Good, they should. Put masks on and the risks are lower than the fucking riots we are seeing. Plus it may give us an advantage over teams with no fans.
the stadium is large enough to accommodate some separation and spacing of fans. it will be a revenue hit for sure though.

Well, he did spell out compromise in a follow up Tweet.
That's all well and good, but how do you explain, "Jerry Jones is looking have an"?

"looking to have an anthem compromise", appears to not have proofread before submission

I'd say it's among this list:

Bobby Carpenter
Danny Noonan
Morris Claiborne
David Lefleur
Shante Carver
Kevin Brooks
Billy Cannon
Taco Charlton has to be on the list if Barbie Carpenter is. Claiborne was bad but nothing like Charlton.

I also wouldn't include Cannon whose neck exploded right out of the gate.

As much credit as Brandt gets, nobody remembers first round busts he had:

Charley Young
Bill Thomas
Tody Smith
Dennis Homan

Charlton was useless but went 28th. Carpenter was in the teens I believe. Claiborne went 6th or whatever AND cost another pick (2nd?) to get there.

I agree if Cannon got hurt, he should probably be left off. I didn't realize (or more likely I just forgot) that was the issue. That's why I left Sherrard off.

I don't remember much further back than the mid 80s so I'll defer to you on the earlier ones.

Bobby was pick 18. Still sucked but there was some hope he could at least be decent(that proved wrong). Claiborne is the top of the list because of the position and the fact that we traded up.

Parcells seemed to have whiffed on several OL also.

Feh.

I am angered far more by Taco Charlton than I am Bobby Carpenter.

The amount of anger is what talent they passed on. Some drafts are weaker than others.

We passed on Watt for Charlton. That is undeniable.

When Carpenter was picked this is what was available:

Antonio Cromartie, Tamba Hali, Laurence Maroney and especially Manny Lawson.

I don't think Lawson was all that. Hali would have been a better choice.

But that draft has proven to be full of busts. It all comes down to team fit sometimes.
