They wanted too much....he is no young Eric berry...and even he didn't deserve that many picksWe were willing to part with at least a first round pick for him.
Odds are at some point NY is going to trade him, and we will likely be interested again.
We could of had a good safety at #60 this year.
That is true but at this point, it's little more than revisionist thinking. We also needed a DT but the team fumbled that attempt, as well. At some point in time, they may actually secure a functional safety. I'm holding out hope that Donovan Wilson is the player to make this occur. Jerry and the rest of his clan are like a mom and pop general store trying to compete with Walmart. They sorely need the patience of Job from their fans and then some!
Disagree. If anything, it's revisionist history to say everyone thought we were going DT. Pretty much everyone thought we were going safety, and the Cowboys basically had their pick.

Well. They tried!And at least they tried to improve
truth be told, it's really that DT role that has me worried that it will eventually be our doomed downfall in the playoffs again,
it's a number of very good backs that will be in the playoffs such as Kamara, Aaron Jones, Cook, Coleman/Breida, if the Panthers sneak in McCaffrey, that could be showing us the door
outta the playoffs On- the- Road again.
Good Lord -- the Jets weren't looking for a bargaining partner nearly as much as they were a sucker!

How are those 2 second picks we had last year looking? It wasn't too much for a 24 year old all-pro safety.
I'll confess, I wanted him myself and was upset when we picked Hill instead. Our all-knowing draft gurus saw it differently, though.
The dc.com and the fan guys were talking a couple weeks prior that they were hearing that the Cowboys were liking Hill in the 2nd round. That's not revisonist history, that's you not paying attention.
I look at it this like .........in August, would you have traded Tristy, McGovern, and Taco for Adams?
So like 6 people? Just because they said the Cowboys were liking Trysten Hill doesn't mean people thought it was the right pick. The same people that didn't like it then don't like it now (not revisionist history) .
Adams is the new Earl Thomas lol
Trysten and Taco, yesss! As far as McGovern, I'll need to see what he has to offer next year to ponder that decision a bit further!
