Dallas Cowboys 2026 Offseason Thread

Cowturd remains unsold.

I know what you're thinking but that's not me..............

Morning, Pop.

Welcome back Amigo.

 

[Dodger12]

I am from Saskatchewan. I bring good tidings from the north, fine sir. ~insert liberal joke here~

Welcome back and don't be afraid to give us your thoughts and don't let BB or dbair push you around. I'll have your back.

My thought on this offseason (mainly defense):

• Parker is most likely this defense's savior (mock all you want)
  • His disguise defense should go good with some of the smarts (Downs, Gary, and even Barham) we acquired in the draft and FA to go along with a surprisingly decent base
  • He will work wonders with our secondary. Hopefully Bland comes back healthy and give us more glimpses of his potential. I can easily seeing Seatbelt and Revel turning the corner and I really like the addition of Thompson for really good depth at S
  • I think he already had buy-in that will only get stronger when the players see the scheme work in real snap situations
  • Our interior D-line is going to be rock solid with Williams and Clark as the anchors of course and Bullard now
• I am stoked about our offense yet again of course
  • I think Javonte has another good year, and I think Blue and Mafah will help spell him better this year than they did last
  • Dak just needs to stay consistent and Lamb, Pickens, and Flo will carry him far
  • Biggest concern is OL. If we have injuries of any magnitude we are in trouble

Only 8 more days, boys. I'm in the "excited for the new season" phase, so all of this is subject to change or be deleted if necessary.

Good post just be careful not to trigger Amigo Dodger with any positive Dak vibes.

WR's don't carry QB's. It's QB's that make WR's money. If your WR's need to carry your QB, you have a QB problem.

Too late......

"Carry them far" was an idiom more than a statement of fact. Dak doesn't have to have the WRs carry him. But, it helps any QB get further towards the ultimate goal to have talent around him, so maybe I should phrase it as the WRs should greatly aid in the passing game being elite again this year with Dak at the wheel.

Come on Jerruh pull the trigger on a FA stud middle linebacker NOW! Your linebacker corp is suspect at best. Bobbie Wagner or someone like him will instill confidence and leadership and be great insurance when DO gets hurt again. Let them get acclimated in training camp rather than a last minute add. Everyone knows the LB corp we have is weak.

It's tough for any qb to stay consistent, but, having elites Lamb, Pickens and Flo, the three can easily bail Dak out of poor passes by their exceptional route-running, creating yards after the catch etc... IMO, we'd be in more trouble should Dak go down. Milton may arguably have the strongest arm in the entire NFL, but he struggles significantly with accuracy, decision-making, and consistent execution.

We are in deep shit if Dak goes down. Milton is a mental midget and Howell can't drive the bus well enough to do anything of significance.

The LB's are going to be fine.

I doubt Milton is going to be the #2 this year. Howell is probably going to beat him out pretty easily unless he gets hurt.

Holy shit, Iamtdg has come back here and is bullying Amigo Dodger.

Praising 4 is one thing, but Dodger bought the first ever Sam Howell Cowboys jersey as soon as it was off the printing press. He is going to be pissed when he sees this.

I'm not bullying him. Or, at least, that's not how I intended it.

I have been surfing these Cowboys boards for almost 2 years and have always used Iamtdg. I changed over at the DCC a few years ago. This is only the second username I have ever used on a msg board.

Milton won't be the #2......that distinction goes to Sam "Superbowl" Howell.

Agreed. And some neighborly advice......don't let dbair influence your take on Dak. He's already stuffing the HoF ballots.

He isn't going to affect my opinion. You obviously have never witnessed a full-blown dust-up at the DCC. No opinions get changed on my board. Bunch of hardheaded assholes.
