Can’t wait to get Overshown back.

That guy is going to be the star of that draft class imo.

Big talent.
I don't understand the hype of Overshown who hasn't played one snap in a regular season or postseason NFL game.

Before the... Oh in preseason he looked like a beast...

How many times have we seen guys in preseason look amazing and got to a real game and wasn't that good?

He could be really good but Dallas shouldn't rely on him. Go into off-season not counting on him is what I think is smart. Both draft and free agency

Trade back and draft the center from Oregon and then take Cooper from A&M followed by Wilson.

His scouting report is also the opposite of what we need…more of a finesse LBr good at blitzing and coverage.

So yea, I’m not counting on him at all to fix our run D woes.

I liked what Overshown showed in preseason, but he is that safety/LB hybrid that we already have a billion of. Juanyeh, Bell, Wilson, Kearse...

Payton Wilson effectively plays a different position than him.

My hype is more about watching him in college.

He is what people think Parsons is as a linebacker.

He actually has instincts for the position and his acceleration is incredible.

I like Wilson but honestly, I'd like to see them bring in a veteran inside guy as well. Maybe a Josey Jewell from Denver or see if Wagner is willing to leave Seattle now that Carroll is done.

Check out Frankie Luvu as a FA. I live in Charlotte so I’m biased but love him against the run and as a blitzer.

I’m just up the road from you in Lexington,NC. I would not mind signing Frankie, Panthers actually had a pretty decent defense. I definitely would love to have Derrick Brown at defense tackle from the Panthers.

Nice! Hey if we want to trade for Derrick Brown sign me up. Dude is a monster. Give me Brian Burns while you're at it lol.

Probably their best 2 players.

Sportstrac puts his valuation at 11mil a year for 4 years. Which would put him 8th in LB contracts based on last year numbers. I've been touting him too, but probably too rich for Jerry's blood.

I just listened to the draft show where Dane stated that Turner has had double, digit surgeries. He might be a medical red flagged player that is off the team's board. We just saw what happens when you take a LB with injury concerns in both Lve.

I listened to that show last night too. Interesting though didn't get the sense that it was an automatic big red flag for him.

They also talked about possible medicals for a few players Jonathan Brooks the RB and Zinter the C specifically

Probably so, but about half of what the top guys are getting paid.
