Drafted by Cowboys Cowboys select UCLA DT Osa Odighizuwa at No. 75

[phildadon86]

Terrible pick. These idiots not moving up for Milton will haunt us. ** Stephen.

The Florida DT is still there.

 

[HungryLion]

Can we say “gettin diggy with it” whenever he makes a play?

 

[phildadon86]

You have the wrong guy for that

At this point. Put Jerry at 1 tech. Maybe he’ll realize how important it is

 

[RamziD]

I think it’s funny that people are mad we didn’t move up for Milton Williams, of all people.

 

[Kolemmitt]

This is the Crawford replacement. Can move between 3T and DE

Yep. Exactly.

 

[Cebrin]

I need to watch this guy.. No thoughts.

Same I haven't watched anything on him. I'm assuming at his size he'll be a 3 tech and maybe DE on run downs, but I'll have to see some film.

Osa is a bad man in the middle. He is the stud the boys need in the middle. He was also a 3x state wrestling champion. 10 3/4 inch hand


Go Dallas!!!

How big was David Irving? He held his own, weighing less than 300lbs.

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Not much logic to this pick.
They have taken a three-tech three years in a row now. The run defense was last in the league and poor DT play was the main culprit.
So a DT that gets handled against the run does nothing to move the needle.

Judging by the reaction to this pick. He is now officially my favorite to be the best value pick of our draft. So much *****ing from the know it alls here...gives me alot of hope for this kid. This was one I wasn't sure about but now that I've read this thread I know we got a solid pick. Thanks guys.

 

[Cebrin]

They didn’t need a 3 tech guy and this guy is a project as a 3 tech. Not a fan. At all. Terrible pick.

We definitely need 3 tech, and someone who can play RDE on run downs. I don't trust Gregory on run downs. Too small.

It's not that.

Everyone knew the loved Horn/Surtain, Moehrig, Milton Williams, Molden, etc. Teams outmaneuvered us easily.

 

[1972COWBOY]

This guy has arms like a praying mantis

Good Pick

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

A body.

 

[AsthmaField]

Go to the 7:12 min mark of this video to hear Brett Kollmann’s take on Odighizuwa. He loves him. Kollmann is excellent.

It's less about the player specifically and moreso about the fact that they continue to ignore the need for a real run stuffing 1-tech but have no problem taking another 3-tech every year...

 

[darthseinfeld]

Not a bad pick. He has alot of gap versatility. Could see alot of snaps as a 4T. Probably not a good spot for Gallimore or Hill

 

[Aven8]

This is definitely a Scout pick.

 

[Miller]

 

[The Natural]

This is the Crawford replacement. Can move between 3T and DE

Did we need to take a “Crawford replacement” right there with better players on the board?
