textaz03 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Like I said in a few Twitter feeds today, Jerry and Steven Jones are not interested in fixing this defense. They are banking on Dak out scoring opponents. Plain and simple. It’s the only logical explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to give them too much credit, but tbh the defense they have now just kind of needs to play better, specifically Jaylon and LVE. The FO obviously doesn't care much about 1-tech and safety, but at CB, DE and LB I get the reasoning behind waiting out the market and/or restocking in the draft. Still have 10 picks to work with + a strong chance at comps next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they need to beef up the NT position to keep em bodies off the backers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the logic behind this, it's certainly true to an extent, but it's worth remembering Woods was the primary NT in 2018, the last time our defense was good. It's not ideal, but we still can/should expect a better unit next year if they get a few other things right. Simplifying the scheme and going back to the same playcalls/terminology as the Marinelli years could also go a long way towards getting better production out of our LBs.

Opportunity knocks and Dallas isn't home again. They going live by the sword, die by the sword ..... striking gold in every draft rd and cheap vets. It's work so well this far, lets do it some more.

WizardHawk Posted March 16, 2021 Author Share Posted March 16, 2021 Interesting. I don't think it really changes my opinion on bringing him in, but it does put a different spin on things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt79511 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Between Adoree's release and other players' contracts expiring, this FA period could essentially serve as a do-over for Dallas' 2017 draft. IIRC they used nearly all their visits on DEs and CBs as both groups had strong depth. Still, we're probably not getting more than stopgaps shopping at the bargain bin, as usual.
