The only team I would not want to be drafted by is the Commanders. I consider that franchise to be racist and I would not want to play there under any circumstance. I would have alerted them ahead of time to my feelings as I think that is the honorable thing to do.

My goal to play in the NFL would make just about any other franchise palatable just to reach a dream.

Zach Thomas managed a great career. Others have too. I might not like being drafted by many other teams, but it would not have changed my goals.

I would restart from my last save in SuperStar mode, then try again.

I would play the best that I could(and try and beat the Cowboys arse's when we played them) in hopes of the Cowboys one day signing me when I become a Free Agent.

Yep. Serious.

But if you think about it, you would be betraying what you love as well for the money.

It would suck like Hell, though, especially if it were the Commanders. I tell you what though, I would hire Rosenhaus to make sure I could get every penny out of Snyder that I could.

I would not be betraying what I love. If the cowboys didn't draft me, I think I would feel betrayed... If another team drafted me, I would have to do all I can to earn the paycheck...even if it was against the Cowboys.

I'd immediately become a fan of the team that drafted me. I love the Cowboys but if a team drafted me my loyalty would have to go there cause they're giving me money to live out a dream.
Unless that team is the Eagles. They have no loyalty for you no matter how much you think so. Plus the fans there suck and their breath smells bad.

Not necessarily. Take this draft for example: The Cowboys didn't have a first round pick, and what if you were good enough to go in the top 5? It would be nearly impossible for the Cowboys to move up and get you no matter how much they wanted to.

Now, if the Cowboys pass you by, numerous times, then that's a different story. I would still give it my all to the team that does draft me, like you, but I think once my contract was up, I would not re-sign with that team if I felt I could get onto the Cowboys roster after 4 years or so.

That would be funny as hell.

and with the 6th pick in the NFL draft... the Eagles select CowboyJoe....

CowboyJoe has passed and is waiting for the Cowboys to pick at 32 ;)

I would beat the snot out of the Cowboys because I am now loyal to who drafted me and am a professional football player.

I would hope the Eagles or Giants drafted me, because anyone who drafted me would be making a monumental waste of a pick.

If the Eagles or Skins drafted me, I would retire, plain and simple.

I would play for the Giants, cause Tom Landry did, afterall.

If I couldn't be a Cowboy, then I would hope the Texans drafted me, so my parents and siblings would still be able to see me on a weekly basis, since they show all the Texans games here in SA, as well as the Cowboys games.

As far as letting Dallas win to get to the SB, #%$* NO. My job is to win games and championships. I have 52 teammates (brothers) and all those coaches....as well as the thousands, if not millions of fans who spend their time and money to support us....No way do I take just so THE STAR can get the glory.

I would not sign, I would either wait till the next draft, or wait till the next draft, and while I was waiting I would be getting as close as I can to the Cowboys brass. Probably would not even take a chance in the following year's draft, just wait until the Boys had tryouts and make the team that way.

You would never know it, by the way he is always trashing us.

I would hold an interview and complain I cannot throw the ball or call the plays? The I would say I need to have the ball thrown to me, so i can make plays because thats what I do, make plays. Then I would go out and have 8 games of 40 yards recieving.
