Do we have a DL?
Flashes a little in camp and pre-season and then disappears during the season. Will make a play here or there, but will spend more time on IR than the field. Another wasted 1st round pick it appears.
where else have we wasted a first rounder? we have hit on all other 1st round picks with this regime
It's more accurate to say we haven't completely ****ed up our other 1st round picks. That has a lot to do with this front offices strategy. They play it safe. We took Long 1st over-all, good pick but you should be able to hit on a LT #1 over-all, that's nothing to be applauded. We took Davis 25th which was exactly who I wanted and couldnt have been more happy about that pick at the time. We needed a CB and we got the most talented CB in the draft, who turned out to be the 1st REAL CB taken in that draft. Trading down from 12th to take Odrick and Misi has been a colossal ****-up to this point. We were in dire need of play-makers on both sides of the ball and had plenty of choices at 12. I thought Earl Thomas was a no-brainer but we could have gone plenty of directions with that pick instead of getting 2 rotational/depth guys. Now to Pouncey who has played very well as a rookie C. On the surface it looks like a great pick, and it would be had this pick not been used 15th over-all on a team void of play-makers. If we're a playoff team, picking in the 20s, sure this would be a great pick. Picking 15th, its just a safe, solid pick. Our front office needs to grow some balls if they're even going to be around after this year. We need play-makers on both sides of the ball.
but Dez Bryant's MOTHER could be a prostitute...can't take a play maker but we can draft a cornfed loser.
Here is a fact Long was the 1st overall pick, that is a hard pick to screw up (unless your the raiders) add Merling to that mix because he was the 32nd pick that year. This FO is not good and people should stop defending them IMO.Let's see, the other first rounders have been Long (three pro bowls), Vontae Davis (developed very well in spite of this year's early struggles and is a solid corner) and Pouncey who's looked quite good considering his first game was against two pro bowl interior d-linemen. Given that Odrick missed almost the entire year last year AND actually had a pick against Brady, perhaps we can give the guy that's played all of what, 4 GAMES in the NFL? - a break. Get your facts straight.
