Mike Jenkins would most likely not held out, sulked, etc. if we hadn't drafted Claiborne. He would be playing for a contract and would have been starting opposite Carr.
With the 14th pick let's say we drafted Michale Brockers (puke) he'd be starting at LDE.
With the 45th pick we could have...
You're right, you did say IF. I just like how (some) fans are okay with assuming every move we make is a good one but don't allow the idea that a move we made is the wrong one.
1st round pick = 1 starter
2nd round pick = 2 starters
Mike Jenkins sulking and not rehabbing because of Caliborne's selection = 3 starters
I like Claiborne a lot, even though I don't agree with the team's "highest graded CB since Deion Sanders" nonsense. But if you ask me if I would rather...
No, no, no. That's bush league. I want some Matrix-like special effects added to it. Lee should stop the ball with a wave of his hand and then fly through the top of Jerry World, shattering the big screen. Music and best plays? What a joke.
Jerry Jones wants to win because of Jerry. He isn't willing to sacrifice his ego to make it happen so in truth, he doesn't want it as bad as he would like fans to believe.
Good NFL owners are competitive and care about winning. They made their fortunes elsewhere. I don't mind the wanting to make money, that's fine, just stop making it a priority over winning actual games.
