Is Dak Prescott Setup for Success?

The Dallas Cowboys drafted Dak Prescott in 2016 out of Mississippi State in the 4th round a draft class with quarterbacks including Jared Goff and Carson Wentz.

In year three, you can now make the case that Dak Prescott is under the most pressure he has yet to see ever in his football career. Going into this season he lost his number 1 premiere target in Dez Bryant and has lost one of the greatest tight ends to play the game in Jason Witten to retirement.

Losing such great talent in the passing game you would think the Dallas Cowboys would have a bright plan in line for Dak and the offense but the front office did such a terrible job replacing their two stars that departed. In offseason they acquired Allen Hurns and Deonte Thompson through free agency. They also acquired Michael Gallup who they drafted and Tavon Austin who they traded for during the draft in the 6th round. They still also have Terrance Williams and Cole Beasely.

With most young franchise quarterbacks you see teams flooding their rosters with talent. Jared Goff was 0-7 as a rookie starting for the Los Angeles Rams, yes he was playing under Jeff Fisher and not Sean McVey but the fact of the matter is he didn’t have success  being the first pick of the draft.  Carson Wentz was 7-9 his rookie for the Philadelphia Eagles.  With these two quarterbacks on their first contracts both teams made it their priority to surround it as much talent as possible to contend for a title.

The Rams went out to acquire massive defensive talent in the offseason getting Aqib Taleb, Marcus Peters, and Ndamukong Suh. Also making a strength stronger getting Brandon Cooks a deep threat receiver who will make their offense more explosive. The Eagles knew that their running game was the Achilles hill of the team and that they lacked receivers and help in their secondary. They made it their priority to give Carson Wentz the talent to help the team get to the next level getting Jay Ajayi.

Dallas is making the biggest mistake not gambling for Earl Thomas.

Going into week 1 the Dallas Cowboys are thin at secondary. Two of their safeties,  Xavier Woods and Kavon Frazier  probably won’t be available due to injuries. Woods dealing with a torn hamstring and Frazier has a dislocated shoulder.

Problem with the Cowboys is that they’ve letting go more talent than they’ve acquired refer to my last article Do the Dallas Cowboys Acquire Star Talent AnymoreIt is such a disappointment as a fan to watch falter so early in a new era of the team. You never know when your window is closing as a franchise to win a championship. Dallas has Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott on their rookie contracts while Tank is playing under the franchise tag and has made it clear he won’t play under it again.

Now is the time to gamble in the off-season now that you have a little bit of cap space to work with. The Dallas Cowboys offered the Seattle Seahawks a second round draft pick for Earl Thomas which was turned down. The Seahawks would like more than just a second round draft pick clearly after seeing Khalil Mack go to Chicago for two first round picks. Clearly Earl Thomas is at the end of his prime however still one of top the free safeties in this league. Why wouldn’t you want get Earl Thomas by any means, if your Jerry Jones  and believe that your not far from a Super Bowl, than why not to make sure.
