Yea its a little premature, but I think the oline looks clearly MUCH better. Need to see more of a lot of the rest 

Yeah, outside the offensive line I am not sure any of these are tracking the way you are describing them. Way more questions than answers in that list.

This is a post season thread with 17 games of ammo behind it.

I think Diontae can be a 1b guy the hope is XL can be that 1a. diontae is underrated imo

Too soon. The oline looks a lot better but the D is missing a lot of what it took to sign those 2 guys. The center is still healthy and that's not a guarantee to stay that way. Everything can be looked at like that right now. They kept Sanders and Thomas when they had the June 1st option for both come to mind. 

Also the handling of Young will define both the GM and HC going forward. They did right to get him sat but there is a minefield ahead still. I can say I am a lot more positive than I was coming into the year for either one but there is still a lot to prove.

I agree (and so what if it's too soon?). I think they are building a team. Not a team around Bryce. They're going for a team of dawgs and i think you can see that. 

I'm not sure, but i don't think that BY fits in that category so i'd be surprised if he sticks around.

so that probably means they will be looking for a QB that has that in him. wouldn't necessarily have to be a draft pick, either. the door is wide open i think.

This is calling a lot of shots before many pitches have been thrown.

yep lol.  

We are spending I think more money than anyone on the OL right now.  We should look decent there.  Still got question marks at LT though. 

Dionte sure looks to be here to prove he isn't what the Steelers suggested and thus get a deal elsewhere.  That's generally what we have viewed it as.  A one year pit stop. 

RB has never played a snap.  Who knows about him. 

XL still an unknown (he is my guy though)

we are in a pretty weak cap position given how meh the roster presently sits. 

and it's a QB league.  We got nothing in the works at this point big picture.

Diontae isn't really a top tier one. Good player, no doubt but there aren't many teams he would be a #1. 

XL....well.....I have a pretty low ceiling for him personally so I just hope he can clear those bars. He's a pretty big project for an older player. I hope we have a coaching staff that can develop him.

Yeah, I think the odds of locking up Diontae beyond this season are slim to none. No matter, it gives our guys like Mingo and XL a measuring stick to compare against.

-Fixed the offensive line

-got a borderline number 1 WR for Donte Jackson

- then replaced Donte with arguably a better CB or at the least equal for a 6th round draft pick

- drafted XL who looks likes hes gonna be a stud

- drafted a stud LB ( trevin wallace) 

- drafted our future at RB

people act like Dan and Canales were building for Bryce, but the reality is they are building for any QB to be successful. this has never been about Bryce, its been about building a winning football franchise again and if Bryce was gonna work then cool but if not then they find someone who will. Andy is that dude now.

have to give Dan Morgan and Canales their props I think they are off to a great start 

Hey Dan

I'll give you the first 3, the last 3 are big reaches at this point even tho i hope you are right. I like what he's done, getting the OL fixed in 1 offseason is huge. Don't forget to also add fleecing the Rams out of a 2nd round pick.

Oline is good.

Dionte is good.

XL passes the eye test.  Needs more time.

Tevin and Brooks are unknowns but if the other moves are any indication, they could work out too.

The main thing is, Dan and Dave have restored a little hope to the franchise and fan base.

    • Keep my wife’s name out your mouth!
    • Yeah I'm not into college as much, so I admit not to having my own opinion about him coming out. But strictly watching ESPN shows, and going off of commentary at the time..It was a lot more 50/50 even on this board than what people like to remember and admit.  Yes many people had doubts and questions, but MANY people also thought he could possibly be the one. I was only versed enough to know that it was between he and CJ, but most pundits made it sound like either way we had a QB of the future, just different skillsets/traits.
    • Jonathan Mingo to the Cowboys Cowboys receive: WR Jonathan Mingo, 2025 seventh-round pick Panthers receive: 2025 fourth-round pick  Dallas Cowboys: C Leave it to Jerry Jones to wait until after Dak Prescott is injured to go after another receiver. To be fair, the Dallas Cowboys have a real need for the position. CeeDee Lamb is a superstar, but Jalen Tolbert and Brandin Cooks haven't been the needle movers that the Cowboys were hoping for. Making a trade for a receiver wasn't a bad move, but the player that the Cowboys gave up three rounds of value to acquire is questionable. Jonathan Mingo checked a lot of physical and athletic boxes as the 40th-overall pick in 2023. Unfortunately, the 6-foot-2, 220-pound wideout has struggled to be a productive receiver at the NFL level. Some of that has to do with playing for the Carolina Panthers, but Mingo has seriously lacked efficiency at the position. Mingo has yet to record his first NFL touchdown, catching 55 passes for 539 yards. Per TruMedia, he has just 0.74 yards per route run in his career, which ranks 177th out of 186 receivers with at least 50 targets since the start of the 2023 season.Even though Mingo fills a need, that's a lot of value to give up for a receiver that's struggled so much at the NFL level. The good news is that he still has a couple more years on his rookie deal, so at least the Cowboys are getting a cheap developmental project to learn from a star like Lamb. Carolina Panthers: A Instead of trying to hold onto Mingo, the Panthers took what they could get, and that turned out to be way more than expected. Mingo quickly became expendable thanks to the rapid ascension of rookie receiver Xavier Legette. Along with a larger-than-life personality, Legette has hauled in 26 catches for 244 yards and four touchdowns. Three of those touchdowns have come in the last four games, with Legette becoming more and more of a focal point in Carolina's offense. For a team that needs to capitalize as much as possible on draft assets, moving up three rounds in the draft to move on from a disappointing draft pick feels like an absolute win. https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-trade-deadline-2024-grading-every-move/
