The Cowboys should just tank for the 1 overall pick

And do what with it?

Do you remember who is running this organization?

Do you, for one minute, think we will end up with another Troy Aikman and not another JaMarcus Russel?

I wouldn't take a QB this year. 4 1st rounders could net OL and DL studs.

How many members actually believe the team would end up 0-17 or 1-16, etc., and Jones would draft a quarterback with a prime pick?

It is one thing to believe Jones will do exactly what you want. It is another thing to believe it will come true.

They can 5 overall top picks...still, they'll be average at best.

Who's going to coach them up?

Pathetic organization.

They could either trade down and get a haul for a QB needy team or draft a QB and trade Dak.
We need to go QB shopping this upcoming draft.
There is no other route to glory!
0-17 would be perfect for us just like 1989 when we picked up a guy called Aikman.
Life is a risk and those who are scared can stay in mediocrity!!!!

D is too good, you have 5-6 guaranteed wins no matter who your QB is

Agreed and Dak will come back eventually with an easy schedule at the end. That will kill our chances of a top 5 pick. But if we can get into the top 10, then we will have a shot at a great Olineman. Which to me is the biggest need.

If they are picking that high, then they should trade back in the first round three times to pick up extra picks. Because, right about now, we can use all extra help we can get. Just saying.

This Oline HAS to be fixed. It is the #1 priority. Have to think we hit on Tyler at LT. That is great. Be we need a guard, RT and possibly a center. Lots of work to be done. Also need a big time DE. Cowboys should really move on from tank. He just isnt worth the money.

Offensive line and run stuffing DTs. We've been getting gashed by the run for several years now. IMO Fournette did more to beat us than Brady. But we continue to ignore run stopping DL.

Agreed. My god its both lines. Parsons makes our front 7 look better than it is. The truth is that we have ZERO studs on the Dline. And Lawrence is history soon. It just get more and more hopeless.

I truly believe that if even if we had the 2nd pick and there was a stud QB sitting there, Jerry would pass on him. As not to hurt Dak's feelings. LOL

Jerry and son are far more likely to draft the next Paxton Lynch or Johnny Manziel. Give them the first 5 picks in the draft. I'd bet they'll still screw it up.

It's going to take having the worse record in the NFL to get Bryce Young.
That's the only QB I would want to draft that high.

Knowing how things work, we'd get the number 1 overall pick and then trade it to the Saints for Payton

That a bit extreme. You never waste a season. That said I see a top 10 pick next year based on our lack of talent on Offense pure and simple. That's totally on Jerry and Steven. They baked this rotten *** cake and now they need to eat every stinking bite.

IDK aside from Parsons I didn’t see a lot to be impressed with
The Bucs ram Fournette down their throats and the cowboys were helpless and that with back ups at 3 positions on the line to begin the game
Then they lost their LT and still imposed their will

I think the defense can get better but they have potential for a tank

I feel sorry for Micah he’s basically a 1 man show with some help sprinkled in at times
Dude was being held all night
