Who was the absolute worst most hopeless player to ever play for the Dallas Cowboys

[RustyBourneHorse]

Scrubs, i believe Luckys stats were on par with Jeff Ogden's and Stepfret Williams was a slight notch better, I remember going to training camp in Wichita Falls and Ogden was all the rage. Dude turned out to be a bum.

Probably before my watching time Ogden, when was he on the team?

Many fans have vivid memories about bad things that have happened to this franchise.

 

[Mcsports]

some of the most hapless player memories for me are:
That crazy long blocked field
Goal on Vandeejagt that allowed (the skins I think) to turn around and immediately kick the game winner.
Chaz Green getting abused by the falcons
Pozderac and his amazing holding act (the Giants maybe)
And the Sudden end of
A prime time game when Alex Barron was called
For a penalty and, by law, Dallas didn’t get to
Snap another play. It may have wiped
Out a TD. Hard to
Unwind after that one.

Gavin Escobar. we chose that scrub over Leveon Bell

 

[SlammedZero]

Rob Pettiti is up there on the list.

The definition of ... OL on Skates ...

Ah you beat me to it! I was scrolling through thinking I had a good one. Lol

Brandon weeden let us down badly when he came in to get us through room's injury, the red rifle as well, he played good enough, but he was disappointing for the opportunity he had. cooper rush as a contrast played very comfortably for us.
roy Williams the wr also was a big let down. but mostly I liked all our players in general,

Babe Laufenberg

he had a hard time backing up troy, but I love him as a commentator, I love his insight into the cowboys,

Just missed him lol.

 

[Buzzbait]

Which cornerback should I start with.

Jacques Reeves. The guy was worthless.
Aside from cornerbacks, Chaz Green and Phil Costa were terrible.

 

[DB_Cooper]

10 pages in and no mention of Rico Gathers? Maybe it is because he never played…

 

[StarChamber_33]

Mike Vanderjagt... just our luck.

We sign the most accurate kicker in NFL history (at the time) and he’s so awful that we need to replace him midseason with Martin Gramatica.

Very good call.. He was GREAT during his time in Indy, but by the time we got him he was completely done MENTALLY & PHYSICALLY.

Yeah I dont have anything against the fella, but gosh I remember him backing up Troy, and he would drop back and assume the fetal position. It was hard to watch.

Dak Prescott

Not surprising since Weeden was a vet who had never been good. It would've been a much bigger shock if he'd played well.

Eb was a bust for sure but I guess you never Shante Carver play, thankfully he played very little.
If Larry Allen hadn't been in that draft it might have been the worst ever. Carver was their number one pick that year. Pretty sure they found out after they drafted him that his 40 time was actually run for only 35 yards and he was a 4.9 forty guy. I remember his one career highlight being a sack where the opposing QB ran right into him on a busted play.

 

[kskboys]

Serviceable players who we expected more out of are not the worst players. Carpenter, RWilliams, Jacque Reeves, those guys are not even in the conversation!!!

Dallas moved up to draft both, lol
