1st Bold Phrase: highly questionable.

2nd Bold Phrase: pure, unadulterated conjecture. Unless your name is Stephen Jones, you have no way of knowing that.


True.. I saw an interview where Bennett said that he still speaks with Jerry and Jerry wanted to keep him at the time but he didn't feel like Dallas was the best situation for him.

That someone else is Jason Witten. He is a HOF calibre TE is still going strong 3-4 years after Marty left.

I don't think ANYBODY is to blame here.


Then they should stop selecting these guys in the 2nd round if they are clueless as to how to get value back from that selevtion.

If this was just a random FA or late round TE it would be no big deal but we are investing picks that should be cornerstone players.


Nothing about Fasano, Bennett, or Escobar screams cornerstone for how we use them.

Well, just when I thought this was going nowhere, I was rewarded with today's "you'll never experience that again moment"

Witten = gazelle. 2 things that will never appear together again in an analogy

There are plenty of jungles on the planet Jupiter, I guess.

I am seeing that he will be inactive? thats a shame because we are keeping him out for 2 special plays for Dunbar .

I bet we see Dunbar more than two plays. But, really, Michael should be inactive until he's got a firm grasp of the playbook. We've got three RBs active already, and his conditional pick is related to his status on the game day roster.

If you look at some of the tight ends in the nfl, the cowboys created them...

The fact that we haven't been able to produce in a 12 formation is mind boggling...

Jason Witten
Martellus Bennett
John Phillips
Anthony Fasano
Scott Chandler

Let it go. Of the 3 the most recent drafted was 2013. The team has been stellar in drafting since. I realize there isn't as much to pick on anymore but do we have to keep rehashing this?

Escobar can be a solid contributor to us this season. Let's hope for the best. This organization is as wise as ever with plenty more hits than misses nowadays.
