Nearly for the reason that day he bought the Dallas Cowboys in 1989, many have believed Jerry Jones did what Jerry Jones needed to do, particularly when it got here to the draft.
Jones mentioned there was a collective method from the start that has included the entire personnel executives, like his son Stephen, coaches and scouts as they work by a course of of choosing gamers. There may need been some discrepancies through the years the place Jones went in opposition to the grain (Quincy Carter, 2001) however there’s proof on the opposite facet (Zack Martin over Johnny Manziel in 2014), too.
But Jones can be keen to have some enjoyable with the narrative.
“There may be numerous speak on this enterprise about who makes the decision, who truly makes the decision,” Jones mentioned. “OK, Taco was Stephen’s name. And Parsons was my name.”
Taco Charlton was the Cowboys’ first-round decide in 2017, and T.J. Watt serves as a day by day reminder on what the Cowboys missed by taking Charlton. Micah Parsons was the Cowboys’ first decide final yr, and he was named the Defensive Rookie of the Yr, a Professional Bowler and All-Professional.
For his half, Charlton, who’s at present with the New Orleans Saints, did not appear to thoughts Jones’ admission all that a lot.
