In moderation, and in some good role positions, absolutely.

All across the board, or at major positions, as you said just simply isn't smart business and doesn't make sense in the long term.

Which is the problem with the general, or casual, NFL fans. They only see the small picture. The right here, right now, in the moment.

They can't think beyond that.

You got it. We all want a championship but I'm not willing to make a 1 year run for it.

A little quiz for you. Who plays on the other side of Jenkins?

Does not matter who is on the other side. If you are a QB you look for this WR and throw it to him if he is open.

Who is this WR?

Yes, it does matter. When you are a great/good CB and the guy playing across from you is a terrible CB, then opposing QB's will attach the terrible CB. How many times was the ball thrown at Jenkins vs. Newman?

So you are trying to tell me that as bad as Jenkins got toasted in 2010 that the QB's this year were just being nice to him and not looking at his side ALL season. Is that what you are trying to say? I mean for petes sake, in 2010 all you had to do was throw the ball towards Jenkins and you were going to get a completion or a PI

Since you don't want to back anything up by facts and you just want to go by reputation then you really have no argument at all!

It was Larry Fitzgerald by the way!

I think it says something about both Jenkins and Newman. Jenkins took away the Cards #1 target and Newman game has fallen off to the point that he allowed the #2 to eat his lunch. I have always liked Newman but Cowboys need to go out and get an outside CB. I'm comfortable with the job Jenkins is doing

I think that guy was the 3-4 WR as a matter of fact. The point is though that for most of that game the Cards had no passing attack. Newman gave up a ton in the late 3rd and 4th qtr if I remember correctly. I don't believe Arizona had much success at all passing early in the game which means that Jenkins had Fitz locked up for the majority of the game!

And by the way Nnamdi got a ton of his rep by QB's NOT throwing his way -- does that take away from the job he was doing?

I guess it nullifies it !

I agree. Newman had a bad season I'm sure injury played a part but then Jenkins was contending with injuries but he stepped up and played good football for us. I don't think Dallas can afford to continue on with Newman. Hopefully we can get a quality CB out of this draft.

Every season Newman gets excused for some because he plays with injury. Bottom line is either that's a bogus excuse, or the guy just can't stay healthy enough to be the player he needs to be.

Oh, I am done with Newman. His groin is probably one of the main reasons for his demise - that and age but we should be through paying him money.

He should just retire - he really is no different than Ball

I make no excuses. I expect if you are on the field playing then you are at least healthy enough to play and if you play I expect you to do your job. Jenkins was dealing with injuries but he went out and did his job. Tony Romo was injured and went out and did the job.

Except for the fact Ball played very well in special teams. Ball gets beat up by fans but he is a 4th string guy and a special teams player and I don't expect the same level of play from him as I would my starters.

They had a off year but that doesn't mean they aren't hands down better than glass jaw Jenkins who has been a PROVEN QUITTER in the past. He has let players walk into the end zone right in front of his face MULTIPLE times. He might be the best the Cowboys have which says very little considering how pathetic our defense is, but he isn't top 10 in the league and he isn't better than any of the names mentioned already in this thread.

Here is your boy Jenkins quitting on a play. He did a ton of times in 2010 along with the other quitters on the team that year. I don't care for players like that who wear the star.

:laugh2:

Oh you mean he quit on some plays in 2010 like the entire team did? Guess according to you we should get rid of Ware, Ratliff, and the whole bunch then, huh?

Im not concerned with past years and past accomplishments. Im saying that last year, Jenkins was a better player than the guys i listed. That's all. I never made a comment on top 10, top 5 or anything like that.. but i have an opinion of where he should be on that list as far as his play last season.

You aren't playing along Dooms. Lets try this.. Hypothetically, would you trade Mike Jenkins for Nnamdi straight up? No money.. just Jenkins for Nnamdi? Yes or no?

Lets ask more silly questions that have no relevance to real life situations!

Ok, i got one..

If you had to do one girl, would it be Cher or Megan Fox? :)
