Kinda expected this, but the Cowboys?! Gross. Well, best of luck to Lance, and I can’t wait to see Purdy tear it up this year!

    I generally like our front office and don’t want them to get pushed out or anything, but their drafting in the first round has been absolutely atrocious. Thomas, Foster, Kinlaw, and now Lance (with the Lance pick effectively consuming 3 first rounds). I hope this disaster causes some changes in their scouting/drafting because they are wasting serious draft capital year after year.

    We paid three first-rounds for Lance, and now we’ve got a 4th round pick.

    I agree that we shouldn’t look at sunk cost, but I can’t help complaining how foolish the decision is

    The draft is always a gamble anyway… we lost on drafting Trey, but we won on drafting Purdy. The fact that we’ve been competitive on the field throughout Trey era really takes the sting out of the picks we spent to bring him here.

    pats fan messaged me this morning offering a 4th…thought he was joking. really wish they had kept lance around, was hoping to finally see him on the field with CmC at some point this year.

    most frustrating part is definitely that he’s a cowgirl, they traded him and now i can’t even root for him! dammit.
