Then again Dez and DWare were both Jerry picks that panned out bigly
Hmmmm. I could start with Quincy Carter and go on and on but what would be the point? You can single out DWare as one pick out of dozens over 20 years -- leave out a couple of the Parcells years --that the blind pig found in the forest.
Dez? Not so sure, given where he is now, and given the police-blotter turmoil of his early years. Great physical talent, fine as long as he had an improvisational QB throwing to him. Never took the team to the Big One; constant source of turmoil, etc.
I'd give Jerry one-and-a-half good picks over 20 years. When Jimmy left, first, and then Parcells later -- and the football people left with them -- Jerry couldn't find his ass with both hands. The record proves it beyond any doubt.
