I get that, but honestly, I don't care where a guy is drafted as long as he eventually contributes. Last year's second round pick is being outplayed by this year's 5th round pick. Anthony Brown is outplaying the majority of corners that were drafted in his class. Would I LIKE for Joseph to be playing better than Bland? Of course, but in the end, I just want Joseph to be a decent player. Same for Tolbert. He's a kid from a small school who is probably a little overwhelmed. All we can hope for is that it starts to click for him.
I don't care who it is or where he was acquired. I'm just happy when the players and the team is good. The Cowboys are good and it is fun to watch.

Gallup wasn't much his first year. Even Irvin took a couple years to become the playmaker. Give the rook time to adjust to the NFL.
No comparison. Irvin played in 14 games his rookie year and scored 5 TDs. Gallup played in all 16 his rookie year with 2 TDs (Both had about the same # of receptions (32 and 33 respectively) and yards (500 and 300).

I would wait and watch Tolbert play before making statements about him being a bust. He could very well play against Chicago.

Cowboys used a costly 3rd round pick on WR Jalen Tolbert. Fans were told Jalen Tolbert was looking great and would be a big part of this 2022 Cowboys offense.

We're in Week 8 and at the end of October. Where is Jalen Tolbert? He's been inactive most of the past 7 games. When is he going to play and be a part of this season? The Cowboys offense is struggling, has several receivers injured and is in need of some help.

Where's the beef? Where's the help? Where is our costly 3rd round draft pick?

:huh:


He came from a small college. He needs more time to adjust to the speed of the game. He will be better next year.

Very true. Sad thing is Fehoko has been put on IR due to injury the past 2 games, yet Jalen Tolbert is still not getting on the field. What gives? Does he suck that badly? Was he a wasted 3rd round pick?

The problem with Tolbert is he sucks at special teams. If you are not good enough to be one of the four top slots at WR then you have to find your way on the field in STs.

He is not very good.

Better go check your sources before you insult people. Cowboys and raiders exchanged picks. We gave them a 6th, they gave us a 7th. But thanks for educating me.

Stout post! That was some heavy schooling there, but AC did man up to it, so props to him on that.

We need an offense that can get him the ball. We're struggling to get CD Lamb targets, how can we target Tolbert? We can get Turpin a target in space either

We're limited at QB, we're a run first- defensive team right now
