I'll say this much: Mike Vanderjagt, Tony Romo, Terrell Owens, Felix Jones, Dez Bryant, Pac Man Jones, Roy Williams and now Morris Claiborne have all been the "one player who will put the Cowboys over the top" during the last 10 years or so lol...

Or better known as the Annual Cowboys Hype-a-thon lol...
First we have an article claiming that Claiborne is the #1 rookie to make an impact this season and the "missing...
I can't help but wonder how Portis, Moss and Cooley would have faired on legitimate offenses with franchise QBs instead of the dreck they played with too many times with the Skins. Cooley may not have been much different but Portis and Moss definitely could have produced at even higher levels.
I don't think you could bank on ANY drafted LB being able to reach London's leve of achievement, regardless of where he was drafted...his career is rare.
And it's more than a bit ironic that the best two MLBs the Skins have had over the last 12+ years were both undrafted free agents lol...not...
Yep...and here's the thing: if someone offered a 1st and 3rd (potentially 2nd) rounder for Orakpo, that essentially means he has come close to outperforming his draft status so far...so if Orakpo is now worth a 1st and 2nd round pick, we definitely need to keep him lol...5-11 teams need to keep...
Two ways to answer this:
1) Everyone (except a bonafide franchise QB) should be open to being traded...someone is stupid enough to offer up a goldmine for one of your better players, you have to at least consider it.
2) That being said, the saying "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"...
Yep, exactly...Orakpo is one of the better LBs in terms of generating QB pressure, even if that pressure doesn't always result in a sack for him. He hasn't hit his ceiling yet, and hasn't even hit is prime...trading him for the comfort of telling yourself "at least we have a 1st round pick in...
I believe Luck is not attending OTAs due to school requirements or something like that...so he's not as visible or available as Griffin is right now. And because of that, the media is flocking to Griffin a little more than they would if Luck were with the Colts and impressing everyone (as he...
"Sales" would be through the roof no matter what lol...(and already are). He won't slip off the radar if he's not out constantly doing promotional signings and such.
It could be that Shanahan doesn't see any problem so far with RG3's off-field activities, and actually could have been expecting...
