  1. Khalil Herbert for a 7 seems like a bargain for the Bengals, except he's in his contract year. Still, Cowboys really could have used a running back that has some ability to break off a few good runs, especially in the current shitshow of their situation in 2024.
  2. Bottom line is, it is extremely unlikely to be of any significant help to the Cowboys making the playoffs this season. So it defies even Jerry's own broken logic. There are longshot odds that he could turn out to be a productive player at some point next season, but then he's up for a new contract after 2025, and there goes your pick and your player.
  3. If you look at his draft profile he's exactly the type of WR prospect the Cowboys really need in the mix. Except he's not the type of prospect the shitass Panthers needed, so...
  4. That fourth rounder could probably have gotten them a starting guard to replace Martin next year, if they knew how to draft guards after the first round.
  5. They should be selling, not acquiring other garage sale leftovers for picks. But hey, he was once a 2nd round draft pick, so it's a bargain, right? Championship...
  6. They could do OK with Cooper if the OL, running game and D weren't total crap.
  7. Don't confuse my comments with optimism. I'm just worn out as fuck with this particular version of Cowboys dumpsterfire which was doomed from day fucking 1. Time to move on, and it's going to happen. But it should be noted that the Cowboys generally do pretty well drafting in the top 1/3rd of the first round, which is a far lesser risk factor. Down in the 18-32 area, generally not so much. We all know they are going to mostly soil themselves in rounds 2-4.
  8. They don't need to tank, they're just not going to be very good. Of course, they may somewhat rally for Cooper Rush as they seem to have done in the past. But it likely won't be enough to keep them out of a top 12 pick.
  9. Cowboys are currently sitting at number 11 in the draft positioning, and likely rising quickly in the coming weeks. Frankly, I'm looking forward to a new start with a top 10 pick and a new coaching staff. Four picks in round five will be fun.
  10. Another qb isn't going to help. It would just lock the Cowboys in with another record salary to deal with. Build up the positions they have neglected or just failed to fill with poor drafting. Guyton was a terrible pick, at least in round 1 to plug in at LT, which is something he wasn't. Martin is showing why smarter teams don't draft guards in the first round. Most of the league's good starting guards were taken in mid rounds, and I don't think any NFL team has won championships by having the best guards in the league since Lombardi's Packers. You just need a really good cohesive OL unit. Better coaches know how to utilize mediocre OL talent into a functional unit. The Cowboys take the highest drafted and highest paid OL group and mold them into a mediocre unit.
  11. He'll probably spend half of that time on IR getting paid, so don't feel too sorry.
  12. The fact that a spare like Turpin is the second best WR on the team speaks volumes about how horribly the Cowboys have stocked the position. Tolbert is terribly disappointing. Dak seems to be allergic to him. He should be getting 8 targets per game by now, even without a lost cause game script. especially with the shitty running game.
  13. I wouldn't be shocked to see McCarthy fired this week. The fake punt call, sending out 12 players on 4th and 1 and not recognizing. He's gone after this year anyway.
  14. Pamela Oliver is looking like she's about ready for a regular seat on "The VIew."
  15. Rangers are still defending champs...for a little while.
  16. NGGD? I picked up this 60s Kay guitar at Goodwill for $8. I liked the vibe of it and couldn't resist. Even the action of the 4 playable-ish strings and the sound wasn't bad at all. Just needs some minor repair to tuning keys, nut and bridge and it's a cheapass banger player for out in the barn. Might even be worth a few bucks, who the hell knows. I probably didn't lose on it.
  17. Offensive line sucks. Defensive line sucks. Either Tolbert sucks or the coaching staff can't figure out how to use him properly while defenses are concentrating on Lamb. Doesn't seem all that complicated. Maybe partly both, but I think the scheming is the bigger problem. Even a schlub should get a few catches as the second wide out in a game like this. GM definitely sucks. Niners were definitely beatable, about as beatable as they are ever going to see any time soon. Coaches suck.
  18. I went through the jury duty voire dire bullshit once. Lawyer just asked me if there was any conflict with me showing up on Monday for court. I told him I had a guided fishing trip lined up with some folks, which I did. He replied, "well, I I'm not going fishing, either." I served for four freakin' days. His side lost.
  19. I'm just glad it isn't the obnoxiousness of the shitty Subway Series bullshit all over again. Fuck that shit.
  20. Have to deduct a point from this one for not having the tranny OU cheerleader in that group.
