I was ecstatic when he was drafted. Surprised he fell to us tbh. He single handedly wrecked that entire Cotton bowl.

He was a linebacker. He was gonna be there for sure. Nobody was taking a linebacker top 10.

And these same people will say they always wanted him lol……


With our pick I felt we had our choice of the best defensive player in the draft. I wanted Horn and Surtain. When both were gone it became clear the best player left was Micah. I was not taking Slater I needed a guy who can make an impact now and Slater was a luxury at the time with Collins and Tyron. Sure we could’ve put him at guard…..not taking a guard that high.

Likewise. I had Micah as the best defender in the draft, but figured Surtain would be the guy if he was on the board. Surtain would've been great next to Diggs, but Micah is a grand slam. We got lucky.

He’s great but no player should feel “safe”

I know there were a few that were pining for Micah from the get-go, but the one I truly remember (and he was thorough on his thoughts about it) was @AsthmaField .
He was almost begging for Micah, but with the caveat that they play him the right way, and he detailed how.
And they did it all exactly how he called it to the results we now see.
The stars really aligned on that one.

D... I... V... Uh.
Diva.

He fell because of taking the season off and the controversy over hazing. Otherwise he totally was projected top 5. At least that's what my bad memory remembers

You pretty much nailed it.

Which one of our board experts made those claims after the pick?

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Yup, Micah is a main reason our defence is as elite as it is.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Only thing that made me iffy was the fact that he took 2020 off. But that had zero effect on his play. He probably would have been a top 5 pick had he played that year.

So he is talking to fans on nfl network ??

Lol, I’m glad at least someone remembers…

Ok, Dan Quinn. Not exactly prophetic in “guessing” as to how he was going to be used….. When, you know, your calling the shots.
