Stop wasting time shopping around that waste dump of a team, organization and city and go after Patrick Queen. I don't want their rejects.

But the Eagles rejected Patrick Queen in the 2020 draft.

I believe Tyron wants to finish his career in Dallas and I would be ok with brining him back cheap and in a backup role. The Cowboys without a doubt need a young guy to groom for LT. But having Tyron as a backup would be ok with me.

I think (hope) this is all a part of negotiations. If this happens though and Tyron signs elsewhere I will blame Stephen Jones.

The fact that they don’t already have a future LT on the roster is why I think Tyron will still be back. Tyler Smith made All Pro at LG so I don’t think they move him to LT. Regardless if they do or not though I think they will draft OL with their 1st pick (I still prefer. Enter Jackson Powers-Johnson.

The Ravens didn't want Queen either. They wanted Jordyn Brooks instead.

Unless Queen signs with Seattle or stays in Baltimore, he won't be nearly as productive. The Chargers could be a fit as well in that scheme.

Smith has been too injury prone the last 3 yeas and he is way too expensive for what we get out of him now. Cut bit. IMHo he is cashed.

Right if Tyron resigns though he wouldn’t be expensive. 2 years $20M maybe. For a bridge LT that was an All Pro last year, that’s more than reasonable. Of course they would still need to draft a LT. This draft is deep in OL talent.

Smith had a great year at a low cost. If we could get another year like that I would be happy. The problem is that we can’t count on that. The cowboys were probably very fortunate to get 13 games.
Got to move on at some point.

I do understand that you have to move on at some point though. I just hate going into the draft having to fill a need. They tend to reach and make bad picks when they draft for need over best player available.

Totally agree but there are a lot of tackles in the draft.
Plus they always have the option to put Tyler at left.

You mean like DT and especially LB. And that's overlooking QB and Head Coach.

I think we’re all about to be really disappointed. The Cowboys are not going to target any of the top tier FA’s. They have about 6-7 starting positions they need to fill and only have 3 picks in the top 3 rounds to fill those needs with. And don’t be surprised if those top 3 picks all go on offense. They likely won’t draft their first defensive player until round 5.

Does it really matter who the Cowboys draft? Seriously, Dak and McCarthy are coming back so it will be another wasted season.

I guess Jerry thinks his Cowboys will win by shoot outs next season with Dak. :rofl: Three straight 12 win seasons and nothing to show for it. I don't see it getting better.

You don’t draft for one year. Maybe this is Dak and MM last year so wouldn’t it be nice to have an all pro tackle on a rookie deal?

That vision should include drafting well.

You trying to put words in my mouth? Just because I don't agree with your vision doesn't mean my version doesn't mean not drafting well.

The Dallas defense is in shambles. That should be the priority. Unless you think the Cowboys can effectively be a dominating run stuffing team playing 180lbs safeties and CB's at LB.
