2023 Random Cowboys Stuff Thread

And you would still trade him for Sam Howell.

Confess!

.... no?

But I'd still love to have Howell here for what Washington spent to acquire him.

[CowboyRoy]

Yeah just as much as Dak was ready from the embarrassing playoff loss last year

Another clown that thinks QB's play all by themselves?

The entire Cowboys team was outmatched last year especially when Pollard went down. SF owns us. And they will be outmatched again this year. Although our team is better.

 

[boozeman]

.... no?

So now, you back off. And you wanted to give up Turd Ferg+ for him.

Kind of what I figured.

4th round pick. Ferguson and Bland are living proof why the draft prognosticators are so full of shit most of the time.

Got to point out that Ferguson was a Mike pet cat, too.

Not saying he didn't want Schoonmaker, because I believe him when he said a priority was to block the c gap better. But I wonder if he really thought more of Schoon than Ferg. Interesting that the DC.com war room special didn't show anything about the debate on that pick.

Also... I love that when I type "Schoon", my phone now autosuggests both Schoonmaker and Schoonmun. Maybe technology isn't all bad.

Meanwhile Levis and Tommy "Tommy D" DeVito are tearing it up while Bryce Young is barely keeping his head above water.

I don't think you can classify what Young has done this season as above water in any way at all. That poor fella is drowning in spectacular fashion.

I never, ever said that I'd trade Dak for Howell nor did I ever say Howell was even close to the same tier as Prescott.

But yeah I'd still give up Ferguson for Howell.

Purdy is the better example but yeah the point is true that draft evaluations are often wrong. It's one of the reasons that having extra picks is such a good idea. Even in the late rounds.

and conversely that someone in Dallas knows a thing or two.

One thing we can be sure of is whoever that "someone" is, it sure as hell ain't Jerry.

It’s probably the shadow GM. You know.

It's also proof that there is real value in having day three picks.

Steven A talking about Dak for MVP is straight out of bizarro world.

 

[ravidubey]

I think all the MVP talk is premature

Let’s see where everyone lands come season’s end

And I’m fine with that being the regular season’s end

Oh Hell yes, especially when you draft as well as we have in recent years.

Armstrong, Schultz, Pollard, Biadasz, Ferguson, Bland, Clark… just rattling names the list is prolly bigger, we’ve come a long way since the likes of David Arkin.

We just know what we want and trust our scouts more than ever. I’ve come to expect to find impactful players if not eventual starters in rounds 4-5. That was rarely the case pre-McClay and especially pre-Parcells
