Many times!!!!!
Wow, that explains a lot. Our GM is so bad. :facepalm:

I appreciate you nonetheless. After all, you can't force Jerry to make better decisions. I guess being a billionaire he sees things like crystal balls that tell the future and just takes them for granted. ;)

I used to be on the other side of the coin, thinking there was no way guys on a website could draft better than the "experts."

Then the 09 draft happened. Lord ha' mercy, that was just stupid. Suddenly I started looking around and saw fellow posters posting much better drafts predraft than what we did.

Oh, and the MO draft. A fellow poster was from Louisana, big LSU fan, and he hated the pick. Mo's scouting report read like a mid round talent. Just like he played, BTW. Know who I was screaming for in that draft? Brockers first, but then I was just sure we were trading up to get Fletcher Cox. I cried a little bit(in between screams) when we took frickin' MO. And shocker of all shockers, he played just like his scouting report said he would.

I have no idea what we use to determine talent, but I do know that a frickin' magazine from Walmart provides better info than what Jerry apparently has.


I’m not sure if he was still here (or came back) for that Claiborne, but Lacewell was a negative influence on drafts for quite a while.

The Cowboys have the scouting department in place for success. They just need to listen to them.

Remember to never bet against the loins. The Watts have genetics. I would take out futures contracts on TJ and JJs kids for the year 2045 right now!

If we had Watt, we probably do not take Parsons with that high of a pick. We were desperate for a LB since LVE and Jaylon were not long for this team.

Would be an absolutely killer duo, though.
