It is already the greatest draft. Jaylon and sometime will play.

it could be the best draft of all time (or top 3) depending on Jaylon.
franchise QB in his first year
franchise RB who may be MVP
potential generational MLB/WLB who runs a 4.4

in addition to starting DT,
possible starting CB.
hopes for a 290lb TE who can catch and run,
along with SS, RB yet to be seen on the field
as well as a super fast (4.59) big DE who may or may not ever recover from back issue

That's what Im saying I am FREAKING out about this.

seriously his nerve has probably been firing for quite a while, according to a lot of medical people
cowboys just put the cone of silence on it or the cloak of secrecy

Im really surprised at the lack of enthusiasm in this news. Do people realize how special of a player this kid was before he got hurt? His nerve firing is the biggest news this season for us minus Romo's statement.

I think people are generally skeptical of hearsay.

This would be great but would we really want a rookie playing his first football in the playoffs?

Either way I'm glad to hear that the nerve is active. That's really positive news. Especially when we got a top 5 player from the draft in the second round. A few more pieces on defense and we are rocking. Imagine the cowboys run year after year if we nail the draft again.
Randy Gregory was a top 5 player also.

Not saying these situations are remotely similar... Just reminiscing.

I think an official word on it would generate more positivity.

Broaddus was saying on Twitter the other day when somebody asked him for like the 10th time in a week if the nerve was firing.

"I see you follow Jaylon on Twitter. Trust me, when that nerve fires, you're gonna be one of the first to know."

Not sure if I'd want him to get his first NFL action in the playoffs, to be honest.
