We all know this team is just Jerry's play toy. He's going to play with it the way he wants, and it doesn't matter if it makes football sense or not.

He's going to keep gambling and hoping on injured players, hiring coordinators before his head coach, being cheap in free agency, and refusing to give up on his pet players and favorite hires. As long as he leads the Forbes list and gets his mug on TV, he's not going to change. And there's nothing we can do about it.

It’s not clear to me what the long term strategy or plan this front office is following to improve this roster. So I thought I would ask the fan base.

I occasionally hear the “soft rebuild” term thrown around, which can mean different things to different people. Others may say we are in a complete 1989 style rebuild where the roster will need to be harshly churned. While to some this front office either doesn’t have a discernible plan outside of marketing their team or is just winging it.

What say you? What’s the plan around here?

There is no plan. The Jones boys will continue to follow their own Jones template of football management.
  1. Free agency will be minimal to ensure we don’t spend like last years Super Bowl champion.
  2. Any large contracts will be negotiated through the press rather than through the players agent and will occur during September to ensure we overpay players.
  3. Playing time for players will be based on draft position and contract size. The larger the contract, the more playing time a player will get. This greatly reduces over performing players chances of getting on the field.
  4. The Jones boys will continue to overspend on offense and try to field a defense with the crumbs left over from the offensive salary cap hit.
  5. Jerry will continue to make contract decisions based on his personal relationships with players. If you’re a Zeke Elliot, then you will be overpaid regardless of how much you have left in the tank.
  6. Jerry will sign a new contract early with a “Miles Austin” type player who shows flashes of talent but requires more time to determine if they are truly deserving of a fatter contract.
  7. We will continue to hear stupid things like “Super Bowl”, “We are one player away”, “We like our guys”, and “Secret sauce”.
  8. Jerry must feel comfortable with all coaching hires, winning be damned.
 
There are valuable fringe players that Dallas needs to decide how to best utilize. For example players like Hoffman and Bass are valuable backups. They are borderline starters.

If a true SB contender called asking what Dallas might accept for one of those guys would you flip them for a pick or not? Keep in mind that I think both of these guys are free agents after this season.

If you think you are a win now team, you probably want to keep them for depth reasons. But if you are not (and I don’t think we are) then you could possibly trade one or both of those guys for a 4th round pick and possibly a pick swap near the end of the draft. (6th for a 7th).

This team needs a clear cut vision about where it is headed and how it wants to best utilize its resources.

No what's predictable is what the answers were going to be when you added they had no plan that they're clueless the front office has no plan would be what most people in here were going to pick This was not a shock and probably unnecessary..

Seriously do you not have the temperature of this place I do you knew what the answers were going to be...
 
This isn’t a franchise that likes to rebuild imo

This year theyll Be in the mix and probably not get yanked from
Any snf games



I think their current wish is to nurse these draft picks and spread them out .
 
Do I look like a guy with a plan?

The problem is Jethro and our organization have a completely different mindset than some fans who justified or translated the Micah trade as a signal we were in a rebuild mode.

There is no rebuild in place. Jethro wants to win now with Dak. Otherwise wasting his final years on current contract.
 
54% in agreement. Not only is this a ringing indictment, it's downright depressing because we know we're right and the others are delusional if they think otherwise
 
I think the plan is to do a soft rebuild, or really a hard rebuild of the defense while they don’t touch the offense over the next two years. In theory it’s a decent plan but there is a lot of pressure to hit on the upcoming defensive draft picks, something they have not shown themselves particularly capable of recently.
 
There is no rebuild if you have 2 of the highest paid players at their position. You have to try and win in the next two years to justify these signings.

I have no faith in this FO that there is a plan, they have always been reactive not proactive.
 
Placing a bunch of options on a wall, putting on a blindfold, and then throwing darts at that wall would at least be some type of "plan" and would likely yield better results than Jerry over 30 years. Math spergs have already ran the numbers that there is only a 1.8% chance than any person on Earth would do as poorly as Jerry has.
