Draft Day ***Day one Draft Thread***

[Hardline]

Where are all the BPA critics now?

 

[LACowboysFan1]

It was actually. We needed a slot WR and we got a guy who can be a star number 1 WR in the league he was definitely BPA on board

I agree it was a need, but it wasn't as great a need as corner or defensive end...

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

The exterior of the Raiders stadium is pretty nice looking.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

Wow...I like arnette but I was thinking he might get to us in the second...not in the top 20

[eternaljester81]

Never change Raiders...never change.

I liked Arnette at 51. Raiders are just different.

 

[USMarineVet]

My guess is that the Eagles are more interested in OL or DB help than at WR in the 1st rd.

I respect your outsider looking in. But if you're a spy, I'll have to shoot you.

 

[Rockport]

That’s why Dallas doesn’t win.

Hey you were going to whine like a baby no matter what and this is all you got?

 

[CowboysDrew]

I mean, look at what Lynch did with Kinlaw. He really didn't need a D player either, but he went BPA.

I hate he did it, but yeah, there's something to be said for that approach.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Think about it this way. Lamb will have two years of experience when 1) Coopers guarenteed is up. 2) Gallup's rookie contract is up.

In Lamb you have ready replacement for either of them. Thats been one of the points the WR at #17 set has been making

Yeah and you could possibly trade one of them.

 

[Diehardblues]

That’s why Dallas doesn’t win.

But we’re exciting on offense. It generates fans, revenue and fantasy.

 

[superonyx]

BPA is a stupid philosophy. Take BPA at positions of need. Overlay value. If BPA was RB you would not take them.

Agreed about RB.
But sometime the BPA just also happens to be at a position of need.

Something tells me Mike McCarthy knows our positions of need more than you do.

9ers lost Buckner though didn't they?

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

I hated the Cooper contract. Now I really hate it.

Disagree. Coop is an established veteran. It's Coops presence that allows Lamb to EAT this year.

 

[Carson]

Agreed about RB.

This.

Trust McCarthy. You don’t just win Super Bowls

[GenoT]

Can’t-miss talent at a skill position.

Lamb can play all three WR spots and will push Cooper and Gallup to up their games.

 

[mattjames2010]

mattjames is upset at the pick?

Color me stunned.

I mean, what exactly is to love about it? It's a skill position and we already have Gallup and Cooper (who we just signed)

People have too much confidence in Awuzie, Lewis, Ha Ha, and our disappointing LB group. I guess I'm just weird with thinking you need studs at safety and the interior rather than continuing to try and find bargain bin guys on their 4th team in FA.

 

[CowboyinMD]

This reminds me a little of the 1988 draft.

Michael Irvin may not have been Dallas' initial choice at #11, but he was still on the board, BPA when Dallas picked, and to their credit, they took him. Mind you, this was before Jerry and Jimmy. It was still the Landry and and Gil Brandt era, long past their prime when it came to the draft.
