FO paid some wrong people this year

[Creeper]

No one will ever convince me that Jerry didn't sign those guys after trading away Parsons just to take the heat off the Parsons trade. He wants you to believe he could sign them because he doesn't have to pay Parsons but the fact is he could have signed all of them and signed Parsons too. I was certain he was going to let Ferguson go in free agency like he did with Schultz. I definitely would have waited to sign Bland. and signing Luepke is almost inconsequential. He is not making a lot of money, just more than he deserves based on how little they use him.

Ferg has played well but he keeps fumbling. Bland….i don’t even know what’s his deal. I can’t even imagine Luepke deal being big.

Fergs ok but he is just that ok. And his blocking isn’t great and he fumbles.

Paying him was kinda pointless. He is an easily replaceable guy.

 

[goshann]

The signings of Ferguson, Bland and Leupke (LOL) look really bad right about now.

lol on the list of issues this is way down the list and debatable

Well for me with Ferg it’s like I’d rather pay him than spend another first or second on a tight end. A necessary evil to protect these guys from themselves lol.

They always sign the wrong players and pay them too much. That's the Cowboys way.

Everything on this board is debatable. And I didnt realize we could only post things High on the list.

Ill be sure to ask how far down the list I can go before making a thread next time.

I’ll ask permission next time.

Just dm me before you post something and I’ll let you know my thoughts before

You can get guys like Ferg in the 4th. The cowboys do it regularly.

My biggest issue is he has been making mistakes all season. Drops, fumbles, penalties. He is actively hurting the team this year.

Luepke was the mystery signing to me.
He'd done nothing. They let him do nothing.
Then they extended him.
And he's gotten 11 touches this year.

I loved the *idea* of Luepke. But my idea was to use him. Their idea was to pay him and not use him.

We seem to like doing that with FBs. Did the same with the Raider FB we signed.

Well we can’t say they do it regularly because they face a history of Gavin Escobar, Schoonmaker had Fasano. Ferg just needs to tighten up. Hes not a fumbler.

Tighten up? He’s been bad all year with the drops. He has been a major factor in multiple losses this year.

They found dalton Schultz before him. They’re better drafting TE’s in the 4th than they are the second.

They should have just extended Schultz if they were gonna pay a TE.

 

[TNCowboy]

Include Tyler Smith in that mess. He’s been average at best, highest paid NFL guard.

 

[aikemirv]

Ferguson is a good signing - bad game but good player. He just needed to go down!

 

[TNCowboy]

7th fumble in the last 2 seasons. Half of what Kelce has in his entire career. The same as Zach Ertz has in his entire 13 yr career. He’s got a real problem. He’s absolutely a fumbler.

 

[TNCowboy]

Ferguson is a jag. Could’ve easily drafted a comparable or better player almost every year. Terrible blocker, receiver only who might break 1 tackle per season, while repeatedly committing dumb penalties and fumbling. Disastrous signing.

Yeah but Schultz was mid. Blah. I think Ferg is better than that. If Ferg stops them from using a 2nd on a tight end again then I’ll take it.

 

[dmq]

My bet is if we sign Pickins, he will pull a T Diggs type move next year.

Well he needs to stop costing them games.

How many games can he make drastic mistakes before we say enough is enough.

I mean these silly drops and fumbles can be the difference.

What game has he cost us?

 

[HungryLion]

What game has he cost us?

He has had multiple games with massive mistakes.

Drops in the first eagles games.

Last night.

Fumbles and drops in other games.

Like he has been an active detriment to the team in 3-4 games this year. And his productivity doesn’t outweigh the mistakes.
