QB’s don’t grow on trees. No matter what you think of Dak, he‘s not the reason for not having much playoff success. He was 2nd in NFL MVP race for a reason. He’s that good. Once he’s gone, it could possibly be years before they break .500. This is no Chicago Bears defense in the making not with massive holes at DT and LB. Mahomes and Brady are generational type players. Picking a QB in the draft is a 50/50 crap shoot AT BEST. So many 1st round busts at that position. Casual fans don’t understand that and want Dak gone NOW. But ask them who’s going to be the QB? They think anyone they draft will be the answer right away. Not likely to happen.

I hope Dak gets extended because I know he gives the team the best chance of winning the Super Bowl. I just hope it’s a team friendly extension. Fix the running game and get a defense that can stop the run and he can easily lead this team to the Super Bowl.

The problem is that the same faulty architects are responsible for building the roster.


As much as the overall roster talent has approved, especially since McClay had more say, the Jones have been awful at finding QBs. The three good ones they have had were all luck.

Aikman - purchased the team with the #1 overall pick and Aikman was the obvious #1 overall choice.

Romo - UDFA who would have been cut in 2004 had Quincy Carter not been released for a failed drug test.

Prescott (which half of you hate anyway) - Was a 4th round pick. The Cowboys tried and failed to get Paxton Lynch and Connor Cook in this draft. Prescott only got to play after injuries to Romo and Kellen Moore, as well as Nick Foles choosing to be a back-up in Kansas City over taking the starting job in Dallas.


So, the guys picking the next QB are the same guys who CHOSE the likes of Quincy Carter, Chad Hutchinson, Drew Henson, and tried (and failed) to spend draft capital on Paxton Lynch and Connor Cook.

I doubt it. I think there is a few years of bad football ahead of us. top 5, top 10 picks. similar to campo years. churning coaches that's up coming in the next few years. but not 10-15 years. Jerry will be dead before then so things will change a bit.

Jones is bad at finding QBs, DL men, LBs (except lucked into parsons), Safties. areas we have lacked for years. they are good at finding OL men, CBs, TEs and RBs.

It’s hard for any team to pick a franchise QB. Just look at the futility in Cleveland and so many other NFL franchises.

The Texans literally were the laughing stock of the entire nfl 2 years ago. They already passed the Dallas Cowboys by drafting CJ Stroud

How many years before Stroud were they the laughing stock of the entire NFL? They finally lucked out.

Give this team a top 3 draft pick and I bet you they nail the qb draft pick.

Well at least we won't have to worry about having a QB who is insanely overpaid............

Unless they get extremely lucky it’ll be at least 10 years.
