Offseason/Draft Thoughts

[baltcowboy]

If I had to guess what happens we’ll sign a few aged FA vets to short term deals that were good 5 years ago, draft Jeanty and then our usual 2nd round head scratcher.

It’s actually fairly easy to make roster moves to free up a lot of money to be active in FA and be relevant very quickly with a good draft…but I have 0 confidence we do that.

Jerry is going to make a move either to get the most attention or to prove he is a great GM. This offseason has disaster written all over it. We haven’t even started our coaching search that will tell us all we need to know about what we will do in free agency and in the draft.

B/C outside of Lamb we have zero offseason weapons…

Or perhaps we're not using our talent better. I'm sure McVay or Ben Johnson would have no issue getting targets to Tolbert, Turpin, and Flournoy. The last game, Turpin took a slant all the way to the endzone. Usually when they put him in it's to run a jet sweep or WR screen. I think lack of pre-snap motion and creativity is more of any issue.

I’m sure they’d help…but our talent in comparison to actual contenders is laughable on the offensive side of the ball.

The Cowboys just have to many holes. You guys don’t seem to understand how good Detroit, Philadelphia, and Green Bay are. All three of those teams are 30 points better than a healthy Cowboys team. It’s gonna take luck, multiple draft success, and great moves by the front office to improve this team. Plus we are not even talking about Washington, Atlanta, Arizona, Seattle ect who are all loaded. San Francisco who is a bigger disappointment than us also is a better team. I don’t see much change.

I am scared to death of what the three stooges are going to do with our 1st round pick. At the very least expect a dog and pony show. The extension of Dak killed us in the leverage department. The Cowboys have to protect their investment. As of right now I can’t see them not picking Jeanty with the first pick. He is the best weapon in the draft.

Got to see who they hire and what direction they take before any judgement

I don’t agree with it but I’m guessing Mingo was the offseason pick up in the WR room. Wouldn’t surprise me at all if Lamb, Mingo, Tolbert, Turpin and Flournoy make up the room.

a superior OC should be able to use Turpin and Ferguson and others to take the pressure off of Lamb. IF we can also get a real good 3rd down back that honestly would be a pretty decent receiver core.
