Jerry + Wade = Zero!

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

jerry-wadeDo these two idiots look like they know what they are doing?!?  A Superbowl contending team previously, the Dallas Cowboys have been effectively dismantled by soft coaching and softer heads.  The Cowboys wasted their 2009 NFL draft!  True enough the actual draft occurred for the Cowboys when they traded for wide receiver Roy Williams last year, but a team that faltered and subsequently failed in 2008 needed to do something last weekend.  The trendy preaseason Superbowl pick last year, Dallas stumbled in December again and completely missed the playoffs.  After listening to all the nonsense coming out of Big D this year, one would expect an effective and well thought out draft.  Armed with 11 picks, the Cowboys had enough to move around and grab a couple of impact players despite not having a first round pick.  Instead, the Cowboys played the “value” card and completely traded out of day 1.  What a crock!  The Patriots and Belichek played the value card also and, oh by the way, made four 2nd round picks.  Four!  That’s outstanding if you are a Patriots fan and troubling for everyone else.  Meanwhile Jerry and Wade traded down, reached in the third round for more Linebackers (Wade’s favorite position), and picked up a dozen no-names and stiffs.  What the ___?!  I almost puked when the ESPN roving reporter stated the the Cowboys felt that the draft was a crapshoot (my word) and that you miss on half the draft picks, so you need to go for quantity versus quality… Huh?!  Did the Eagles or Patriots, Steelers or Packers feel like they needed to make 12 picks to improve their teams?  Heck you don’t even need to go out of the division…  The Eagles got Jeremy Maclin, the Redskins got Brian Orakpo and the Giants got Hakeem Nicks.  Each team addressed major needs and helped themselves out; the Cowboys?  They picked up special teams guys and back-ups.  The Cowboys had great drafts with Jerry and Jimmy and Jerry and Bill.  The thing Jerry needs to remember…  He had nothing to do with it!
