No I love Dak Prescott !! I am so happy he beat out Jerry's nephew Tony Romo because if he hadn't Romo would still be playing and every pass would be to Jason Witten no one else.Witten wouldn't be comtemplating retirement....I am the guy that has been in love with Rico Gathers and they can't get Witten out the door as fast enough for my taste.
I’m saying no matter what Armstrong does your ego won’t shut you the hell up.

Also, going off stats without context can be misleading, as in the case of Armstrong who had position change along with a scheme change his last year there



My response from first post in the topic
All I hear is excuses."Well he is overcoming a knee injury".."Well he was doubled teamed"..."Well you know he is young at 20 years old".



THANKS JOHN I forgot that excuse.

Oooh sounds like you can't win the argument so we have to get personal. Prove me wrong. Dorance Armstrong is going to suck and my hunch was this was Jerry's personal pick. Luckily Garrett and Stephen have had a tight hold of him the last couple of years where he can't destroy our entire draft

I’m not arguing with you lol. I just see you ranting about Armstrong and saying bum Aruna should’ve been the pick. I’ll just wait until the season starts to laugh at you bro

How are you going to laugh? Cowboys will try to save face by putting Armstrong on IR or the practice squad for the next 2 years hoping people will not remember a few years earlier we drafted in the 4th when we cut his sorry .. by year 3 .Aruna is a 6th round pick most don't make it that late,but I will bet Aruna stays in the NFL longer than Armstrong. Aruna could get cut but he will be picked up.Armstrong won't be. I have done this too long to know who is going to make it and who won't. Armstrong is cut by the Cowboys by year 3.

Jerry can hope he will not get blamed for his crappy picks......I remember Jerry's great draft picks like Quincy Carter-2nd round...,Kavika Pittman-2nd round...Shante Carter-1st round...Tony Dixon 2nd round....Soloman Page 2nd round...Charlie Williams 3rd round...Kenny Wheaton 3rd round....Mike Myers 3rd round...Antonio Anderson 3rd round...Shane Hannah 2nd round....Dwayne Goodrich 2nd round....Kareem Larriemore 3rd round....Willie Blade 3rd round....... Jerry needs to only be allowed to pick the 7th round pick NOTHING ELSE!!!

Peterman was actually a good pick. He was in the league a long time.

Joey Bosa ran a 4.86 40. I don't think anybody is questioning his ability to rush the passer. Pass rushers don't need to be fast, they need to be quick and be able to bend. The important numbers for rushers are their 10 yd split, 3 cone and short shuttle. Let's compare Armstrong to your pet cat Ade Aruna.

Drill .....Armstrong..... Aruna..... DE Benchmark
40..... 4.89..... 4.60.....
10..... 1.69..... 1.60.....
3C..... 7.12..... 7.53..... 7.23
20S..... 4.23..... 4.48..... 4.35

Your boy Aruna may have straight line speed, but he has no lateral agility. He can't bend and can't turn the corner. Armstrong may not have Aruna's burst, but it's good enough but he excels in the lateral agility drills, scoring well below the NFL benchmark for a quality pass rusher and amongst the top 5 at the combine. Aruna's lateral agility is downright atrocious and compares closer to an interior lineman than an edge rusher.

I am beside myself about this pick Armstrong. It is so easy to see.SLOW GUYS don't get much faster.

Jerry should never draft a pick again. He is dangerous like a kid in a Tiffany Glass Shoppe browsing around with the parents distracted.

your conclusions don't measure heart...or talent. Speed alone doesn't equal production. Some players use technique,power. Your painting a skewed picture.

Since it's about production Dorance Armstrong 1.5 sacks in 2017. I SMELL HALL OF FAMER HERE!!!

You have to be trolling at this point.

It has been explained to you how they changed scheme. He was in a 1 gap scheme in 2016 and got 10 sacks, a bunch of FF and TFL. They had some people hurt and so Indiana asked him to put on weight 2 gap and read and react. He got to play undersized 3-4 DE.

What type of scheme do we run? A 1 gap or 2 gap scheme?

You should learn to control your temper then. His jumps and agility drills are good. What do you think is more important for a DE? Being able to leap forward and be quick or run distance?

I will when you can tell me why Damontre Moore is not in the league. ...

Yes there are combine studs who can't play football,but Mamula could run circles around Armstrong

Ummm, because he's a dumb***.
