LB: 50 Shemar James

He had a rough rookie year, but Im definitely not out on him. He is going to be a back up this year and probably gets fewer snaps than Barham. However I can see them both starting in 2027. Overshown and Winters are both FA's after the year
Just noticed a couple of weeks ago that he had a total of 91 tackles last season with only 6 starts. He can only get better with a year under his belt. So yeah, he probably won't start the season as a starter but who knows by season's end.

In typical Cowboys fashion, Overshown is good to have a breakout/breakthrough season and we’ll have our big contract dispute for next season. People think it’s goin to be Pickens but nope it’s going to Overshown.

Very possible........Stephen Jones gives him a huge contract and he misses most of the 2027 season with a major injury
 
I love the depth across the board. Can’t wait to see the second year guys along with the obvious, and even guys like Overton and Barham, etc….

We cannot say they “ran it back.” Not on defense anyway.

Yeah, I know what Lucy is gonna ultimately do, but I’m just excited to finally be excited about something as it pertains to the Ego Empire. Trying to shut him out.

Thing is, Lucy doesn’t really want to pull the ball away, it’s just her nature. For five cents I can do a full psychoanalysis if requested.
 
They will just let him walk. The franchise tag is way to expensive for an OLB
I dunno, I think they sign him. Remember he is Spauldings buddy and the future scout in trainings big find. You know Jerry is great at “grooming.”

I really don’t think they let 0 walk away. Even if he misses most of the year they will still bring him back on the supposed cheap. Stephen is probably secretly rooting for that.

Honestly they really have accumulated some decent talent on defense, and not just at the starter level. It really should be something that works out. That’s why they play em.
 
it's crazy because every mock draft I did last year, it ALWAYS gave me him lol, people want brooks/wagner/etc, we have to see what we have in him first in another season and some other guys
I had him in a few mock drafts as well. But I did not use a draft simulator.
Just looked at a list of how the players were ranked. And selected names within 5 players or so when Dallas was picking.

He filled in decent when players were injured. And that himself was coming off an injury from college.

I think he will be a surprise to many fans.

Projected as a 6th-7th rounder we took him in the 5th. Used picks 174 and 204 to trade up to get him at 152. Draft grade as average backup or special-teamer.


Comments about James at 2:37. I still like this pick.


At the time they said his projection dropped due to injures from college. Or he could have been a 3rd or 4th round pick.
Again they tell us us they got value for the pick. The normal lip service when they trade up like that.

I think he can be a good player, and surprise fans. From what little I seen and heard.

I already have us winning the SB. But if what you're saying comes true, we're going 20-0. Lol I've been drunk on the Kool-Aid since the Parcells era, but EVENTUALLY my prediction has to come true. Right?

Man, the latter of your comment is a good position to be in. We can always franchise him in a "prove it" deal. He's a Cowboy who always wears a smile. He's the type that Jerry finds a way to take care of. Either he gets a big contract, or his parents will become the new owners of a company. The reason I think we could tag him is because I don't think GP gets a second tag. Please keep in mind that I'm a bad couch GM.

GO COWBOYS! :star:
