Ever notice how they each have that 'cat who ate the canary' look as if they are outsmarting everyone?

Yeah me too. They are fully convinced that they are just setting the standard.

Like Jerry to Fisher.....'this is exactly how it's done and why'......as if it's some proven flawless formula.

Makes me want to break things that I value.
You gotta let it go!

We obviously have a secret third round guard set to draft. Or Martin is going left and McGovern right.

Or we will play unbalanced with 3 tackles and 1 guard. Or an unsigned veteran will pay us to let him start.

Have you heard of the story of the three 5th rounders picked in the same year all forced to start week one :(

At guard, adding Trai Turner would be a classically decent move. He's still 28 years old, and should be able to give them better play than what the Cowboys got from Connor Williams. Also wouldn't prevent them from drafting a guy to develop as the long term option. They should also look at an Eddie Goldman type at the 1T - he's also 28, and would improve the run defense significantly.

Turner is a 5X pro bowler. Not sure why he cannot find work.

Ironically : Executive vice president Stephen Jones noted after the 2014 NFL Draft that had the Cowboys not traded the number 78 overall selection in a deal to move up to select Boise State defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence, they would have used that pick to draft Turner, whom they regarded as an immediate starter.

What's up with Trai Turner? Early in his career he went to 5 straight pro bowls and lately nobody wants him. Made only 3 million last year.

1 of 2 things has to be true

1. The front office WILDLY underestimated the WR market

2. There was drama behind the scenes involving Amari we don’t know about

By the end of this off-season Amari is going to be like 12th highest paid WR just ahead of Golladay and Kirk
