    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    Another "black" mark on his record is the fact that the draft (from 1976 to 1992) was 12 rounds, which gave him many more opportunities to unearth hidden gems and improve the team. But he didn't find nearly enough difference makers. Would've been even uglier had he not taken a flyer on Walker...

    Beasley may be two years older but he's quicker out of his breaks than Cobb at this point.

    He's an anthem protester. Pass.

    Taco threw a fit and stopped trying when he lost his job to Gregory. Expect the same if we acquire Quinn.

    Oh yeah. We had an hour-long conversation about Marcel Proust just last week

    This was the first time in years we had some decent salary cap room. Oh well.

    No problem. Switzer will step up.

    No hard feelings. He was a nifty little receiver for us and I wish him well.

    Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of Jerry bashing on Twitter, which is stupid. They make it sound like both receivers were on the market at the same time. Jones had no idea Brown would be so cheap when he made the Cooper trade. And it's unlikely he'd want to pair Brown (a professional malcontent) with Dak...

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    The Hogeboom era got off to a great start against the Rams in '84. Laser passes all over the field. Not sure what his problem was (reading defenses?), but he couldn't sustain it.

    Collins is a latter day RW31. Can't cover worth shit.

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    We got a 1st, 2nd and 3rd for Walsh. In retrospect, it was a stupid move, seeing as how we ended up with the #1 pick again. Good thing we suckered the Saints.

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    Bill Polian gets credit for choosing Manning over Leaf. Brandt/Jimmy were presented with no such dilemma.

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    The Cowboys were desperate for a QB and had the #1 pick. Ergo, Aikman was a no-brainer. I give Johnson credit for accomplishing in three years what Brandt couldn't for over a decade.

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    Jimmy always wanted Troy. After watching his personal workout in LA, he phoned Jerry and yelled "We found our quarterback!" Nor was Aikman some obscure prospect that Brandt found at Appalachian State. EVERY team would have taken him #1, so any credit you want to extend to Gil should be minimal.
