Dumping Dak would provide confirmation that Jerry is unfortunately somewhere between Stage 4 & Stage 6 of Dementia.
Every team in the league is looking for “that Dude” and there are very few of them. This is clearly debatable, but from my vantage point the top untouchable tier is Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, and I’ll take a leap of faith and add Herbert. Sorry, TB12 and A-Aron, but I’m guilty of not coveting QB’s that can be covered (o.k., A-Aron is approx. 11 mos. away) by The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). That leads you to Lamar Jackson. Do you really want to swap (you’re not getting him anyway) for a guy whose playoff record is 1-3, while passing for a meager 225 yds/game, and doing so while obviously struggling with uniform identification proven by his tossing 5 picks compared to only 3 TD’s. Sorry LJ, I know you’re a dynamic runner, but I like my QB’s to be somewhat consistent passers. Tua – hell no, Cousins – no, “I don’t like that”.
The list is short, and this team doesn’t draft high enough to grab a guy that may be a long-term solution. And no, we shouldn’t mortgage the farm to move up to nab a potential “that Dude”.
I’m extremely comfortable riding with Dak. I suggest JJ & company get their collective heads out of their behinds and fill in the missing pieces.
Go Cowboys!
