TRADED Cowboys trade for George Pickens and 2027 6th for 2026 3rd and 2027 5th

[8FOR!3]

We said the same thing last year and the year before and the year before that...we can't accomplish it all in one year. But when you don't have a plan and just go year to year you end up like the Cowboys.

I do think the offense will be better. I don't think we are a championship caliber team. If this was a one year rental it was a bad move. And we could have tried and traded for a DT or LB. But apparently all they thought about was WR.

We said the same thing last year and the front office was about 10x as active as they were last year. Again I'm just not seeing your point. We saw value with a WR for a third round pick who has a ton of talent and he is young and might get another contract with us. It was worth the risk to the front office to see how it plays out. Trading for a DT is not so easy. And we literally traded for a career starter at LB. But you act like we didn't also sign Jack Sanborn who is likely a starting caliber run stopping LB. And yes they also added one with a late round pick. But that's on top of Marist/Overshown/Clark/Bell. We have plenty of depth at that position. It shouldn't be any kind of major weakness by any means.

He isn’t close to CDs level.

Doesn't mean he isn't a WR1.

Because he is.

The risk is you have over spent on a third round pick. Anything less than a successful season and either an extension or a 3rd or 4th round pick back has to be deemed a failure.

The comp project is either a 3rd or a fourth. So if he doesn't work out it's really just a push.

The risk is definitely worth it especially if he plays like he is capable of.

I do. It's post season that sucks.
Enjoy the regular season championship...

It's going to be an exciting year.

There is no risk. None.

Getting Pickens was. I said it back mid last season. Called it back then. Not Pickens but making a splashy move to appease the fans.

This was a move to improve the team. An area they had targeted even before the draft. Did you hear talk of making a move to upgrade the LB's? No. Did you hear talk of upgrading the S's? No. They did upgrade the DT's by drafting a player they had a 4th round grade on. They did not draft a WR. So now they make a move for a WR and it's marketing???

So we improved offense.
Threw a 7th rounder at defensive tackle one of the biggest areas of need.

Its shades of 2023. Top offense. Get your arse kicked in the playoffs

Clark sucks.
Bell was abused at LB
Overshown is injured yet again
And Marist who?

But ingress they come to Dallas and drink that magic water at the entrances and they are great players.

Late round picks are what they are. Late rounds picks don't work out 98% of the time.

And we have a one year rental. This is a move teams that are onenplayer away make. Do you think we are one player away from a superbowl?

Exciting regular season.

Possibly and beyond.

Most probably not.

Most probably not.

Off to a good start. I'll enjoy it, thank you very much.
