We picked Escobar at 47, Pitt grabbed Bell at 48

dat hindsight 20/20...

That's like saying we should have drafted Jamaal Charles instead of Felix Jones. A little late now.

 

[egn22]

Why would we have drafted Bell with Murray already on the team?

Why would we use a 2nd rd pick on a TE when we needed help on defense?

 

[RS12]

Let us know when Escobar can throw throw the ball to himself. Just sayin.

Right... I know it's late, but bell looked like a stud coming out.
And for the record this is simply discussion. It's interesting that we picked Escobar literally right before Bell.

Why would we use a 2nd rd pick on a TE when we needed help on defense?

Exactly. Someone like Johnathan Hankins would be good right now for us. He's had a breakout season. Hopefully Jerry quits wasting our upper round picks on useless TEs. I always hated the Esobar pick. It made no sense then and it really makes no sense now.

Why would we use a 2nd rd pick on a TE when we needed help on defense?

Because of the offense we were planning on running. Now answer my question.

We also could've taken Eddie Lacy instead of Escobar as well. That's who I was hoping they would pick at the time. What a horrible pick Escobar was...

 

[Hardline]

Hindsight is 20-20.
If any of you can see into the future Jerry will reward you handsomely.

 

[mldardy]

This guy Leveon Bell has been nothing short of incredible. Imagine if we'd picked him up.

Still on a rookie contract, we'd be able to pay Dez, let Murray walk and pay some of our other FAs.

Just sayin....

Yeah we really need Bell right now.

I knew someone would be butthurt. You guys never disappoint

Neither does the "gee" threads.

Dallas also picked Whalen and Witten.

Who they DID NOT pick was Tony Romo.

Nothing more need be said.

Because he was more talented than Escobar, because of Murray's injury history, because of depth...

 

[hutch1254]

Bell likes to smoke pot. Bell also wondered why it was a big deal when he got caught. Probably didn't fit the RKG thing.

The title of the thread says it all, are you really demanding we stop discussing cowboys on a cowboys forum?

Wipe your tears girl friend.

It happens. Teams don't have a play date or sleep overs with each athlete.

Denver could've had Andrew Luck but Tebow screwed that up.

Crazy, huh?

 

[dfense]

i wanted bell that year. He was right there for us. Than i seen we took escobar i was like *** another wasted pick. And as of now. Escobar has been a waste of a second rounder.

Wouldn't taking Bell make Murray a "wasted" pick?

in the end so what

Lol you're all kinds of fired up. Relax man we aren't running out of threads. You can make one too.
Maybe we can discuss how awesome Escobar is

That can be applied to nearly anythinganything

 

[TheCoolFan]

Eh, I'm more disappointed we didn't take Travis Kelce instead of Escobar if we were set on taking a TE. Kelce is a much better blocker and overall TE
