Dream: Pick one player (not QB) from any team that makes us an instant contender

[Diehardblues]

I don’t believe we are one player away.

I don’t even think we are a Mahomes away. Might get us closer.

Can we trade for a new owner and or GM?
I believe we are an owner or GM away.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

There isn't one. Not that isn't a QB.

Thats my thought. We desperately need at least 3 maybe 4 critical positions. Both trenches an lber. And still....need rb1.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

I understand that Christian Mac is great. With all respect to you guys though, without a huge upgrade in the beast positions- DT, LB and OL, skill position guys won’t help us enough IMO.

There you go. We need all three of those. One isnt changing things. Its doable with some clever hard work...and luck.

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

Chris Jones is that one area that's been sorely needed for a long time. That interior D line has to be the choice at this point.

I also agree Chris Jones would transform Dallas better than other choices

 

[Ranching]

Rule was you can’t pick a QB. And just pick one in the end.

He's just sharing his thoughts.....lol

I think it'll take more than one, but if it's just one, I'm probably picking Joey Bosa....this would allow Parsons to play sideline to sideline as LB. Jones, Watt or the other Bosa would accomplish the same.

 

[kskboys]

Since Jones was mentioned I'll go with either Myles Garrett (1st choice) or Maxx Crosby.

Exactly who I was thinking!!!!!

Quinnen Williams would be hard to pass on.

 

[Creeper]

There isn't one player that puts this team over the top. They need at least 2 on defense and 2 on offense.

You’re crazy if you don’t think Mahomes or Chris Jones takes this team to the next level

 

[TheBigEasy]

Don't know about making this team an instant contender but definitely an immediate upgrade at a position of need and someone who won't break the bank.

Marlon Humphrey

Honorary mention...barring injury, this guy is going to be a stud.

Mohamoud Diabate

No position change but 1 truly makes a team

Dream Scenario: Pick one player from any team (NOT A QB) that by adding that player makes us an instant contender and WHY? (This is just for fun…I know some of the guys below are under contract with other teams. Just having fun here)

For me, I would consider three players as candidates before making my final choice.

• Candidate 1: Chiefs DT Chris Jones. First team All Pro. He represents everything we need on defense - a completely disruptive force on the LOS for defending the run and capable of also pressuring the QB. Offensive coordinators would immediately have to game plan for this guy and all he could do to disrupt their offensive game plan.
• Candidate 2: Niners LB Fred Warner. A two time first team All Pro, Warner can do it all. An athletic LB big enough to stuff the run while also outstanding in coverage. He’s a physical monster who brings the wood every play.
• Candidate 3: Lions OT Penai Sewell. A first team All Pro last year and still just 23 with huge upside. An excellent run blocker as well as pass blocker, he has already been a force on the lions excellent offense.

MY FINAL CHOICE: Chris Jones. As I stated above, he’s almost everything this defense desperately needs to finally be able to stop the run and control the LOS. And…he’s a FA.

Sadly, I doubt we have a chance, but he is exactly what this team needs most.
Who would you choose and WHY?

You’re way too smart to suggest that an OT makes any team an instant contender.

Sewell was a part of 3 whole wins before Goff showed up and actually changed things.

There’s only 1 position that can take a team from nothing to instant contenders and we’re not allowed to pick for that position.

So I’ll go with Fred Warner because he’s the best at what were the worst at on defense.

 

[RodeoJake]

Vita Vea. Put him at 1T, and Parsons and Tank will be even more effective.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

If not for Chris Jones Mahomes wouldn’t have those rings.

 

[jazzcat22]

ZEKE .... ... J/K

Warner or Greenlaw at LB.
That is what we need the most and to be an impact difference maker.

 

[LACowboysFan1]

Warner. As noted, he can stuff the run, so he fills two problem areas - run stopping and pass coverage. Jones is great, and no doubt would be a huge help, but he'll be 30 in July, and you never know when older players will drop off in performance. Warner's 2 years younger, and LB'ers like him are hard to find...

 

[shabazz]

You’re crazy if you don’t think Mahomes or Chris Jones takes this team to the next level

It would take BOTH

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Name the player that was picked @34, three picks in front of Chris Jones.

You’re right MC that one player won’t make us an instant contender. I was just curious what position fans would prioritize (besides QB knowing JJ isn’t changing that) as the most important to make us better. I probably didn’t word it clear enough.

 

[Nexx]

Chris Jones is a no brainer.

 

[Jayinem]

Can Chris Jones or Fred Warner make Dak clutch in the playoffs? If so pay them whatever it takes so bring them here. If not, we're still not contenders.

 

[Jayinem]

Name the player that was picked @34, three picks in front of Chris Jones.

lol Jaylon Smith. Why'd you have to do that to depress me?

One pick before ours the Titans drafted Kevin Dodd (who?) another linebacker who had a total of 12 tackles for his career.
