News: DMN: Evaluating the Cowboys: During a rough season, which players actually exceeded...

[Nova]

Nonsense. Bailey and Collins did. Lawrence. McFadden. I'd put Free up there for most of you although I think he was solid. Irving probably the most. I'd put Lee here. The entire OL.

Disappointments:

Wilcox
Church some
Mo
All other CBs except Jones
Hitchens
Ro
Hardy
Gregory

There are some others who go on the negative roster and some who get an incomplete.

Hitch was my biggest disappointment. Though I think he's one of those guys that just needs playing time to get in a groove. Not very talented, but smart and has to be on the field a lot to really see the game.

We have the worst set of safeties I have ever seen on a roster, its pitiful.

I'm telling you, man. There aren't a lot of good safeties in this league.

A lot of teams are in our boat.

Thousand yards ya for sure. Healthy season ya kind of. Murray had one.

Strange season. Only 7 backs topped 1,000 yards. McFadden finished the season ranked 4th despite not starting most of the season.

I think the issue with Hitch, is he is playing out of position. He is more natural to play where Lee plays.

That too. But I have confidence in Hitch. I think he could do both about the same. But he just didn't get enough reps.

More of a gut feeling than analysis though, tbh.

Top two teams in each division

Carolina -- Roman Harper 2nd rounder, Kurt Coleman 7th rounder
Arizona -- Johnson 3rd rounder, Honey Badger 3rd rounder, Tony Jefferson undrafted

New England -- McCourty 1st rounder, Patrick Chung 2nd rounder
Denver -- TJ Ward 2nd rounder, Darian Stewart undrafted.

Not very many top end draft picks out there. Most guys, outside of Stewart are big school kids with tons of experience. Alabama, Ohio State, LSU, Oklahoma etc.

I agree. I don't know what his ceiling is though.
