So we're just supposed to forget the whole Mingo for a 4th rounder?

[KJJ]

Oh boy. Mercy.

So you’re saying he was worth a 4th round pick?

 

[Rockport]

why? he has 0 TDs in three years. was 6th on his team among WRs and 10th in recieving. he couldn't even get an accidental TD in 51 games in NFL.
it was a bad trade. his production past two years is worse than UDFAs we have on this team. just see Turpin.

its not too early. it was a bad trade the minute it happened. quick trying to pump sunshine up everyone's arse...I get it. you are loyal. everything is awsome, all the time. but a dose of reality once in a while is a good thing

You see a bad trade whenever the Cowboys make a trade. You see a bad acquisition whenever the Cowboys acquire someone. You see a bad coach whenever the Cowboys hire a new one. You see a bad draft choice whenever the Cowboys make one. See the pattern? Be better.

We won't know until he is given a chance.

A lot of that going around. The last 30 years has jaded so many to the point that every single thing the Cowboys do sucks.

Fortunately, there are a lot of really good, intelligent and fair fans here. Which ironically seems to fuel their rage even more.

He’ll have to earn his chance in training camp. He already has two receivers ahead of him and that won’t be changing.

I don't. mingo was a bad trade. lance was a bad trade. we didn't need the pickens trade because it doesn't get us closer to the championship we seek. trades for the sake of trading never end up well.

and tell me which coach was a good coach in the past 7 coaches? I always liked the Parcells hire, because he changed the culture and tried to teach jerry, which lasted for about 2 years before jerry thought he knows what he is doing? did you like the garrett hire? or the MM hire? and now another coach, with no experience, who had been passed up over and over to be a headcoach.

the challenge is he hires weak personalities because Jerry wants to have control. he won't hire a parcells type and some great coaches this off season, didn't even consider Dallas as an option. and plus Jerry pays mid level to his coaches, which most good/great coaches won't take to come to dallas, be meddled with all the time and end up with nothing. why? because they care about winning.

you tend to love every move jerry makes, every coach and pump sunshine where sun don't shine. all the time.

see a pattern?

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

No. Not even close.

hmmmm, going into his 3rd year. he is nothing but a back up. and his stats lag behind fasano. unless he has a great year, he is no better than fasano

Say what!?

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Say what!?

is this team going to win superbowl this year? are they contenders? how do they stack against rest of NFC and top teams in AFC?

remember, this is a one year rental..... if we don't win superbowl or worse yet, don't make playoffs and Pickens is gone. it was a bad trade.

but go ahead with your bad self. hang a banner, put the Trade Trophy on the mantle and shine it up. celeberate. throw a party.

 

[speedkilz88]

He wasn’t worth a 4th round pick. In 8 games all he had was 5 catches for 46 yards. We saw why Carolina got rid of him.

I saw Cooper Rush throw him a lot of uncatchable balls and not see him when he was open other times.

We’ll see how he fairs this summer. He’ll be battling for the 3rd WR spot.

 

[gimmesix]

I mean we all did a double blink last year when that trade was announced. It’s comical at this point. Can someone please post the Bevis and Butthead pic.

Frankly, I like the fact that we're not just banking on him. Now that we have Pickens, if Mingo can contribute as one of our top three, it's still a good trade. I mean, the last receiver we took in the fourth round was Ryan Switzer. Before that, it was Isaiah Stanback and Skyler Green. That takes us back to 2000, so as we can see, the bar is not set too high for him.

Among the three of them, those picks had 15 catches for us. Mingo had 5 last year, so right now, he fits right in.

 

[kumizi]

Lets see what he does with a training camp under his belt, Dak healthy, and less pressure to perform.

But for the record, I agree that was a dumb trade.

 

[charron]

Mingo wasn't any good in Carolina and he showed the same poor play in Dallas. But maybe with a full camp under his belt he can elevate his game and be useful this year.

 

[big dog cowboy]

He’ll have to earn his chance in training camp.

I hope so. Now that we have a new HC, I'm optimistic a couple of others get a chance also.

 

[big dog cowboy]

we didn't need the pickens trade because it doesn't get us closer to the championship we seek.

Trading for a WR (which everyone said we needed) and getting a WR1 doesn't get us closer to a championship?

 

[big dog cowboy]

hmmmm, going into his 3rd year. he is nothing but a back up.

Huh??? He started several games last year. He looked good when given a chance too! The consensus on him is the arrow is pointing up.

 

[KJJ]

I hope so. Now that we have a new HC, I'm optimistic a couple of others get a chance also.

The new HC is going to do the same thing our last HC did and put the players that give us the best chance to win on the field. Schotty won’t be the HC long if we don’t win. Players are given a chance to compete for jobs in training camp.

Why of course we should forget it. Many on here give Jerry a free pass on the last 30 years. Forget Dak’s last 10 years…he’s the next Troy Aikman.
