Twitter: Current draft order

[jazzcat22]

So we were at 4 before the game and 4 after the win.
I thought that win would drop us quite a bit.
Outside of the two QBs and Sewell the first round will be a crapshoot anyway.
I guess the linebacker from Penn State would be a nice consolation prize.

We were at #3 before the game.

So we will end up 6-10 and win the division. Then lose in the WC round. Effectively shooting ourselves in the foot. We need a top 8 pick.

Why??????? Nothing in this draft projecting a top 8 defensive player is any better than a top 15

 

[starfan1]

The Niners are very well coach team and have very good qb. Jimmy G might be back that week. That might not be an easy win.

Nothing is an easy win with this team. Guyer High might give them all they can handle lol

No one wants to play us in the playoffs.

#4
The Commanders were at #3

 

[lwehlers]

A win Thursday could drop us to the bottom of the top 10......

well it looks like the top three spots are locked the rest of the year. so if the cowboys miss the playoffs they will be anywhere between 5-18 in the draft order. but of course if they make the playoffs then in the twenties.

This is why we will maintain mediocrity for several more years.

there's no guarantee even with a top pick that wont remain mediocre. I get your argument and partially agree with it but Id rather win. The league has examples of teams going from mediocre to division champ each year. Look at Pittsburgh ,Look at Indy. I think every year is different and depending on a few moves and a few breaks things can change in a hurry. This is a bad year to benchmark. the common denominator for mediocrity for the cowboys is not so much where you pick but whos doing the picking

 

[ChronicCowboy]

If Dallas plays the rest of the season like they did yesterday, they’re winning the division and picking 19th or lower.

The goal is to win Superbowls..

Winning a division championship is almost meaningless.

They're also looking like they are going to let almost half the league into the playoffs eventually making the division championship even more meaningless.

Dallas needs difference making players. They need to add someone electric to the team.

Good..

Let's drop like a rock.

I prefer good football watching over draft research any day.

100%.......

Unfortunately the top 3 is now set. We might as well win the East now. We just need three more wins.

You mean like Zeke, or like Taco or Jaylon or LVE, Mo Claiborne maybe its how they use their pick IMO. The jets and WFT are perennial top 5 pickers and how close are they. We could go through our past rosters and find good football players that wasnt picked in top 10. look at Zach and Tfred . I think DWare was #11. Theyve had electric as you put it they just havent put together a good defense and special teams at the same time.

again the problem isnt this pick its the pickers. In my heart i believe we are going to win the division. We may very well pick 17-25 range it might be time to start the researching for electric in that range or maybe just solid. We have a better coaching structure it seems where id the best defender in that area

 

[baltcowboy]

If we win the division, which I full anticipate happening, isn’t the best pick we can get 21st?

19 because of the extra playoff teams.

 

[Redball Express]

100%.......

When we look back later..

the biggest thing I think Big Mike has done..

Is cutting those 3 guys before the Bye Week.

It got the teams attention back on football and to quit feeling sorry for themselves.

Interesting.

Very interesting.

Funny how play improves when you are faced with being fired in a world wide illness.

 

[Avery]

The hard thing is this: we're not drafting a QB even if we're in the top two. Dak is who this FO wants (at least for another year). The next best prospect is Sewell who would be my choice at #3 even though it's not a top priority.

After that, it becomes more blurry about best fits and where. If Dallas actually had a #4/#5 pick, I would definitely be trying to trade down anyway.

Getting sick of seeing those mocks of Surtain II at #4 - I'm not drafting any CB at #4 ever and there's no Deions anymore.

I don't mind how the Cowboys draft. In general I think it's something they are decent at when compared to most of the league.

 

[Cowboyny]

The Niners are very well coach team and have very good qb. Jimmy G might be back that week. That might not be an easy win.

There are no easy wins, but the schedule is very manageable to think they have a better shot of winning the division then they do getting a top 3 pick in the draft.

 

[big dog cowboy]

This is like watching the power rankings each week back when we were good.
