By Dan Steinberg (Jeffrey Boan - AP) The Atlanta Falcons traded 4,000 draft picks plus several crates of sports nutrition beverage to trade up and pick Julio Jones. That was stupid, Leonard Hankerson might argue, because he is actually better, and was available in the third round, which would...

Subtle as they were, several clues were left throughout last week at Valley Ranch that would make a careful observer believe there is a good chance that the NFL season would go forward as planned this year. Last Thursday, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was asked about the likelihood that the...

Courtesy of MyMeaninglessThoughtsOn... Garrett puts his stamp on this team with this draft? Yeah, I think he does. I heard a story that Jerry was raving to a friend about Garrett and the way he’s run things since taking the HC job, and the friend asked him “Is there anything about Garrett so...

April, 26, 2011 By Todd Archer ARLINGTON, Texas -- While Jerry Jones believes the uncertain labor situation in the NFL might lead to more trades higher in the first round, the Cowboys owner and general manager does not sound like he will make a bold move in Thursday’s first round. So if...
