    I have seen Jerry say they were happy with the defensive line. And they did have some injuries in the offensive line last year. It's easy to say Dallas doesn't need a Tight End when they have Witten. They guy never misses a game and always produces. Still if he went down with a serious injury, Dallas is more than likely screwed. Phillips has looked good, but I don't think he is close to Witten. And Dallas supposedly drafted another Witten in Martellus Bennet a few years ago. That didn't work out. So I wouldn't kill them if they went after a tight end in the 2nd round.

    But Janoris Jenkins is still out there. Would you rather have Mike Jenkins or him? And how early will that Fleener go? Trade Jenkins and like a 4th? to move up? It might be pretty hard for Dallas to get back into the 2nd round.

    I don't think Jenkins and a 4th gets you high enough in the 2nd to get Janoris Jenkins(who I do not want as I think he is Pacman Jr.) or Fleener. Both will go in the 1st half of round 2.

    I'm always baffled that people try to blame Romo for all of Dallas's troubles. Good Lord, the guy has won playing injured cause his Oline isn't worth a crap for half of his career. He has won inspite of them. He made Laurent Robinson look like a Hall of Famer last year after nobody wanted him. Dez was hobbled all year long and Miles missed half the season, yet he still put up very very good numbers. The defense(mainly the secondary) has been the problem the last few years. Now that I hopefully won't have to watch a CB like Terrence Newman get torched at least once a game, I think the secondary will be much better. Carr and Claiborne are enormous improvements. If Dallas can find a couple serviceable Safeties, move Tyron Smith to LT, and either move Free to RT or get rid of that waste of space, they will be in good shape.

    Yup he's won regular season games, I'll give him that. How many playoff games has he won now? I'm sure none of those picks and fumbles in the playoffs were his fault. He may be playing with bad guys, but Romo sure doesn't help himself with how he performs in the playoffs.

  • That Wisconsin Center Konz is still there. I wouldn't mind Dallas trying to trade up for him.
