Problem is you need cap space to play the FA Market. Something Dallas rarely has is cap space.My biggest problem with this draft was our shitty free agent signings every single year. We just refuse to sign an impact player even if it means cutting our own average players to do it. You don't win in the NFL with JAGs. What we are paying Brown and Lewis could get us an actual good CB. We overpaid Crawford for years. Jaylon? Caving to Zeke's monster deal? It goes on and on. How can an NFL team that is a borderline playoff team go into a draft with so many huge holes on one side of the ball? I think we signed Kazee simply because Quinn likes him and he was cheap. Everyone we sign is always cheap and we get what we pay for. That's what we have done for years and that's why we never have anything to show for it after a couple of years. It's players that sucked or players that leave for more money after a year because we only gave them a one year deal. McCarthy comes in and brings in his buddies as coaches and we have to unload a few of them after one season too. We just can't break the mold of loyalty or liking someone over talent. Until we start signing other players over our own or players that have played for our DCs before we are going to be mediocre. If Kazee isn't good we are going to be in trouble unless we bring in another FS. I'm hoping we have a move or two left in us before all is said and done to change this pattern up
Exactly what I pointed out. Lewis and Brown vs one good FA corner. Over paid Zeke and Jaylon and kept Crawford's cap hit for years
Brugler during the draft on Cowboys.com and on the web this morning but it’s all relative anyway. I did not like the pick no more no less. I like the shelvin kid from LSU if he is still on the board when we pick
I love Brugler and think he is the best since Gosselin. I'm not saying Brugler liked the pick. I'm saying that's not what a ranking says exactly when it's one persons opinion and 32 different teams are picking with their opinions. Plus does anyone really think these writers spend enough time on player 225 to have that strong of an opinion between him and player 220 or even 210? The rankings are mostly ranges. And again, I'm in no way defending this pick. I'm saying i like the potential of the kid not that I would take him at #99.
Unless you have 20 hours a day to watch college football you have to rely on the guys putting their lists together. I try looking at every top 100 lists to get a grasp of the 1st 3 rounds, rounds 4-7 is a accordion
Exactly and those guys making those lists don't have 20 hours a day either. The scouts however, do. Mocks and draft reports are opinions from people who really know no more than your average internet poster.
The good thing is, Our defense can't get any worse. Save this post.My biggest problem with this draft was our shitty free agent signings every single year.

Look at Terrance Steele. He has all that length and sucks at football.
Jerry needs better scouts. Cox is better than those stiffs that we drafted in the 3rd round. Would have drafted him before any of these guys we took last night.
It can only improve. Parsons and Joseph will make sure of that. Parsons is like a heat seeking missle at the LOS.
Cox isn't impressive. There is a reason he has lasted this long. He isn't sudden. Give me the first two of our 3rd round over taking him.
