    Zoners "DLaw or Earl?????" Yeah, dominant pass rusher in his 20s, entering prime of his career or 30+ safety coming off two bad leg injuries. Yeah, lets really contemplate that Fucking idiots.

    Yep. He had those red flags coming out, and sounds like the new coaching staff there already has made up their mind about him without seeing a single live practice.

    I think your understanding is wrong then. Heath's going to the bench if we get an upgrade at safety.

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    Jeffcoast. good player and great leader for long time. Certainly was one of Brandt's better picks from 78 on. Of course we took him instead of Dan Marino, and rode out the rest of the 80's with rag arm Danny White, flub Hogeboom and flub Pelluer.

    Eric Berry money for a guy who doesn't even remotely play like Eric Berry. Collins is 100% useless in space and coverage, we already have plenty of those types.

    Earl Thomas thread

    RW gets a bit of a bum rap on coverage sometimes because of the 2nd half of his career, but when he first came into the league his coverage was not bad. Go back and find that clip of him covering Jimmy Smith man to man 30-40 yds downfield and picking off that pass in man coverage for example...

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    He didn't have a hard on for Steve Walsh. He tells everyone exactly why he picked Walsh, because the first thing he learned after studying the NFL was the importance of having a great QB. There was no salary cap then, so he was getting a chance on a talent-less roster to have two guys viewed as...

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    They didn't even sign Tuinei to be an OL, in college he was a DL and when he first signed as a UDFA here he was a DL. Newton was a washout from the Redskins and the USFL and Gogan was also a nobody. They became good players because of Jimmy Johnson and Tony Wise (the OL coach, who was...

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    At the time, some idiots like Lou Holtz were ridiculing Johnson for picking Aikman over Tony Mandarich. Also, Sport magazine ran a horrendous hit job on Aikman and the Cowboys that draft, and said "Tim Rossenbach and Rodney Peete will both be better than Troy Aikman, YOU'LL SEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

    I'd much prefer Earl Thomas over Landon Collins anyway. Collins is lousy in coverage and we don't need anymore safeties who are lousy in coverage.

    I think Xavier Woods isn't the guy a new safety would be replacing.

    People are so utterly stupid when it comes to the draft pick thing. It takes us years to find good players, we get some, then clowns want to trade them for draft picks that may very well turn into guys like Bobby Carpenter and Morris Claiborne

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    Once upon a time in the 90's after Jimmy left Jerry drafted Larry Allen, Randall Godfrey and a few others. It doesn't forgive his monumental failure as a GM from 94-2001 (especially those years) because the blind squirrel found a nut. Brandt was THE cutting edge draft guru from 61-77, but after...

    Gil Brandt becomes Cowboys' 17th Hall of Famer

    Again ass-hat, Jimmy made up his own mind. If for whatever reason Jimmy would have woke up and been an idiot and not picked Aikman, it would have been HIS decision. He didn't pick Aikman because of Gil Brandt. So no dipshit, Gil Brandt does not get credit for drafting Aikman.

    They don't discredit what he did, but he was a massive failure as someone who ran the draft during the 78-87 time period.
