On a side note of that

run a two TE set .... The second TE is supposed to be a blocker . ( IE Bennett)

Witten is an average blocker .... But when he retires .... No one is gonna talk about his blocking skills

Fuck nuts in New England .... Hernandez ..... was a hella run blocker

Football is a ying and yang deal. Each player should compliment each other. Not be the same clone

This organization has had a hard on for drafting TE's in the 2nd round & replacing them with another. When they got a steal in the 3rd round with a future HOF. They just get to cute @ times

Not his fault he was drafted by a team who has a HOF TE & a idiotic coaching staff that doesn't know how to use a two TE set...

#13 Personnel was a Joke :laugh3:

I'm not sure what that has to do with the fact that he is a horrible blocker and I don't care who our TE is he had 9 friggin catches. 9!!! So, That's a cop out and an excuse. Guy was pathetic last year. He may turn out to be a player, but like I said he has a long way to go...

So you don't put any fault on the geniuses who drafted him? Trying to be like the Pats without the coaching staff

actually no its not ......

We swapped up ... added a Fb and started running out of the I-Formation so He wasn't on the field

Check the # of times he was targeted

You are blaming the player for the coaching and the GM/owner

Let me ask you something Jarntt

If we would have drafted a Moss years ago ....

and the coaching staff used him as a blocker..... would you cuss the player the coaching or the GM?


The player is what he is .... So me I look the two other places

Per rotoworld, Cowboys have shown interest in Burleson & Decoud. They may be taking the Veteran approach

Yes I do. We shouldn't have drafted him. Did I say something that made it sound like I wanted him? If I did I apologize as I've hated the pick every day sine we made it.

I don't get the comparison, but yes I would be pissed if we used Moss as a blocker only. Escobar had plenty of snaps on passing downs. He stunk all around last year. That certainly doesn't mean he will always stink, but like I said he has a long way to go...

I haven't come across a Cowboys fan who wanted him @ that pick, but the beef should be with the organization not the player

No doubt. But does that mean we can't point out that he had a crappy year?

He was set up for failure from the get go, do you think he was properly used for his skill set? The best offense last year was the 3 WR set & he was not even on the field...

Only when the lil red genius decide to run the damn ball but we all know he prefer to sling it around. Hence the 3 WR set

Im not a Garrett fan ....

Sets out in my head though that he went back to what made the Cowboys in the 90s ( and it worked) to save his job for one more year

Agree, but isn't it his job to get open and then he'd be targeted more? Romo isn't the type to lock in on the #1 option; he finds the open guy and the defenses weren't exactly putting their best cover guys on him. i am not giving this guy a pass for his poor season. I predicted Hanna would catch more balls last year, but I didn't think he would only need to get to 10 to do it.

Disagree again

We force the ball to Dez every game ... if we don't he goes cry bitch mode

And how many years Have I read on here Witten is Tony's security blanket?


Orton who had nothing to lose went to him ...... and what happened?

In what a decade of watching me post....


First time you ever see me say trade up for someone .... and especially for a player that isnt a need position

I know people will disagree.... I also know what I see in him

When it comes to Escobar. I am taking Jarntt side on this one. He should get plenty of the blame for his lack of targets. he was well below where he should have been last year. When you play a full season & only get 9 catches. It starts with the player.

I was hoping we'd go after Chris Clemmons, but Decoud would still be a solid add. I think Burleson would be a decent depth move as well. Could still go S early, as well as WR later on, but those guys would contribute for sure
