Like I said, they are like novice chess players. They don't protect their pieces and they think only of the next move. If everything falls their way it will be checkmate. But if not, Jerry loses his queen and puts his king in check.
If Steele plays okay.
If they hit a home run in the draft at LG and WR.
If Tyron Smith does not get hurt and miss 3 or more games.
If the DTs improve over last year.
If Fowler has a breakout year.
If, if, if....
But he has not hedged on any one of these unknowns. No backup plan. Last year the big ifs were Just Williams and Biadasz, and possibly DT. At least they signed Watkins and Urban as a backup plan at DT.
Jerry has telegraphed his draft. He needs a LG in the worst way. Teams drafting behind him will trade up to get in front of him and take the LG Jerry has targeted. Or, I wouldn't put it past the Eagles to use one of their picks to take Jerry's target just to keep the Cowboys from getting him.
