Some miscellaneous stuff

That is a good point. I found a video of him being targeted this season and the guy throwing him the ball was terrible. The routes he ran were decent and some were even good. He was getting open. I hope he can be a reliable target.

He was also the #4 WR on a poor Carolina team that is looking to the future and yet still behind numbers 1, 2 and 3 who weren't very good and he still got no action. looks like a horrible overpay. Could it work out? Of course it could, but the odds are way against this one IMO. Typical Dallas trading for a guy (and even saying it as if it’s meaningful) that they liked in the draft and seemingly have had blinders on ever since. If we like college tape we might as well play Deuce.

Yep.this trade was another foolish move

Agreed. Even if it turns out to be a good move, we overpaid which is why Jerrah does not do free agency.

True but he deserves criticism this year as he is near the bottom of QBs in the league. For the last several years before, he was excellent and put up video game numbers against teams the boys should beat and then regressed to below average for games against good teams or with a defensive pulse. So yes, Dak is a great leader (although this year one could say he faulted there too) and an NFL QB but definitely not an elite or top 10 QB when it counts and this year extremely mediocre. And no a below average NFL QB. Should not be paid the most of any QB but that is on the owner.

I agree with PDay that it's the money and only the money. I love Dak to death and am proud to have a great kid like him at QB. And he's a very good player. But he is older now, no longer a great athlete and can't run like he used to. He needs talent around him and could win a Super Bowl if he had it. But not with this Owner and Son hiding behind the cap. If this were hated Philly, or KC or Baltimore, those are clubs that pay their QB and still go out and get them more help. With Jerry's business model, it's almost impossible to make it work

I agree with this. The kid may work out well, hope he does. But by all reports, the Panthers were stunned when the Cowboys offered a high 4th. Better receivers in this league have been had for a pic exchange. A 6th would have gotten this kid. Jerry has zero business making trades. He backed himself into a corner with his "something up my sleeve at the deadline" bullcrap

but you skipped over the second part of the first sentence of the post.

I understand this point. You most certainly could be 100% correct. but separation seems to be a problem and somewhat size in the position group.

I'll just say coaching at one point in time was an honorable profession, not always the case on many sidelines today. I say this with experience from jr high to college, and assume the pros are no different.

Why do you post this?

Everything you see in life.
EGO
GREED.
MONEY.

The best football players on a team seldom equates to the starters.

oh and...your point about Deuce could be said about many football players each year. No?
