Have to admit to cringing when he basically threw his college coaches under the bus with that " I've never been coached to rush the passer " comment.

Glad Upshaw will not be the pick at 14.

Not explosive enough for 3-4 OLB, and to small for 3-4 DE.

I have to admit that it he hasn't been removed from our board. I would love to see him as our 3rd round pick.
At that moment a voice came over me and said, Look up, get up, and don't ever give up. You tell everyone or anyone that has ever doubted, thought they did not measure up or wanted to quit, you tell them to look up, get up and don't ever give up. - Michael Irvin

I'm sure we will never know the complete list and besides Lewis, Upshaw and player X this is all speculation at this point.

I think it's the cumilation of instances with out any remorse or showing anyone your learning for your mistakes.

I will say though, it's just speculation on my part, his name has not been mentioned as one that has been removed.
I've never hear your opinion on Cliff Sdogo? He's never mentioned with the Janoris, Kirkpatrick, and Gilmores of this draft. I know who blew his pro day due to poor conditioning, etc. Janoris has done way worse IMO.

But much like the opposite of Poe when you put on the tape all he does is make plays. He sees the ball better then anybody in this draft, and is a playmaker with the ball in his hands. He's the steal of the draft IMO.

He has ball skills but he so rail thin I worry about him holding up in the run game and against bigger WR's.

I think he is an ideal guy to throw in the slot. He's makes himself small in space and is quicker then fast.

I think he's going to struggle in man to man or as a teams top 2 corner.

so smokescreen?

The Cowboys are expected to take a ''long, hard look'' at Alabama DE/OLB Courtney Upshaw

The article also mentions Kirkpatrick and Barron, and as a matter of fact it focuses more on the three players from Alabama rather pinpointing Upshaw.

If Stephen didn't mention Upshaw it would be more of a red flag in my opinion.

I would say, they have never come out and ousted a player they have taken off their board pre or post draft. Then again, you can be getting smoke the other direction. What I do find ironic is the person who did that article and interview and the person who says they have removed him from their board work closely together.

On a sid enote, I think the more interesting part of that interview was the doubt of Stephen on where Upshaw would play. That's damaging if you ask me.

He also mentioned Barron and talked about being a a box safety but taking one that high he would also have to show the ability to cover on 3rd downs which isn't exactly a ringing endorsement either IMO.

You guys are saying Upshaw is off our board entirely? Why? For what?
