Kaiir Elam on why things didn't work out in Buffalo

[CCBoy]

He's 'In love with the Tradition"?!?! Does he mean losing and embarrasment, 30 years of playoff futility?

No, you do...and believe in a 30 year calendar and not in self determination by a motivated man.

 

[Kwyn]

Excuses. Don't love it.

Below is the only comment any new Cowboy can make that won’t be crapped on

“I’m worthless, but with the love and faith of the fans, I will try to do better. I just want the fans to know that I hate Jerry and Stephen, all of the coaches and all of my new teammates. I’m also pledging to play for free. Thank you Jesus and thank you fans”.

 

[Kwyn]

If you don't mindlessly praise every signing of a former first round washout from other teams, you are a traitor.

Prepare to be tried for high treason.

We all HOPE that all of these signings work out, but we all know that these types of players are zeroes 99% of the time.

And if you don’t hate every player, every coach and every decision, then you’re a homer.

 

[Reid1boys]

Not really. Maybe they decided to go in a different direction.
Why does everything need to be a negative?

Jazzcat, My name is Reid1boys, since you are new here, lets take a tour and I will show you around......lol

How about:

“It just didn’t work out. I hate that. I take my share of the responsibility but I’m going to double down on myself and show cowboy fans why I was a first round pick. New beginnings.”

Grow up, chuckles...


Do tell us where Parish sits at present...

Previous similar players with same characteristics:

Terence Newman​

HT: 5'10" | WT: 189 | Arm: 31 3/8" | 40: 4.37 | 10-yd split: 1.56 | Broad: 11'4" | Vert: 41" | Bench: 10 reps​

Like Jacob Parrish, Terence Newman is also a Kansas State alum and was drafted by the Cowboys fifth overall in the first round in the 2003 NFL Draft. The two-time Pro Bowler's size and athletic testing numbers are nearly identical to Parrish's, minus Newman besting him in the broad and vertical jump. Newman was a fan favorite during his time in Dallas and it wouldn't be all that surprising if Parrish follows in his footsteps if drafted by the Cowboys.

Jourdan Lewis​

HT: 5'10" | WT: 188 | Arm: 31 5/8" | 40: 4.47 | 10-yd split: 1.59 | Broad: 10'1" | Vert: 34.5" | Bench: 15 reps​

Could Jacob Parrish be the next Jourdan Lewis for the Cowboys? It's entirely possible if we were to solely base his fit comparing their size and athletic testing numbers. Lewis was a former third-round pick (92nd overall) in the 2017 NFL Draft and was a mainstay in Dallas' secondary. Parrish is also projected to be a third-round selection and very well could step in as Lewis' replacement in the slot as a rookie.

Jaylon Johnson​

HT: 5'11" | WT: 193 | Arm: 31 3/8" | 40: 4.50 | 10-yd split: 1.59 | Broad: 10'4" | Vert: 36.5" | Bench: 15 reps​

Jaylon Johnson was a was a second-round pick (50th overall) in the 2020 NFL Draft by the Chicago Bears. His comparison to Jacob Parrish may carry more weight considering he excelled in Matt Eberflus' defense during their time together in Chicago. The two-time Pro Bowler and one-time Second-Team All-Pro CB provides some evidence Parrish's lack of ideal size shouldn't hinder his fit in Eberflus' defense on the outside or even in the nickel.

Jaire Alexander​

HT: 5'10" | WT: 196 | Arm: 31 1/8" | 40:4.38 | 10-yd split: 1.52 | Broad: 10'7" | Vert: 35" | Bench: 14 reps​

Jaire Alexander was a first-round pick (18th overall) in the 2018 NFL Draft by the Green Bay Packers. Although injuries have been a problem for him lately, he's been one of the better outside CBs when healthy since entering the league and has been named to the Pro Bowl twice as well as being a two-time Second-Team All-Pro., Maybe Jacob Parrish can follow suit, minus the injuries of course.

Or does this have strength involved? Better check your calendar, chuckles.

The Dallas Cowboys lost Jourdan Lewis in NFL free agency as the veteran defensive back signed a deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars. That leaves a hole in the slot, but that could be filled by safety Israel Mukuamu, a 2021 sixth-round pick out of South Carolina.

Mukuamu played cornerback for the Gamecocks but Dallas converted the 6-foot-4, 205-pounder to safety in the NFL. He's developed into a solid depth piece, which was evident in 2022 when Lewis missed 11 games and Mukuamu was asked to take over as the nickel back.

Free agency is in progress and the draft is still a month away. Chuckles, talk some football...without insult.

With his return, Thomas is eager to get going and he shared a brief message about his return online.

Thomas, who is changing his jersey number from No. 30 to No. 2, which was worn by former nickel corner Jourdan Lewis, and has a clear perspective.

"Cultural reset" appears to be a clear goal for the Cowboys under the Brian Schottenheimer routine. The new coaching staff is bringing in a new approach and players appear to be buying in.

The additions of players like Solomon Thomas, Jack Sanborn, Kenneth Murray, and Dante Fowler will help the team along the way.

He's not the first underperforming 1st round pick we've acquired. There's one in Washington who looked pretty bad for Dallas, but looks better in Washington.

This kid of obviously hyped up about his chance on a new team, but he needs to show it. I am sick of cheap talk in Dallas.
