I didnt know it has been almost a year since Cowboys had a home win, that's bit wild.

Looks like they'll end up picking mid teens, probably even above Niners, so much for dreams of picking Jeanty or getting load of picks from another team lol.

Ashton Jeanty would be great not going to lie. There are several good RB’s though. The guy I originally wanted last year (before he decided not to declare for the draft) was TreVeyon Henderson. He would have been the best RB in the draft last year and now he’s like the 4th or 5th best RB this year. Henderson is now projected as a 3rd round pick. The Cowboys could also go with Ollie Gordon from OkST. Either way they’re going to get a good RB in this draft. They have so many needs just still with taking the best available player in each round regardless of the position (except RB, they NEED a RB).

Won't matter where they draft if Jerry is still the GM and both Prescott and McCarthy return as well. Book it. Lost cause. :wizard:

Do they? Dowdle has looked decent. They just need to upgrade the OL imo. Stop giving Zeke opportunities also would certainly help their cause.

That’s why your entire thread was a waste of time.
Because Dak is the QB for a while and Jerry isn’t going away.

He’s on rn. Kind of reminds me of ray rice the way he runs.

Dowdle has been ok but he’s not a game breaker and really is better suited as a backup RB. I would feel much better about the RB’s if it’s Dowdle and a game breaker. I agree about Zeke, get him off the team.

I also agree about the OL. The rumors that Zack Martin is going to retire this off season. He’s been very average at best this year and he has been injured the last 2 games. The last two games they have been starting TJ Bass and Brock Hoffman at LG and RG. Since that move they have been run blocking MUCH better (although not against strong competition). It will be very interesting to see what moves they make to improve the OL.

Honestly, if you don't have a good OL it doesn't matter who you have at RB.

Ken Walker is one of the better backs but the Hawks have struggled to run the ball consistently because the line has been so putrid.

Saquon is in the MVP conversation this year because of that OL.

He'll be a coordinator. But he'll never be a HC again.

That’s my point, the OL is not that far off. They have good young talent on the OL. I expect they will add another couple more young guys and whoever they bring in as HC has to see that Tyler Smith is the best LT on the team. The jury is still out on Guyton. But overall even with Zack Martin retiring the OL will be improved next year. I’m actually more concerned with their WR’s than I am their OL because they have more young talent than at WR.

After CeeDee there’s not much else there. They likely let Brandin Cooks walk, Jalen Tolbert is more of a 4th WR, and Mingo is a project. Things the area I wish they would go into free agency for. They need an established threat opposite CeeDee.

He should ask for his release and sign with the Chiefs because he shouldn't retire as a pussy loser for not winning a SB. None of his other achievements matter including the All Pro participation trophy.

At least Mr B is happy that his Cowboys aren't loser pussies. YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME.

Even though fans may root for the tank you can’t expect players will do the same. It’s always in their best interest to play hard and play their best. Also as much as I talked about this possibility being the worst Cowboys team ever they’re still too talented to be that. They’re just not the worst team in the league. They’re really somewhere in the middle of the pack (lower end of the middle). Just play hard and where you end up is where you end up.

Your reading comprehension is not very good my friend. Zack Martin isn’t celebrating that he never won a SB. His fans are also not celebrating that he never won a SB. I’m not sure why that’s so hard for you to understand.

But if he gets inducted into the Cowboys Ring of Honor would that be celebrating a loser?
