It was probably the worst off season in years, if we're doing a rebuild of some sort just make it known and say it! A lot of us don't see much hope for this season, we can look back at the GB game, then more importantly how we went about the off season not making significant moves to ensure GB doesn't happen again.
We will see how things go in camp then the PS and the season more importantly, just please don't forget
Not maintaining the rights to Igbinoghene Island is really the death knell for the 2024 season. Seriously though, I think you’re being just a bit too cynical.
Just look forward to having LB’s playing the position this year. Be happy that there is a renewed enthusiasm about rebuilding the offensive line. I believe the secondary is getting more athletic/dynamic and we can look forward to seeing Diggs opposite Bland this year – that’s at least moderately exciting. Zimmer loves safeties, so we’ll see what he’s got up his sleeve with that position group. Promising draft class this year and we’ll see if Mazi’s true to his word and can land between serviceable and good (I’d take that). Dak will still be putting up big numbers with Lamb, and can Ferguson continue his ascension toward all pro status? Granted, there are plenty of questions, but I like the odds of some of the youngin's making positive contributions.
Granddad told you it was time to
PAY THE BILL, and should we really fret over losing a C that would have been the runaway weak link if it wasn’t for Steele playing in recovery mode, 2 rotational (ok, they were good, but still…rotational) DE’s, Hankins, who did not grade out well and only shined due to his comparison to Mazi, and what does a one year older Tyron look like this year?
To play your side of the fence, the head scratcher to me was the missed opportunities at the RB position. I thought with 2 3rd rd picks the Cowboys should have walked away with either Lloyd or Wright. Or, perhaps prioritizing the position slightly higher than obtaining the services of Royce Freeman. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a couple players added in the coming weeks as depth this year may be a bigger concern than in ’23.
To the OP, if granddad told you the vault was sealed shut this year, would you be surprised if your team made the playoffs (WC this year), and lost in the first round but was clearly more competitive than in the Great GB Debacle of 2023? It’s possible this happens, and I get it, it’s not much of a consolation, but the fact is that how this organization operates and with the mishandling of $$$’s, a light reset (at min.) is in order, but we’re certainly
NOT going to be told that is what’s happening from Jed or Jethro.
