jenkins off to oakland

There are probably many other teams who have done just as poorly as the Cowboys have, but I could care less about them. What is a problem is the Cowboys recent drafts during Wade's tenure.

Not really, but ok

Its disappointing, but he was a late first round pick who was a pretty solid starter for most of his time here. He also was a probowler (well deserved for that season)

And for a guy who many questioned desire or attitude, I think he should get some props for getting through that miserable 2011 season injury wise without ever complaining or blaming his injury for any issues on the field.

So no, he wasn't a wasted pick.

Agree. That's a stupid criterion for judging a draft pick. I guess Mario Williams and Jake Long were wasted draft picks, too.

Jenkins was one of the best corners in the conference in 2009. No way that's a bad pick in the late 20s unless you know the guy is some known criminal and who gets himself suspended, and you should have seen it coming.

And for all we know, we might not have gone after Claiborne if Jenkins didn't wreck his shoulder. We might even have been better off keeping Jenkins and drafting Wagner and Brockers.
