    Cowboys 2023 Offseason Thread

    Eh, the tag price isn't bad, so I'm not ticked about it, but I would have used it on say Donovan Wilson. All he does is make tackles. Maybe the price for safety is too high for Jerry, or maybe they are thinking they can come to terms. To me, it's a little bit like when the Jets used their...

    He might've improved, but I still don't think he is good enough to get us where we want to be. I could be wrong, but he doesn't seem to play with the leverage and technique of Stepnowski, or the power of Ray Donaldson, or Travis Frederick. If we could somehow trade back just a little bit in...

    You have a good hunch, but that's an awful lot of tackles gone from the defense. I'd like to think that Jerry can find a way to keep one. Jerry didn't confirm that Plloard will be franchised and even suggested he might be using the tag to force someone else to sign. I get that Pollard is...

    It's hard to run the ball if you have a young Aaron Rodgers, no? I can't remember how those teams were constructed. But sometimes what a coach wants to do, and what he can do, are two different things. Is it possible that, philosophically, Mcarthy wanted to run the ball, but in Green Bay he had...

    What you wrote is why I would love them to draft an OT instead of thinking that Tyler Smith is the future at OT. There are higher rated OTs than Dewand Jones (Ohio), but I would be very happy if the Cowboys took him in round 1. The thought of Jones playing next to Tyler Smith at LG reminds me...

    I'm encouraged to read that McCarthy isn't necessarily interested in having the number 1 offense in the NFL. He wants to be more strategic and run the ball more when he senses his defense is tiring. Does anyone remember Micah Parsons so tired that he was on one knee asking for a breather and a...

    I wouldn't do it either. I argued to not sign Zeke to a bigger contract because we had Pollard. Few believed me. We could have traded Zeke and sent a message to all the other players who think they are indispensable. I don't claim to be the greatest talent evaluator, but I see lots of RBs...

    Who Here is Not Entirely Sold on Dak Prescott?

    This is because the NFL is still under the delusion that finding a good QB is harder than hard. Meanwhile, since Dak came into the NFL, how many good QBs have entered the NFL? Now, I'm not saying guys like Kyler Murray or Baker Mayfield are better than Dak (IMO, the shrimp QB should never be...

    How do people think Mahomes was able to play on a high ankle sprain in the Super Bowl after halftime? "Whoa, he's a warrior"? No, he took a needle. Unfortunately, sometimes when you can't feel pain you end up hurting yourself even more. I admire that LB that San Fran had who was worried about...

    Just farting around while watching TV and playing with a Mock simulator https://www.profootballnetwork.com/mockdraft/ I traded back, I think twice and took 3 QBs, LOL. I don't understand why teams that need a QB don't take more than one. Mike Shannahan did it, and he hit on KIrk Cousins, bombed...

    Yeah, you're right. But somehow I've had a story in my head that Jerry took Quincy early to have him under contract longer. Clearly that is wrong, but I somehow thought that. I must have conflated Quincy with someone else.

    Better find a QB. Luckily for the Redskins, they should finally be able to at least get a decent one as long as Snyder doesn't talk to him.

    I could have sworn Quincy was taken in round 1 for the 5th year option. Hmm, who am I thinking of then. Oh well, as time passes everything sort of bleeds together.

    Great punter too. He was so close to being a great QB. If even just one of those NFC Championships could have turned into a SB win. If my memory is right, I think he injured his wrist and was never quite the same.

    I think outlawing it is BS. I like it. Teams have always pushed the runner. I saw Travis Frederick do it. What teams haven't done is maybe run a play with the predetermined intention to do it. But I like the play.

    Yes, the more logical route is to take an OT/CB. My problem is that I don't like Dak as a QB. And, in general, I don't like this nonsense of paying the QB so much more relative to every other player. There must be a better system that someone can design. Oh, and Troy is right. Take the...

    If Hooker hadn't gotten injured, would he be talked about as being one of the better ones? Often, when the rankings are done, they go by the "what have you done lately" principle. You're right though. Round 2 is a more logical round, but then you lose the 5th year option. It's the Quincy...

    About 5 percent will agree with me, but I'd love to see Jerry grow a pair of balls again and draft Herndon Hooker in round 1 to get him on a 5-year deal. I'd develop him in year one. Have Dak earn that huge contract in 2023 by playing. Dump Dak after 2023 and make Herndon the starter. Dak is...

    So I'm listening to the draft show pump up O'Cyrus Torrence, and they are debating his (heavy) feet, and all I can think is NO, not a pure, guard only, in round 1. Okay, great he has size, but if size and power is what you want, and you're set on drafting OL, then I'd take Dawand Jones who I...

    Who else is super intrigued with OT Dawand Jones - Ohio State? I think back to the days of "The Hogs" with the Redskins (sorry, I don't think that Redkins is politically incorrect), or later with our own Cowboys in which the theme was that we were huge on the OL (except Mark Stepnoski, but we...
