Not really because a pass rush makes a CB look better and we have a shut down corner in TNew.

Our CBs looked a lot better the first half of the season when Ellis wasn't injured. And Ellis was having a pro bowl type year. Taking him out killed our defense. Not bad secondary coverage. When the QB gets all day to throw you can have the best DBs ever out there and they will get ripped.


2006 Pass Defense..

#23 Commanders 218.2 YPG
#24 Dallas 219.1 YPG


What did the Commanders do today?

They just made their secondary even better.

Gotta give the Jets credit. They had the balls to execute on draft day.

Can't say the same for Dallas.

What are you talking about? The Cowboys got the player they wanted and now have two first round picks next year. What'd you want, Dwayne Jarrett? I'd rather have the two #1's in next year's draft.

Having a strong pass rush fixes many problems within our offense....

If gives less time for teams to expose James, Ayodele, and Williams... And thus teams have to run... and with Williams allowed to be near the line (thanks to hamlin), its going to be hard to run on James, Ayodele, and Williams.

The thread poster is notorious for popping into threads and randomly pointing out we MUST and WILL take a CB in the first, because Henry is the worst CB in the league (according to him). And he constantly posts an annoying .gif where Keith Davis gets burned and he blames it on Henry.


You mean this play?

Half the touchdowns we gave up in the last 5 games were to running backs and tight ends...

He wanted a Corner ....... its his gimmick.

He will show a still frame in a minute and pretend that proves something.

I bet if you look at the rankings the first 8 or 9 games when Ellis was healthy the pass yards weren't evenclose to the 219 it ended up being. And teams efficiency ratings were probably the worst in the NFL the first however many games with Ellis. With Ellis out of there teams had all day to throw and could expose any weaknesses a defense.

Unless this team gets help in the secondary, we will be seeing a lot more of this.

Trust me. :rolleyes:

Signing Hamlin to a 1 year deal is not "fixing" anything.

Hamlin probably doesn't even start over Watkins.

Which would mean that Watkins finally got it ...... which would help our secondary.

pass defense doesn't only depend on the CB's and safeties. We need a pass rush. Last I checked, we drafted someone to generate that pass rush, so quit whining.

If you had any doubts about what a Cowboys football would like with Wade and Jerry running things...

This looks to be one of the worst drafts we've had in a while.

What a disappointment this has been.
Mr. Negative with another negative thread. What a surprise.

This is my first draft with Jerry — and he’s a wheeler-dealer!” new coach Wade Phillips said.

Jones spent the last four drafts getting Parcells’ input into every pick. With Jones squarely running the show for the first time since 2002, the Cowboys’ draft room was interesting from the start.
---------------

This is the fear many of us had. With Bill gone, Jerry just couldn't help it.

Instead of drafting the players we need, he decided to trade draft picks.

The result

- Another OLB [we already have Ware and Carp and Ellis]
- Another OT, who won't start

- No help for the secondary, where a 24th Ranked Pass defense only gets worse.
