One thing the Dallas Cowboys‘ front office has never been accused off is being football smart. Even when owner and pretend general manager Jerry Jones won the NFL Executive of the Year in 2014, it was laughable.
This is the same man that had to be talked out of drafting Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel over Notre Dame offensive lineman Zack Martin before the start of that very same season. Ridiculous. When the Cowboys went 4-12 the following year, shouldn’t the league have asked for that award back?
But it’s not elder Jones who is the most to blame for the current free agency sinkhole this Cowboys organization finds itself in.
