I forgot to ask! Will do

 

[JoeyBoy718]

So do they want anyone other than Wentz?

 

[noshame]

I don't care who they like as their franchise QB they need to move up trade with Tennessee take him and collect the Superbowl rings

 

[HappyOnions]

Thanks for the information. I have to reason to believe that you heard this information, although who really knows what's going on behind the scenes.

 

[JoeKing]

Please refer to the disclaimer I started the post with. Might help you feel better

My reply is the result of me reading your disclaimer. "feel free to... ridicule... doubt the legitimacy of what I'm telling you". I took you at your word.

You're sharp, can't get anything past you!

I spoke to my insider yesterday also. He told me to get the hell out of there.

Just admit you made it up.

Thanks a lot for that.

The D Mac quote kind of scares me big time. I think he was fortunate to make it through the season healthy. He had a good year but I hope we look at a RB this in the draft too.

I was wrong about Hardy and fully admit it. I thought he would really help us down the stretch but he is who he is. I'm fine if we keep him for the right price and fine if we let him go.

If Wentz truly is the guy we're going to have to deal with the Browns. There's no way he's getting but them and I would rather add picks than give picks up.

Who knows - will be a very interesting off season and fun to speculate.

He should pull an Elway and tell the Browns to go pound sand. QB's go to Cleveland to die......we all know this.

let me preface this by saying I'm only sharing this with the board because there are certain members who requested I pass this along. Feel free to believe what I'm telling you, ridicule what I tell you, doubt the legitimacy of what I'm telling you or anything else. Doesn't matter to me as I don't gain squat for this.

The office I work at has a contractor who works on a certain project for our company but is also a member of the Cowboys staff.

So I Spoke to my guy. Asked him why I hadn't seen him in so long and he said his project for our company is about done.
He'll be around every once in awhile to check things out but not nearly as much as before. So that sucks.

Anyway I asked him about the draft, and like before he said he can't go into too much detail, but said we LOVE Wentz. Said we believe he's the real deal and that we've been watching him for some time hoping he wouldn't blow up the way he has. Said he didn't mind sharing this info because it's already out in the media.

Said Jerry really wants Tony to win but understands he's only 1 hit away from us being completely stuck w no QB. So the possibility of us going QB w the first pick is VERY real.

I asked if we'd trade back and he said that's possible if we don't get Wentz. I personally prefer to trade back and asked him what he thought, and he said "it don't matter what I think I'm telling you what THEY want" lol. And said they want Wentz, period. He also said the scouts get paid to know what they're talking about and that they say Wentz can make the throws has the size and ability they want. Said the scouts really like him a lot and he does too. More than Goff and more than Lynch.

I Asked about Hardy and he said it's complicated because Rod knows he's an exceptional talent but his attitude just sucks. He's been telling me this all year. Said reports about him being out of shape aren't really true, he was in shape, just late all of the time and just "did his own thing".

Asked about RB and he says they believe in DMC and expect him to be the guy for another year and draft RB next year.

Asked about 1 tech and he said Hayden needs to be coming off the bench but they aren't focused on a 1 tech specifically. Said they want big athletes that can move. I argued that we should get a huge 1 tech that can get some push and he said "again they want big athletes, period"
Says they are set in their ways and that's it.

Overall he was kinda cranky and I suspect it was because he wanted to go to the senior bowl but they didn't bring him. I wanted to talk to him more but he was on his way to "other projects" so he had to run. Wish I could've got more questions in, but I wanted to pass this along.

I know the Wentz fanatics on the board will probably appreciate this.

Thanks for sharing. It sounds as though Jerry isn't as aloof as I thought he might be.

Yes. We need a QB like yesterday.
Yes. Tony is just one hit away from AARP.

I disagree about RB. We still need a bell cow. DMC would serve nicely as a complimentary back.

 

[Cowboys22]

Liking a player and being willing to take him in the top 5 are two different things. I like Wentz a lot but I don't see any way he is off the board before the Cowboys' pick. I'll be surprised if Dallas is willing to pull the trigger at 4. I think the 8-12 range is where he should go.

 

[egn22]

So do they want anyone other than Wentz?

He didn't go that far into it. I was trying to get him to stick around awhile to talk more but he made it pretty clear that he had to roll.
It's funny because one of my coworkers teases me when this guy comes around.
She says I get all broke back mountain. Lol

 

[Zimmy Lives]

Good stuff, eng22! Nothing enlightening but good stuff nonetheless.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Not getting a running back is a mistake, imo. Just another example of them not valuing a position that is going to end up biting us in the *** next season. Watch.

I don't the team doesn't value the position. but would you should you spend a 4th pick of the draft on it? Minn had the top rusher and they were one and out. McFadden was 4th and he didn't eve start the whole season. Jonathan stewart was 8th and he didn't even get a 1000 yards. neither did Holman from Denver, neither did anyone crack top 10 from Arizona or New England.

you need a QB and good defense and good offensive line. and RB I the easiest position to adjust and produce in the NFL. we still have many more needs that I would rank above RB. like safety, cb, mlb, olb, 2nd WR and future TE.

 

[egn22]

Just admit you made it up.

I thought you read my disclaimer???

 

[DCBoysfan]

Thanks for posting.

 

[Alexander]

Just admit you made it up.

These types of things have been on this board for years. Bet if he had a different username or avatar, you would gobble it down and ask for more.

 

[egn22]

He should pull an Elway and tell the Browns to go pound sand. QB's go to Cleveland to die......we all know this.

That would be awesome! We'd be hated that much more but I wouldn't care

I never said WHEN they should draft a RB. It sounds like the FO thinks we're set with a guy known for being injured all the time. We need a RB in this draft.
