Didn't we pick Kyle Wilber in the fourth?

I feel like spending a 4th round pick on a player cut in his 2nd year is a fairly big miss. If it was a 6th or 7th round then whatever business as usual, but 4th round picks usually last longer than this. Too bad.

Thank you,there is no room for soft players in this league.

We always miss on our 4th rounders.

Jimmy cut 2 players that were picked in the 3rd round. He probably never gave them a 2nd thought after they were gone.

Fair enough but it still doesn't excuse the fact that it was a wasted pick. A fourth rounder should usually land you a serviceable back up or something along those lines. I'd rather be hitting on my third and fourth rounders than cutting them.

well... bye

I think it sucks to cut someone who at the spot he was picked was expected to contribute. However, I applaud them for cutting bait, too. Holding on too long waiting for a guy to develop, ala Matt Johnson, can be just as bad.

That said, they could still bring him back via the PS, too. So you never know.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

Webb gone and I would imagine Hamilton as well once his suspension is over. That is two more spots under the 53. I definitely do think there will be waiver wire finds better than either one.

I agree completely, good on them for cutting him instead of carrying dead weight. You're right, they're probably one secondary injury away from bringing him back

Fourth rounders bust (as in, contribute little to no value to an NFL franchise) over 50% of the time. People vastly overestimate the hit rate of draft picks.

That said, we really are atrocious at picking in that round.

 

[jazzcat22]

For all the 4th round woe is the team experts...Tony Mandrich was a 1st round pick and 2nd overall, for the Packers behind Troy Aikman.
And then there were those who thought Dallas should have picked Mandrich over Aikman back then....

 

[CF74]

Meh, bring down the axe...

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

Uhmmm....there seems to be a trend here in Dallas....can those last 20 years?

This sucks being a Fan....you route hope for the best, it's another FAIL.

 

[Plankton]

Physically small player who plays small. I'm not sure that there is a receiver out there who can't overpower him, Cole Beasley included. I thought that he had a chance to be a solid nickel corner when selected, but I was wrong, I guess.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

I think the surprise with Webb was how soft he played pass defense. From that first exhibition game last season, the guy just sorta played 3 yards off the receiver as I screamed at the TV– "What the hell is that?"

 

[TwoCentPlain]

I thought he had the team made based on his coverage 'skills.' We needed someone who could at least cover if he wasn't going to tackle.

I wonder if he gets picked up. I think the Jets or Ravens might take a look. They are really beat up at CB.

Are we calling him a hit now? He hasn't even secured a starting job yet.
