Twitter: Super Bowl Teams Who Continually Draft OL In The 1st Round.

I’m with you. I don’t dislike the pick…I’m always whining about the trenches…but it’s probably the wrong trench in this case.

Most teams have one high pick, another mid rounder and the rest late/UDFA types as starters on the OL.

OL early is a safe bet. Probably the safest, but it’s going to leave them short elsewhere.

I didn’t do my usual research on this draft because Jerry has stolen the joy from me, but I was told around here there was no DT worth taking unless Graham slid….and THREE of them went just after we picked.

Tell me they wouldn’t have been better off with drafting a guy like Harmon, signing Poona to 3/27 and keeping a guy like Golston at 3/19 and probably and extra mid rounder for dealing down for Harmon, and some cap room for another player….as opposed to JUST Osa at 4/80.

They have NO idea what they are doing.
Great post man.
 
We are not mad,
There Are some people on The forum that are perpetually and obsessively mad and negative about everything.
If we missed out on Megatron Dan Marino or OJ Simpson I'd be like yeah we spit the bit but there was nobody there like that that we didn't take
Yep, this draft feels incredibly devoid of top end talent, and it does feel as if we have a decent shot at having got what’s likely to end up as one of the few decent players at the front end of it.

If today they fix what I was moaning over all along….I’ve got no gripe….hint: it ain’t the skill positions.
 
Nor have I. I’m not sure what your point is. Did Jerry say this? If so, that’s further evidence that he is in fact, dumb. It does not, however, change the fact that two things can still be true.
He could have the same career as Zach Martin and the team could have the same results.

Nothing.

This is a wasted pick on a non impact position.

I'm glad you liked it though. Enjoy the 0 wins that it will contribute to next season.

Your posts have become a schtick. It’s one thing to have a point, it’s quite another to make a fool of yourself. Some people know the difference…carry on…

You would have liked any player that the Cowboys picked.

Some fans are like you and like everything with a star on it.

Some fans are like me and don't buy everything they try to sell.

^ This post is proof that this guy has nothing but an agenda… I’m an Eagles fan… I would’ve preferred the Cowboys picked, you know, a bad player.
 
Jerry said Thanks for the support, and don't forget to buy your idols' gear. Little Jerry's great-grandson needs a new car. :D
Jerry and I don't care if we win; we just enjoy watching you guys dream of what will never happen. Love you, Jer. Can we get Garrett back?
 
It was a joke. phildadon86 said that by time we rebuild this team Lamb's contact will be up and I was joking and meant Dak's next contract. Hopefully in reality we have a new QB in 2028.
I assume you meant 2029, because Dak will play in 2028 under his current contract. Unless some catastrophic financial event happens in the NFL by then, his $60MM/yr will look like peanuts.

Hopefully we've gotten to the NFCCG by 2028 and all the nonsensical talk about Dak will stop, but it won't, not even with a SB win.

I think he's a Top 5 QB, but let's say he isn't and is a Top 10-12 instead. QBs in that tier are incredibly difficult to replace, hence the big contracts these guys get. It makes him one of the 12 best QBs on the planet playing an incredibly difficult position, both physically and mentally.

The OL help is a big deal for Dak (and the run game). Extrapolated out over the entire season, he was in the Top 10 of most sacked QBs last year and in 2023. Historically, he doesn't take a lot of sacks. Less time to throw the ball = more incompletions and less accurate passes, not to mention an array of receivers that nobody is writing home about other than #88.

I know the anti-Dak crowd here - including you apparently - want to lay every loss on Dak Prescott. That's cool. When people espouse that opinion, it lets everyone else know where their knowledge of football lies.

Lol again it was a joke and my whole reply had nothing to do with Dak except the joke which was about having to sign him later to a much higher contract. QB contracts right now are ridiculous and will be even more ridiculous in yes 2029.
 




AND a 1st round QB.

I see people talk about how good this FO has been with scouting and evaluating offensive lineman...but are they really? If you have to continuously pick them in the first round, to me that shows me that they have to mask their inability to properly evaluate them in later rounds.

I don't even hate the Booker pick, honestly, I love this kid, and if they had a promising young QB getting ready to take the reigns I would be celebrating it. But we all know what having a top line and the best running game, combined with this QB has gotten us, an anxiety plagued panic spiral in the playoffs.
 
T
Get a RB tonight. Maybe WR2. Then focus on defense rest of the draft.

Of course if they build a great OL, threats at RB and WR. Still need that great TE. I was hoping they would have drafted Warren.

However, still a few years away. As they need to access the main issue yet. But will they.
here is not any rb1’s or wr2’s left

They go OLine because it's safe.

Guard is the safest pick you can make on the OLine.

You won't know the difference if a guard plays decent or amazing. You only notice them when they are really, really bad.

A guard will not turn your 7 win team into an 8 win team.

It was a bad pick for a team in need of weapons.
