We have a Damone.

And LVE.

That is good enough and we don't have to dole out a mega contract in the offseason.
Respectfully will disagree, even with LVE the D had its issues. Now he def played better but if this defense wants to go to the next level, its has to upgrade the MLBer position and for the past zillion years DT.

As for Clark, not seeing it - yes he missed training camp, coming off injury and is a rookie - I still think he's too tentative.

Clark needs some seasoning.
Rookie without training camp.

The Cowboys would have a better team had they hung onto Amari Cooper and made more solid moves during the offseason. James Washington has been a wasted signing. The Hankins move was good but too bad he got hurt.

Jerry had to force tight was Stephen to spend a little on picking up vets. I was pleasantly surprised

I think the Eagles forced the Jones hands. The Eagles front office has been aggressively smart at acquiring talent both last year, in the draft and FA this year….Jerry had to do something

I'm having "Who gets the credit?" flashbacks to a year ago about this time. I'm saving any kudos for the end of the season.

It's their job to build a roster. Let's see what it ultimately accomplishes.:popcorn:
Understood
I am not letting the front office off the hook.
I still think they have made errors.
But I try and be fair.
I can't blast them for their blunders and not give them credit for their successes.
That's disingenuous.

Yep they made several screw ups in the off season.

He was getting outclassed big-time
Must've been embarrassing to get out GMed
By a divisional rival.

Had they knew the team was going to be as good as it has been they wouldn’t have made them. It was almost like the Joneses were preparing for a down year. Moving on from a couple of solid receivers and signing a jag that’s still hasn’t caught his first pass with the team yet was certainly not the Joneses going all in for the 2022 season.

Yep misjudging this team by the front office
Shocking!
In all fairness with the loss of talent, I was preparing for a down year myself

We were all preparing for a down year go look at the preseason predictions. Even some of the diehard homers weren’t being very bold. Wish they had a search feature here so I could find the thread. I tried googling it, but it’s not easy. Maybe someone could locate the link, It would be fun looking back. If anyone does find it, don’t bump the thread just post the link.

As most regular readers on this forum know, I have been hard on this front office for what I felt like was a lack of action in the free agent market last year.

I must say they have been really impressive with their in season free agent signings and trades.


Hankins
Peters
Hilton

All have all made impacts with their play as well as mentoring our younger players.

I am impressed with their team first mentality.

Hopefully these player can continue to contribute.

Again, props to the front office on a job well done !


The front office has done a great job, I’d like to give an honorable mention to our team veterans and leaders. They have set the tone for the new drafted players and free agent pickups. We got a great group here, I know they make some bone headed mistakes but I see effort in every action regardless of the outcome.
