I'm up for that Frankie. I should be home. I have to teach some classes at the hospital that afternoon until 5PM though.

As for right tackle, I forgot they had moved Collins over there. I'll submit that if they got a LG and then a young guy who could fill in when Smith is out and eventually replace him entirely in 2-3 years, that would be a decent path forward.

I don't disagree that Dak held the ball too long at times, or that it was often his WR's fault. But I still think they need significant OL help.


Smith was quoted as saying he is 100 % and feels better than he has in a long time, all players go through injuries, 70 % of Smith is better than 50 % of all left tackles in the NFL. But a good back up swing tackle would make tons of sense.
I don't disagree with any of that. If he's 70% healthy and plays 100% of the time, that would be great. Hopefully this year is better than last. I believe the poor performance we got from LT is a big part of the drop in offensive production last year.

So the Eagles lose their starting QB, THE most important position on an NFL team, for the season and somehow manage to win the Super Bowl but the Cowboys LT has a less than stellar season and they cant even make the playoffs

Every year its some [censored] excuse why they cant even make it to the conference championship much less the SB


Look Scags. Comparing the Cows to the effin iggles isn't a viable option. Philthy had an amazing run, could continue it. They've put together a really good GM,scouting, and coaching staff so I see them remaining dominant. Fo sho Dallas organization is not the same as Philthy's and you coming on here and pointing out what Philthy did has nothing to do with Dallas' draft. I don't even like to think about Philthy because it puts me in a fowl (pun?) mood. I , as a Cow fan, couldn't care less about talking about what Philthy did last year as it is WELL DOCUMENTED/KNOWN by anyone with even a passing interest in pro football. And again for good measure . . . eff 'em !

I think Dallas can pass on making safety a priority THIS YEAR unless they can swing a team favorable deal with the Sea Hags for Earl Thomas. It can be a liability but not a turrible one. In no particular order in the draft Dallas' needs are OL, DL, LB, WR. and back-up RB (with receiving abilities). Adding a safety to the list is just going to take away from another need somewhere else. Dallas will have $72million in cap space for next year.

Agreed on all counts.

I've thought about that too but think they give up too much to get that high up on the list. He is the ultimate plug and play guy. I think great value is to be had later in this draft and we can't afford to give up too much which moving up to get Nelson would require. (the second statement is redundant but worth reiterating). Nelson is probably the best , most prepared player in this draft. He could easily be the #1 value in the draft but the need for QB is so high he will probably fall to 5-10. Add Barkley to the QB shopping spree and Nelson falls but still too far for the Cows. Hernandez is mean and nasty too and would be a good addition and good value. He won't last until #50 though. If the Cows are going to move up they can grab a LB at #19 and then trade up (maybe with one of those #4 picks and some more bait) to grab Hernandez early in round 2 ... it'll be less expensive and still get the job done. Hernandez (or the OG from Georgia, Wynn) will likely be there early in round 2. LB and OL have to be priorities.

Here is their priority levels:
1. Defensive line
2. Linebackers
3. TE
4. Receivers
5. QB

And I could be talked into switching 1&2 and also 3&4. They've got the talent on the OL. Dak's problems are not from a bad line. Dak's problems are from the reality of the NFL hitting him right in the nose. I'm still not sold on Dak as the QB of the future for the Cowboys. I hope Jones and company don't skip over the QB position when they evaluate value on the board.

Agree with Nelson being a high price to pay, but he is sooo nasty. No place for Cox to hide.
