    Sheena: Asked about his confidence, Bryce Young says his confidence is in the Lord.

    Nothing wrong with Bryce having his faith and being proud of it at all. My issue is that the Lord isn't throwing passes for him on Sundays. He HAS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND PUT IT ON HIMSELF TO GET BETTER, BE MORE AGGRESSIVE, FIGHT HARDER, HAVE MORE FIRE IN HIM etc..... the Lord isn't going to do that for him as there are guys on the other team praying for them to have a great game as well. He should pray that the Lord keeps him safe out there and helps him unleash the monster within him when he plays fearless. The Lord is not dropping back throwing the football, he must and he must take over and be a leader but I just don't feel like that's going to happen with him. Nice guy but not at NFL quarterback.

    That is correct...

    I think someone like the Rams would trade us a late round pick with the idea that McVay could fix him.

    Let him sit behind Stafford or something.

    They have their own  to fix...

    Welcome back Ian Thomas... I guess. Hopefully we can get some production out of Miles Sanders this season. Zavala was horrendous last season, so he needs to step it up. D.J who knows? A lot of question marks going into this season, but Young will decide our fate.

    He already decided our fate...just need to let it play out.

    How short a leash will Young be on?

    The issue is that there aren’t any elite QB prospects next year. I think his leash is longer than a lot of fans realize…

    Yes this was the year...

    At best we will get 7 wins with Young in any given year.This is face saving mode for the next 2 yrs as we wait for a chance to get a top QB.

    I was just going to put this on the thread created for our second round draft pick, but I thought this would make you feel better about the pick, especially if you despise everything Cowboy-related, including Jerry Jones. 

    First, some background that I heard on TV but have not researched.  Jonathan Brooks' surgery was completed by Dallas Cowboys' doctor Dan Cooper.  Jones would have had a ton of inside information about the knee and he wanted Brooks BADLY.  Now, Jones mentions the interview--think about the character and class it takes to get an owner to say these things publicly:

    "Having already addressed their offensive line by taking Oklahoma tackle Tyler Guyton in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones might have spoiled their next selection.

    Speaking to reporters, Jones said Texas running back Jonathon Brooks is "high, high, high" on the Cowboys' draft board going into day two.

    'In my 30 years I thought it was the best interview that I ever interviewed with a player," Jones added. "He's outstanding. And he's a great football player.'

    Brooks to the Cowboys has been one of the most popular player-team pairings since before the draft even started."

    If Dallas was the only competition, I do not know why we moved back up to 46 from 52 when Dallas picked at 56.  However, maybe Dallas was trading up as well.  They seemed to get a good deal (compared to what we got from the Rams)--and there are not many RBs in this draft who are elite, can protect the QB, and can catch the ball like Brooks.  So I am OK with the trade, I guess.

    Here is what the NFL Network analysis of Day 2 said about Brooks:

    "Had Brooks not suffered a torn ACL in November, he might have been a first-round pick. He's a shifty, speedy back who can hit the hole and go, and he should be Carolina's starter before long. I thought they might go center here, but Brooks makes sense for a team that lacked offensive juice." 

    For the record, I did not want the Panthers to draft a RB back in 2017 (or so) when they took McCaffrey.  So there's that.

    Or we got suckered...so there's that.
