If Darues falls to #9, I will be in absolute shock.

[TheDallasDon]

Dontay Moch looks like a physical specimen, were is he projected to go

If he looks good in the LB drills later I would give him a shot

[CATCH17]

Acho is the most underrated player in thisdraft.

He tests well and he plays well.

[The Realist]

The guy I want is Dareus but Jordan and Ballard running 4.7 is impressive.

[Gaede]

Man, pretty much all of those big guys timed pretty well

[CATCH17]

The guy I want is Dareus but Jordan and Ballard running 4.7 is impressive.

People will be upset if we take him but you can argue that the guy is the best player in this draft.

I wouldn't be upset if we took him.

[ABQCOWBOY]

Acho is the most underrated player in thisdraft.

He tests well and he plays well.

He may be Catch. I like Acho and really wonder if he has the skills to play LB in a 34 at the next level?

[jterrell]

Didn't see any big surprises here.

Lots of talented and athletic DL this year.

Acho is a good player but he isn't underrated in this group.
This group is just loaded.

I think Dallas can find very solid players here in round 3 if they so choose.

[jterrell]

He may be Catch. I like Acho and really wonder if he has the skills to play LB in a 34 at the next level?

He could grow into that role imho. A couple year project but it could certainly happen.

A team who values quicker 4-3 pass rushers may like him more tho as he can do that day 1. He'd be a beast for someone like Chicago.

[SilverStarCowboy]

Dareus or Jordon at #9 please.

[The Realist]

People will be upset if we take him but you can argue that the guy is the best player in this draft.

I wouldn't be upset if we took him.

Long-term I think his best position could be 3-4 NT.

Fits like a glove if you expect Rat to have a 3-4 years left at NT.

AGREED!!!!!!!!!!! Seems like a bigger version of Rat (the body size we all wish Rat had).

[The Realist]

AGREED!!!!!!!!!!! Seems like a bigger version of Rat (the body size we all wish Rat had).

You would be able to move our DL all over the place not knowing where Rat, Dareus, Brent or Spears are going to line up.

[Avery]

Gotta say that all these times are really impressive.

[CATCH17]

He may be Catch. I like Acho and really wonder if he has the skills to play LB in a 34 at the next level?

Im sure he could do just about anything you asked him to do. He's just a good football player that knows how to get to the QB.

[Sam I Am]

They say Larry Allen ran a 4.6 40 at 325lbs. That is impressive.

[realtick]

NFL team to Marcel Dareus: "What's the difference between an apple and a orange?"

Marcel Dareus: "They're both fruits..."

NFL team to Marcel Dareus: "What do a table and chair have in common?"

Marcel Dareus: "I guess a dining set..."

:lmao:

[unionjack8]

been pimpin him for a while but marvin austin in round 2 would be a steal. OT Smith then Austin is looking sweet to me.

He has the tape, not just ameasurables guy, yes some off field issues but given the chance he can help at DE and NT.

[silverbear]

Acho is the most underrated player in thisdraft.

I was expecting about a 4.7-4.75 for him, so this will only help him come draft day...

[mullet]

Gotta say that all these times are really impressive.

Agreed. Those times are just sick for men that large.

[jterrell]

Agreed. Those times are just sick for men that large.

but not quite as impressive as Ware running a 4.56:)

It has been reported that some of Austin`s interviews were so bad that teams took him off their draft board , but I agree with you. Austin is a beast. He really must have an attitude problem. He was rated as one of the top DT prospects this year but he faded after the suspension.

[TheCount]

How has Ellis looked? Haven't been able to watch today.

[jnday]

The guy I want is Dareus but Jordan and Ballard running 4.7 is impressive.

My biggest concern with Darius is that he is a two down player. During one of Bama`s pregame shows , his coaches said that his play had dropped this year hen he had to play three downs. That id the reason that he had spells where he disappeared for several plays a game. It would be hard to justify taking a two-down player at 9. He compares with Spears in many aspects of his game.

5.19 is fast for a guy the size of Ellis. Moving 346lbs that fast is scary.

Conditioning can be improved upon.

Amazing that teams were able to neutralize him when Bama's DL lost 3 players to the NFL.

And by the way 95%+ of 3-4 DE's and NT's play 2 downs only.

[Sam I Am]

And by the way 95%+ of 3-4 DE's and NT's play 2 downs only.

If they're good anyhow. If teams are running all over your DE/NT in a 3-4, you won't ever go into a nickel or dime defense to get them off the field.

[newera]

Did quinn workout today? And if so, does anyone have the #s?

[InmanRoshi]

Really impressed with Watt putting up a 4.78 time at 290 lbs.. He's a lot better athlete than people were giving him credit for. I like Jordan a lot too, but I would have no problem taking him at #9. We just need more pocket penetrators in our Front 3. If you're sticking with Igor another year as a starter, you're basically conceeding zilch for playmaking ability at one of your spots.

[Woods]

M Austin's 10-yard split was very impressive.

We should definitely be able to get a quality DL in the 2nd or 3rd round even.

I agree. I really like what I saw from Watt today.
