What part of T-O, Sherry Glenn, and Deadslow sound like good young drafted players to you? Okay, so they drafted Julius Jones. Fine, we drafted Ladell Betts, and guess what, they're having nearly statistically identical years despite Ladell having 7 fewer starts. Oh, and Ladell's averaging half a yard more per carry. Next.

Oh right, Jason Witten. Good call. 600 yards and a TD this year. If only we had a guy who could do that!! Chris Cooley only has 528 yards on the season. Oh wait, but 5 TD's. Next.

Romo? Fine, sure, but if Bledsoe hadn't been so awful he would never have seen the light of day, and realistically we have no idea whether he's going to be decent or suck. Started off hot, sucks lately. *Shrug*. By the way, Tony Romo's passer rating in December: 58.4. Jason Campbell's passer rating in December: 54.6.

We've got more drafted young talent (Dock, Jansen, and Samuels) on the O-Line than they do (Gurode and Flozell Adams were both drafted, but Adams is like 140 years old), and assuming some of our recent projects like McIntosh and Golston step up and start next year, we could have 5 drafted Redskins on the starting D (Marshall, Golston, McIntosh, Taylor, and Rogers). The Cowboys have 6 (Davis, Williams, James, Ware, Spears, and Canty)

So, yeah. We really suck at drafting and the Cowboys are awesome.
No. I'm not high. You just said it. They drafted on defense. Your forgetting T. Neuman. Sorry but I would take those 7 over our 5. That's 7 drafted players that are starting. Plus they are all young and only going to get better. Marshall is not a NFL caliber starting MLB at 225. What FB fears hitting a small undersized MLB? Goldston and Rocky are projects so far. And I would say Rogers has been a bust. Taylor is only good on intimidating and hitting people. Very poor in coverage. They are simply better players. Dallas stops the run better and rushes the passer MUCH better. And that is how you win in the NFL. Sometimes the truth hurts.
