    If Hue considers them franchise quarterback worthy- we're taking one of them.

    Seeing a lot of these Hue references lately... When did Hue become GM?

    And do folks realize it was his GM moves that got him bounced out of OAK? He did have that title out there... officially...

    Picking up Carson Palmer wasn't that bad. 😛 Sashi is going to trade down until we have every pick in the seventh round. Hey- they're cheap, with lots of potential.

  • I would be willing to take a chance on cook in the 4th or 5th round but not before. He has many things that need much correcting.

    I don't know what round would be right for him. That said, despite playing through some injuries - has he been less consistent than Kirk Cousins was there during the span he was their starter? A throwing arm can look pretty weak especially if one is playing through an injury driving that.

    Also keep in mind when there's a lot of Ohio State homerism going on - some of this guy's biggest critics could have been in the "Fail for Cardale" Camp that had their wet dream ended like a loud alarm clock early on in the 2016 regular season. Cook has flaws but I don't know that any are absolute show stoppers especially if the same dummy that drafted the Tom Brady nobody on the planet had much interest in is willing to repeat history. At the time, NE already had Bledsoe employed so they could be patient enough to have Brady wear blue jeans to his first 15-16 NFL games while he was taking BB's advice about getting stronger in the weight room. Brady was the 2nd most popular QB on the Michigan Campus to the guy formerly known as the Freshman Sensation so it's really pretty amazing how much things can change over time.

    I would have been OK with Cook instead of Kessler. Correct me if I am wrong, but Cook was available when the Browns took Kessler, no?

    Yes, Cook and Prescott were sitting there.

  • Remember how the cowboys wanted Cook then settled for Prescott? Man I wish we could luck into some players like that.

    LOL! Luck? All that to do is come here and see Dak was being touted by several of us. Only dumb would apply to our FO, not luck.

    Sure. There are enough blind monkeys here that anyone who turns out decent will have had some fans.

    But the Brady argument applies - if the Cowboys knew how good he would have been do they wait until the fourth round? Instead of maybe using their high second round pick on Jaylon Smith? I doubt it. They thought he could be decent and turned out to be a lot better for them.

    I'm saying - when did that last happen for us? What day 3 pick has become an instant starter and rookie of the year candidate at anywhere close to as important a position?
