There was no reason to draft Tyron’s replacement before this year

In the 2nd round...bro. Many times in recent years. Check this out ...

Wasted 2nd round picks multiple years with picks like CB Kelvin Joseph (2021), DT Trysten Hill (2019), OL Connor Williams (2018), CB Chidobe Awuzie (2017), LB Jaylon Smith (2016) and DE Randy Gregory (2015).

Cowboys definitely should have used a 2nd round pick at least once or twice to draft another O-Tackle or two since 2015.

Your Offense goes according to how your Oline goes.
Were there OL available in the 2nd round who wouldn't have been a huge reach?

Says not enough cap. Collins money didn't come till June 1, way after free agency period. You forget they were trying to keep Randy too.

Im really not interested in explaining it to you. Im fine if you dont get it.

Didnt have to draft his replacement, they could have tried in free agency or a trade..........it just seems there was no urgency or consideration to even look, it seems their thinking was "Oh well having Tyron 75% of the time is better than having a lesser player 100% of the time".........

You dont have to take years to rebuild an Oline. You can do it in one or two offseasons if you are devoted to it. Plenty good guards and tackles in FA this year.

Huge mistake not getting at least one more. Didnt have to draft the rapper in the 2nd round last year either. Lamb pick could have gone OL as well.
We will, calm down Roy.
Guarantee you that we will be bringing in some OL help after the real cuts begin to happen.

He already said he wasnt doing that. Said it today. And we dont need "help" we need a legitimate starting tackle or guard. Those guys are available right now and he is doing nothing.

This weird narrative that’s going around media and fans is the Cowboys should’ve addressed tackle before now. First off the narrative is a lie. They have addressed tackle in the middle of the draft. Now if the argument is they should’ve addressed it in the first round? The only time it made sense was Slater over Parsons and that would’ve set this team back years.


So when was this suppose to happen? When we drafted Lamb? Diggs? When?
Address it in FA. We could/should have found a suitable backup for Tyron in FA knowing he hasn't played a full season in several years. This franchise very stubbornly ignores FA. FA is not meant to build a roster but to fill holes. We didn't fill a hole in OT and now we're going to pay for it.

You of all peeps actually havent learned by now that Jerry talk is always BS?
Really Roy?
When I hear Jerry say what ever he says I believe in the exact opposite.

Thats what Jerry does, follow the opposite of what he says and usually you will find the real truth.

Yah, not buying that. The guy is a complete moron. What he usually does is do the opposite of what he should.

They know Smith misses games like people or should I say, some people change underwear. Each year he does, use to be like when the LB would miss games (name escapes me) everything goes hey wire and crazy.

Seriously? You weren’t jumping out of your shoes when you realized that maybe the most talented WR in that whole draft had just fallen into the Cowboys’ lap? … Okay. I choose to believe you. But please let me tell you - I was both shocked and happy at their luck.

NO, it was fine. I just knew it would lead to the cutting of Cooper eventually. But none of these skill position players matter if the line cant block.
