REGRET: Another Cowboys Draft Mistake??

[cobra]

I'm just wondering what you guys think. I think we messed up when we took Mark Higgs in the 8th round in 1988 since we got Emmitt in 1990. Because we took Mark Higgs, we passed on the player I wanted them to take: J.J. Birden WR Oregon. Plus, we could have traded down 10 spots and still got Birden and picked up a 12th round pick which could have been a player like Brian Kinchen TE/C Louisana State.

Don't you think the franchise would be better off if we wouldn't have blown that pick? I have a feeling we are going to regret it.

I'll refrain from commenting unless you tell me this isn't a joke.

But we will rue the day we made that mistake.

Lol, I like it.

At least to the credit of posters here, they actually claim who they preferred we took over Carpenter, unlike when posters used to claim we made a mistake but when asked who we shoudl have taken, they responded, a LB, a WR, a DT, but no specifics.

You're gonna get me fired. I laughed out loud at my desk when I read this. But this really does illustrate how ridiculous it is to lament draft picks. What's done is done, and when you look at what the Cowboys have done, it's pretty good.

We still rue the day that we made that mistake

Merriman would've eaten Emmitt AND Higgs alive. He's got a "mean streak." and a nickname.

And of course, there is Trent Cole to consider.

Not sure but I think when you order one you get a free red stapler.
