On Friday. Day after the game is played. Dont know if Ill go with a whack stream on Thursday or watch it the next day.


McGee and Tebow. Classic battle between captain check-down and Sargent 4 yard keepers.

And Its our chance to get a good look at the Broncos rookie Von Miller. Although it would have been Patrick Peterson or Marcel Dareus had the 1st round not broken the way it did.

fyi, on the cowboys draft board we had a certain running back penciled in at our pick and tyron smith going higher.....

thats on the board I saw from the blitz...not sure what that board meant exactly....so we must have wanted that certain running back pretty bad.

I thought the trade back up into the 1st talk was for Cam Jordan.


I dont get their fascination w/ RB's. There are always a ton floating around every year and most arent worth giving a 2nd contract to.


I may have mentioned this once. But only Minny and the Titans would not want a do-over on their pick of a RB in R1.


The 3 JAG's who went in the top 5 about 6 years ago all just signed 1 year/vet minimum deals. A guy like Tyron, if he pans out, will be anchoring our line for 12 years.

Some have said it was Cameron Jordan we were trying to jump back into the 1st for, while many others have said it was Mark Ingram.
I would have loved Jordan because he's a 3-4 DE who can actually rush the QB. Ingram is a solid RB, will probably be a very dependable back. I wouldn't have liked that move as much.

One RB who will be worth a high pick next year is Ingram's back-up Trent Richardson. He is going to be a force.

I didn't know pics of our draft board were released again, I would be very curious to see it. Seeing our board last year was a great insight into the way we evaluate players.

3 years/12 TD's. Keep it up champ.

Maybe Im being unfair b/c I didnt like him in the draft, but there had to be something better around that pick.

Cant believe Ingram and Tyron was even a debate. Someone in that room just devalues linemen way too much

the picture the blitz captured had some sort of mock of what they thought would happen like last year...they had tyron going at like 4 or 5 like they wouldnt get an opportunity to get him.

Did you know instead of Jamarcus Russel and Darren McFadden the Raiders pretty much could have had Calvin Johnson and Matt Ryan?

I didnt put it up this year because I hate the pro football talks of the world that use it to spend countless hours saying we are the worst organization on the planet etc.....its just a distraction and I dont want it ending up at PFT and contributing to that asshole's web hits every day.

Got you. To me, someone who is always critical of GM Jerry, it was really educational. If you go back and compare the list to what all of the Cowboy insiders were saying before the draft, you can tell who knows their shit and who was full of it. It seemed we had some really low grades on some offensive linemen who went much higher. Doesn't mean they were right or wrong but it shows why we haven't been hitting on offensive linemen (besides Doug Free) lately. We just didn't grade them as high as other teams did.

Plus, last year's list proved Hostile was dead wrong about a few players so that was a plus.

Did you know that instead of Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith, we could've had Jeff George and Blaire Thomas?


Thank goodness we have one hell of a GM.
