DT's & MLBs
I agree that we need all of the above . Draft value wise we need to avoid DT in round one. We can't afford to draft another Mazi I would go OL, LB in first 3 rounds. I would be happy with OL and LB in the 1,2nd and 3rd. LB has to be a priority. We need a true ILB that has size. Those safeties we got are nice,but they got shoved out of the way in run support. Using those safeties as a base package failed.
who is the top MLB in the draft?
Best of the bunch is Trey Benson (FSU). Not what you may call downhill RB. He's good at making the first and second guy miss, has size and speed. Had a bad knee injury a few years ago in college, but seems to be over it. Miyan Williams (OSU) is more likely the kind we will draft - 5th-7th rounder. Reminds me of Rhamondre Stevenson, just hard to get a knockout shot on him and he's got great power, a low center of gravity and plays behind his pads. Can add a second cheap RB, speedster in a small package - Jaden Shirden (Monmouth) for a 7th round.
I was thinking Derrick Henry....
We do need a more consistent running game, but Dak played his best ball this season
In the regular season. He was better in the postseason as a rook
This was his best year. It's not close. One and done is one and done
Has nothing to do with the point I was making. His record was 13-3 and he played great in the playoff game as a rookie. He went 12-5 and played like total dogshit this year in the playoffs. Only difference is he had Zeke back then and he makes $40M more per year now. He needs the running game. He isn't "that guy" that can elevate lesser talent. He wasn't then, he wasn't when you were banging the drum to pay him his last deal and he's not now when he's about to make $50M+ per year
You can't play the running game card and ignore the fact that it was by far his best season ever.
This was his best STATISTICAL season ever. How do that work out against SF? Buffalo? Green Bay? I couldn't care less that he throws for 4 TD's against 4-13 teams or 400 yards in straight garbage time when GB was up 48-16 after 2 picks including a pick 6 against GB. He had his "best year" and the team is further away from getting to the Super Bowl than when he was a rookie. Pay him $50M+ and he will have less to work with, not more. But the Cowboys tied themselves into keeping him his entire career when they paid him the first time and structured his contract the way they did. I was against resigning him back then. Against it now. I don't think we will ever win a Super Bowl with Dak
Yeah, you've said that before my friend. A few times. And you'll say it next year at this time, and the next...at some point, reactionary can still be right
Trey Benson would help take a little pressure off Dak and be cheap. 3rd or 4th round. Gaping holes a LB and RB. May be easier to find a starting RB in this draft than LB. This team go to stop reaching early in the draft
how many QB'S do you see winning games consistantly throwing 40 plus times per game?
I think it's going to be a very interesting offseason for the Cowboys. They will extend Dak. They have Lamb and Parsons to try and get done. They have drafted well, plus Diggs and Overshown are coming back. I think Lance will be QB2 and Rush released. FA wise, I think they may go full on purge and go super young and hope for the best.
100% on Jerry. It's not Dak's fault that he isn't a HOF QB. It's also not his fault that he tries to max out his money. Lots of guys do. He isn't doing anything wrong.
