I think we lack the coach if to take whoever they select to get them ready to help us. I know we could use about 5 rookies to move up and start or add to depth. Not sure I have seen McCarthys talent at the making significant contributions to shaping the roster and moving positively by NFL Standards. Not there for me.
I can only judge a man by what he has repeatedly done. It's clear that a man can make a mistake, but what's important to note is that a smart man learns from his mistakes and does his best to correct it. I have only know McCarthy as the Green Bay head coach. He didn't have stellar defenses and the offense seemed to be more about the QB talent than it did about the scheme. So while this seems like an attack on the coach, it's more about my wish to have a better GM and owner. You keep making the same mistake. This is Dallas... Find a coach that knows football and get out of the way. Sure you can stand in the way, you can say "this is my team..." But you will never win based upon the evidence. Then couple that with the fans that will blindly follow him off a cliff.
Each time someone is released, some one is saying "what about X?" Come on, what person really wants to come to a sinking ship? Why is this team often looking for a bargain? It's a poor mindset. Go find the best talent (healthy physically and mentally) and convince them to come to Dallas.
I know this is slightly off topic, but could you imagine the conversation in 1993 in Green Bay between Mike Holmgren, Reggie White and his agent? We need that in Dallas. We need the mindset to change. Why do we want players like Farley? Low football IQ? Or have do some of the fans suffer from Stockholm Syndrome? You have a player that didn't play at a great school (Virginia Tech) and was often hurt, but sure when healthy (seldom) seem to be ranked in the first 4 rounds at all and over a player that played at arguably at the best school, by the best coach and started and won championships (Alabama)? I just don't get it. I know college is not the NFL, but my eyes tell me that if a player is always available and plays at a very high level, I want him on my team....
Anyhow, we will know in just 3 weeks
