Kelvin Joseph.

Sometimes guys do turn it around. Mo had a couple of respectable seasons with the Jets. I think he had one with us before he left.

Losing Lewis hurt

Big time and so preventable. He’s been a solid player for years. Last year we offered him a one year just under 3 mil deal. You could have got a 3-4 year deal for half what he got. These one year deals and waiting to sign guys have only cost us players we wanted and more money. You have to think past tomorrow. If you aren’t gonna pay a guy then trade him while he’s still under contract. If you aren’t gonna pay gonna sign him do it soon as possible. Every year it only costs more

He was coming off an injury so nobody was offering him much money. His agent would never have signed a 3 yr cheap deal in that situation.

I wish all Harris could've coached him.

Dallas Cowboys cornerback room after losing Jourdan Lewis to the Jaguars:
DaRon Bland
Trevon Diggs (could miss start of season)
Caelen Carson]
Josh Butler (expected to miss majority of season)
Andrew Booth Jr.
Kemon Hall

Long-term injuries have been an issue for a couple of years now. Diggs tore his ACL in Week 2 of the 2023 season against the New York Jets, forcing him to miss the entire year.

The recovery process was a long one for Diggs but getting back on the field was a huge success.

He had a procedure called chondral tissue graft. This is surgery to repair damaged articular cartilage that lines the ends of bones in a joint.

It is going to be a lot of DaRon Bland, and they will need him to have another All-Pro type season.

As of now, the Cowboys CB room has Bland and Elam as the starters, with Caelen Carson, Kemon Hall, Andrew Booth in the mix. That kinda hurts to look at.
