Who do you think he beats out then if your giving up draft capital?
In this hypothetical, the Cowboys are giving up about 8 points of draft capital to get the 24 tear-old Burks, a former 1st round pick, to compete against Jalen Tolbert for the 3rd WR spot. He either wins or Tolbert steps up, and if they both play well, you have a very sold WR 1 through 4.

Meanwhile, "GM Jerry" gave up 76 points of draft capital for two players who did not play a moment of NFL playing time in 2024 and are not looking too promising of playing in 2025 either.

While interesting and not sure which players you mean, it's irrelevant to this conversation.

Especially since the players in that scenario are not WRs.

Interesting way to look at it though.

I don’t typically listen to that Broaddus dude but I happened to during the 2023 draft.

The staff couldn’t gush enough over Scott according to him. They claim to have known what they had in Brand, and think even more of Scott. The guy cost two picks, not one. Ok.

Let’s see what happens…..but if this season is supposed to be some sort of throwaway to get the cap in order, they better absolutely find out about the entire bottom of the roster while they are at it.

Then they all get a brand new staff for next season. Sounds like a championship course to me!

There’s no real plan here other than growing the brand, and that’s what pisses me off more than anything.
