April 30, 20223 yr So they got an OT from North Dakota in the 5th for Amari Cooper. Edited April 30, 20223 yr by mdmost
April 30, 20223 yr I think Kolar is a better pass catcher who played with a MUCH better QB. I think Ferguson will be perfectly fine as TE2 with potential to be at least Dalton when all said and done.
April 30, 20223 yr Matt Waletzko OL goes #155 for Cowboys. Good size -- project Edited April 30, 20223 yr by LTtxfan

If he had any trade value multiple teams would have been involved bidding against each other. He went to the fucking Browns. Pretty much all the WRs that got traded for high picks got massive extensions. No one was going to give Cooper an extension, especially not after paying his 20 mil salary. I don't understand why people keep harping on how low of a pick they got for him. The larger the market and demand, the higher the pick. Clearly no one thought he was worth a high pick, or they would've offered one.
April 30, 20223 yr Felt like we reached hard for picks 1 and 2…but at least they know that the lines are needed…especially OL
April 30, 20223 yr Need another d lineman and db in 5th. No need of a RB in this draft. They’re dime a dozen.

April 30, 20223 yr 2 minutes ago, futureman said: and they let everyone know about it. Everyone knew even without them saying anything. It's very simple, no team other than the Browns was willing to pay him 20 mil + 5th round pick. They were trying to trade him for months. If another team valued him more, he would've been traded to them. The teams waiting around for him to be cut clearly didn't value him enough to secure his services with a pick higher than the 5th round. An aging and often injured WR who disappears half the season is not going to command a premium in the trade market.
April 30, 20223 yr Just had spinal fusion surgery... Herniated Disc, likely won't play in 2022 LB Damone Clark pick #176 LSU Edited April 30, 20223 yr by LTtxfan
April 30, 20223 yr I don’t get it. This feels like the worst pick of the Dallas draft so far. Clark underwent spinal fusion surgery on March 24, and he is likely to miss the entire 2022 season. He is expected to make a full recovery, however. -- Steve Muench Edited April 30, 20223 yr by lilMAC25

April 30, 20223 yr You know Damone I always stick up for you. They say oh, Damone that loud mouth - and they say that a lot. I say oh, no you just don't know Damone. I mean when they call you an idiot, I say Damone's not an idiot. Well, you know something maybe they know you pretty good. Maybe I'm just starting to find out.

April 30, 20223 yr Actually one of the better picks. Clark was a very high LB prospect, would have been drafted maybe 2nd round if not for the likely hood of missing next season.

But good luck to him for sure and his spine
April 30, 20223 yr It's like they made their traditional second round pick with a 5th round comp pick. I call that progress.
April 30, 20223 yr Cowboys aren't thinking win now, trying to get value. What a shit show lolThey used one of their four 5th round picks on him, I got no problem with it.
April 30, 20223 yr The Cowboys seem to be really sold on Biadasz, who has literally cost them games getting trown around like a rag doll. I guess this is the year he really puts it all together.

People know Dallas front office is a bunch of hillbilly morons and are easy to fleece on both sides of trades. The same front office who gave up what they did for Joey Galloway and then Roy Williams. I don't care what you say, you can not convince me a talent like Cooper can not get more than a 5th round pick. They knew Dallas did not want to keep him and were desperate. So they offloaded him at the very first offer they got. Cleveland got a damn good player for absolutely nothing. 5th round picks are extreme long shots to be worth a damn. Spin it all you want. This front office is dogshit.

April 30, 20223 yr Actually one of the better picks. Clark was a very high LB prospect, would have been drafted maybe 2nd round if not for the likely hood of missing next season. Spinal fusion is not a sprained knee. He may have no football future.

And yes, it's a long recovery, but if he does recover, then you got yourself a starting level talent. 24 minutes ago, Zeus said: Injury prone LB, already out for his first season, what could go wrong? I don't believe he had any major injuries beyond the herniated disc. 5th/6th rounds are where you pick risk and stash players, I have no problems with. Name the past 5 5th rounders?

This front office is dogshit. The front office is dogshit, but you're living in a fantasy if you think they took the first offer real quick. It was known after the end of the season that he was gone. Plenty of teams had the opportunity to get him and they didn't. Why? Because he wasn't worth more than a 5th round pick. Trades are about supply and demand, or getting lucky and finding an idiot team to pay way more than they're worth. His salary was becoming fully guaranteed so they didn't have the luxury of waiting around forever until they got a better offer.
April 30, 20223 yr So a fifth round pick is essentially without value when it is Dallas acquiring one, but when they spend one on an injury risk lottery ticket then it is a wasted pick?
April 30, 20223 yr 27 minutes ago, Texzilla58 said: Spinal fusion is not a sprained knee. He may have no football future. If so, he'll just be the average Cowboys 5th round pick.

I guess everyone else is wrong.
April 30, 20223 yr Again, the huge mistake with Cooper was not the shitty return for letting him go. It was the first round pick and massive contract that it cost them for a player that was never going to live up to the fantasy pipe dream the fell for. His history was always inconsistency, having off years, off games, high maintenance and rarely a guy that takes over games when they need it the most. He was always more of a Jarvis Landry type with Hollywood marketing. The Raiders knew that.
April 30, 20223 yr Author Devin Harper from the Pokes. Dude can run..... May just end up being a backup and ST player, but has some skills. A little older, but has good upside.

It's just funny seeing the same narrative over and over that the Cowboys could've gotten more for the trade. From who? Some imaginary team? There hasn't been a single shred of evidence that anyone else was willing to pay more. Anything else is just straight wishcasting. Something is only worth what someone else is willing to pay for it.
April 30, 20223 yr 41 minutes ago, Texzilla58 said: Spinal fusion is not a sprained knee. He may have no football future. He is expected to make a full recovery. It's only because he had his surgery so late before the draft that he's not going to be ready for 2022. Even if it goes wrong and he doesn't, it's a late 5, a good time to roll the dice, when even the vast majority healthy players tend to not crack an NFL lineup.

April 30, 20223 yr Author Unless we trade back in, looks like we're done for the draft. Think their day 3 may have been the best in terms of value. Still need a ton before the season to really sure up some units including secondary, DL, OT, and RB.
April 30, 20223 yr Here's another way to look at the Damone Clark situation. He was playing with a herniated disc for no telling how long, and nobody had any idea while he was kicking ass and breaking tackling records. They discovered the issue with a routine MRI at the combine, in which he had a standout workout performance. Edited April 30, 20223 yr by DougO
April 30, 20223 yr I like the WR pick for where it was made, should contribute early and has good potential. The rest feel like they were mostly overdrafted. Didn't get a lot of value for where they picked in most rounds. Hopefully, they go all out in the UDFA market and hopefully pick up some depth in the next stage of free agency.
