This team drafts well. What the fuck are you talking about?

If there is anything about this shit ass organization that I am confident in its our ability on draft day.

Since Garrett has taken over our drafts have been much better. I don't expect that to change.

He's also had 2 top 10 picks to work with.

2011 looks promising. Early on 2012 yet but I wouldn't label it a home run by any means

He has had two top 10 picks..makes it easier..for sure. But I've seen enough misses in the top 10 to know that it's no guarantee.

Our 2nd rounders have panned out too.

We wanted Wagner in the 2nd last year..And Brockers at 14...even more evidence we would have hit on two other picks...

Agree we've drafted better since 2010, but we sure last year was so great? It's still up in the air whether Claiborne is all that.

Way too early to tell on how well we draft.

2011 seems like a stud draft - 4 of 8 picks are solid contributors/cornerstone players.

2012 is way too early, but doesn't appear to be a good draft at all based on one year. Maybe 3 of 7 contributors.

I'll agree that 2012 is still early..but we didnt have a 2nd rounder either..

And hitting on 3/7 is pretty damn good. Not sure we will even hit on 3...lets see how it plays out

I'm not saying we such at drafting, but where is the immediate impact from our rookie classes?

Is it magically going to change this year?

CZ has a post in their free agency thread that says NFLN speculating Dallas may make trades for veteran players.

I think they are meaning we might trade some of our players to free up cap room. Spencer would be prime example IMO

Should've done that last year. Imagine if we shatcanned Jenkins for a 4th when we had the chance?

I'm all for it, but I don't see Spencer leaving.

Now... Miles? Yeah, I'd give Minny a call and say holla atcha boi!

3 out of 7 last year.

Good chance Matt Johnson is a significant contributor this year. Danny Coale will have a chance to make the team as he'll be healthy too.

Why is it a good chance Matt Johnson is a significant contributor this year?

Guy got injured everytime he got off the trainers table.

Difference between being a significant contributor and just taking snaps. I want people who play well, not just start because we have shit at the position.

For example, 2012 significant contributors: Bruce Carter, yes. Danny McCray, no.

McCray is fine as a special team contributor. He is good in that role.

I strongly suspect Johnson plays alot this year.

That is impossible to speculate. This guy has been getting hurt in practice, there is no telling how quickly he might get hurt in an actual game.

So we're under. Even with 5 mil in penalties and the alleged worst contacts given out by a front office ever?

Yeah thought so.

We are under in a very talent rich FA period and no money to sign anyone.

Hurray, Jerry.

Geez, u can't even get this right?

He had one nagging injury all year, he missed ota's fell behind and then tried to make up for it. They hurried him back and he reaggrivated the hamstring again.

Broaddus loves this guy and whined all year that they rushed him back.

I imagine with a full offseason he will be fine.

And you have absolutely no way to speculate that "I'm sure he will be fine" outside of you hoping and praying he will.

Just because you really really really hope last year was an anomaly doesn't make it so.
