Rod is a bad coach and bad at picking talent

Aren't the real culprits the ownership and management of this team that hired Marinelli, and continue to solicit and follow his player draft recommendations.

Haven't the vast majority of us fans known for years that the game passed him by years ago, and he is a horrible liability to the team.

Juan Thornhill runs 4.42 ( same as Amari) with a 44 inches vertical and was there when we picked hill. Not only is rod a bad dc, he’s bad at picking talent. He needs to just coach the d- line.
:facepalm:

Ugh.

The Cowboys don't value safeties. We all know that.

There was a thread bout this practically every day after the draft all summer long.

Marinelli was brought here to try to recapture what he did with the Bucs in the early 2000’s. He was working with a lot of great talent in Tampa. Time to move on.

Here we go again, everyone needs to get over this. Why rehash it over and over like every other pick.

Wish we had an ignore thread button.
Because the GD ignoramus morons making the picks keep taking the wrong guys. Ryan Ramczyk should be our RT and Thornhill should be one of our starting safeties. Trysten Hill should be sucking for someone else.

about Rod M....ahh...and water IS wet. Of course he sucks at picking talent. He never did draft well..he was just a D coord and was the beneficiary of Gruden and a team already loaded with talent in in Tampa.

well ok, but don't let it ruin your life.

And we have a RT. And he has been playing well, it would have been a wasted pick.
Get over it.

Nope - he should be our RT and Collins should’ve never moved from LG. Once you take the wrong guy you have to make bad subsequent picks to try to cover it up. See Williams, Connor.

His top quality in a player is effort. Think about that

Without a doubt Rod is a terrible evaluator of guys coming out of schools however he’s been a decent DL coach here.

That is probably why they picked McGovern.

Josh Jones 6-1, 220, 4.41 forty

Jeff Heath 6-1, 209, 4.48 forty

Measurables don't prove anything.

Do you think the Cowboys did not look at Thornhill's measurables...
Not sure what these morons look at to tell you the truth. Thornhill was the obvious pick but maybe he balked at signing Rod’s hustle pact?

He’s probably the best d- line coach in the league. Let him do that.

I have seen this statement posted about Rod Marinelli several times. What exactly is this based on? Do you really think this defensive line is good?

The reason Thornhill keeps getting brought up so much is he was a consensus pick of damn near everyone that follows the draft. He just made so much sense as our first pick and when he fell to us and they took another project it killed us all just like back when we passed on Steven Jackson
