If Jaylon Smith had been healthy entering the draft, I would have been fine taking him over Zeke at #4. If he really is back to his Notre Dame level, he'll be a difference maker. Still, I'll believe it when I see it. For him to return to his old form would really be defying the odds of his injury.

You are the one who asked within the last week why people are penciling him in at safety. I was answering the question you asked...

I know he covered the slot a bit, especially out of necessity once Scandrick got hurt. But he definitely played a ton of safety last year. He's listed as a safety on our depth chart. He's been running with the 1s at safety in practice. And we are deep at CB, while thin at safety. The tea leaves are pretty clear on this one.

I don't know what the snap breakdown was, but if you look at his highlights, most of them came at safety. He was definitely not exclusively a slot corner.

I think it's about time to move on here. I'd like to see Gallup, Brown, and Wilson battle it out for meaningful snaps next to Hurns and Bease. Throw the kids into the fire.

What do you mean an "Anquan Bolden like leap"? Bolden was a star out of the gate.

That is complete overkill. What on Earth could fill up so many pages on something like this?

Yeah, the worst case scenario is what? He gets hurt and we are in the exact same position we are now. Best case we get a really good player and locker room guy at a position of need. Yes please.

Delanie Walker was #72. Bahahahaha

This would be a really good addition.

The guy with a clear HOF trajectory at #71 is clearly absurd.

“Anyone can have a good season. But a good play? Only legends can do that.”

Being the #2 TE in yards and receptions behind only Tony Gonzales the year before wasn’t enough to convince you?

I will never forget Jason Witten coming back after 1 week and playing with his jaw wired shut. He's been an all-timer since he was a rookie. Really going to miss that guy.

I'm 5 episodes into this thing now, here are some thoughts: 1) As someone who consumes nearly 100% of all legitimate Cowboys reporting and media (and I'm sure I'm not alone on this board), this has been a really great watch. I was a little bit worried that it might be watered down for the least-common-denominator fans, and while there is some of that, there is also a lot of insight and visibility into things we'd never get to see. I highly recommend this for people to watch. 2) It's hard not to love Dak. The guy is a leader. I know he isn't perfect yet, but I really hope he can take the next step in his career this year. 3) The Atlanta game, my god. I forgot how egregious the lack of adjustments were. They knew Chaz was going to be the starter all week, he was getting absolutely smoked, and they gave him no help. If you want to make a list of indictments on this staff on offense, that game has to be #1. 4) Losing Tyron and Lee was brutal. We went from completely dominating KC, to getting our doors blown off by Atlanta. Those two guys turned our team from a really good one to a really bad one. Has to make you feel better about this season. If healthy, we are really good. Even if we aren't healthy, we seem to have the depth to withstand it. 5) Jason Witten is a huge loss for the locker room.
