Talent Evaluation

Actually they do the projections are there they're probably cutting Terrance steel moving on from Martin and tank but yes the projections are right in that area I don't know what you've been watching but most of them said we're gonna have 80 to 100 million in cap space now that doesn't mean five years from now we come pay the piper on some of these players we won't but yes he's right that is the number people are throwing around the projections is we will have that much cap space how we use it I don't know but don't argue with people who've been actually watching and listening and they say it could be in that range yes don't have to restructure a bunch of people for that they already did that that's what they've been doing this year have you not paid attention when they resigned lamb and Prescott they also restructured a few players and this is where we're at.. That's why people say don't worry we're gonna be picking in the 10 to 15 range in the draft and we got a lot of money left and with all the injuries people forget this team did not fall off a Cliff overnight from A12 win team we're getting a lot of our stars back and main reason we're bad this year besides bad luck is a lot of injuries those players are coming back they're already starting to play a little better now as they come back...

I mean right now they have $54,000,000 in cap space next year without doing anything then you have to add in whatever the cap goes up and then anybody we either restructure or June 1st cuts that kind of thing that's why people projecting it could be 80 to 100 million depends on how the Cowboys wanna do it but that's way beyond plenty for Parsons and everyone else.... But again we all know it will they spend it that's the problem where will they spend it?

The cap is also going to rise and we don’t know by how much. The Dak contract is not going to be as bad as fans think. We just need to let the Joneses know if you pull that offseason crap again we will not support the Dallas Cowboys. Hopefully the fans who pay for those season tickets at the Star will wait until the Cowboys do something in the offseason before they renew those luxury boxes. It starts with the next coaching hire.

nfl.com has him listed.

Athleticism Score *est​

90
2023 Combine DT Rank: 3rd

Strengths​

• Possesses rare combination of size and athleticism.
• Bendy and stout in his lower half.
• Power to punch and lift blocker under his pads.
• Plays with lively feet and short-area quickness.
• Able to slide, swim and seize the gap.
• Yanks and pulls guards off-balance from any direction.
• Foot quickness to be part of a twisting rush unit.

Call it whatever you want he hasn't shown much of his so called strengths but has showed all of the weaknesses they list consistently in his couple of years here.

From the source I trust: "Poor lateral mover who can't create angles."

No idea why it's so opposite. What are his weaknesses from that source?

That's the thing. If we're drafting in the mid 20s, I'd stay away from DT. A late round DT is no more likely to hit than a 2nd or 3rd round pick. Pick a position more likely to hit right away.

And then lose in the playoffs because we're weak up front.

And then lose in the playoffs because we're weak up front.

The problem we have, or had, is we were winning a lot of games and still weak up front. You can't build the DL through the draft unless you suck, or have high picks. They needed to get a solid, or very good interior linemen in FA or through trade.
