Andy Isabella

[CATCH17]

What do you guys think?

He’s definitely hard to stop when the ball is in his hands.

He can get the edge on end arounds too.

Quick and I’m guessing he’s got good top speed too. It looks like it anyways.

 

[Keithfansince5]

Would be better than Beasley as our slot guy. His hands are suspect at times but he is very fast and strong.

 

[cnuball21]

Dudes a stud.

He’d be a good mid round target as a replacement for Beas if we let him walk.

Ideally, if we target a a lot guy they’ll have some return ability.

He can do a lot of things that teams value now days so I wonder how high he goes.

3rd?

3rd?

WRs under 5’10 usually don’t go until the 4th or so. Switzer was the earliest drafted the last 2 years and he was the 4th.

Isabellla is a better prospect IMO, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he broke the trend and was taken as early as the 3rd.

 

[Idgit]

I love him.

Won’t be there, though.

Yeah.

It just looks like he can do all the gadget stuff as well as be a legit slot guy and even go outside.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Dude is tailor-made for the Patriots to take at the backend of Round 1; Edelman is slowing down and they are talent poor at the position.

 

[cnuball21]

Yeah.

I’d like us to keep Austin for just that reason, but agree he’s a good player for the quick throws.

3rd?

We might have to take him in the 2nd round if we want him. I like our receivers but he and/or Penny could help.

 

[DFWJC]

3rd?

I'd prefer to not drop a 3rd on him. But if he's still there later, then maybe so.
He's pretty dynamic

That would be shocking.

I like this kid...but I fear he gets drafted just before we hit the clock in the 2nd.

 

[Mr_437]

Keep in mind DAL may have to draft prospects a round earlier due to their draft slot.

Isabella has RAC ability possibly better than anybody on DAL roster due to his acceleration and low center of gravity (legs like JJ Barea).

Also, like his explosion off his plant foot to create separation.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

That would be shocking.

It’s all relative to the offense you run. The slot has always been a critical position in their offense (Troy Brown, Welker, and Edelman). I’m not making it a GORICO stone-cold lock but it wouldn’t shock me one bit.

Isabella in the 2nd would be awful value IMO. 3rd maybe, but you can find slot dudes later in the draft.

Agreed. No need to take a slot in the 2nd... I'd prefer some sort of lineman.

 

[NeonNinja]

Plenty of room on the bandwagon. I’m the driver though.

Hart looks good too.

You're right, I guess nobody knows for sure.

I will say this

• They drafted Edelman in the 7th round
• They drafted Brown in the 8th round
• Welker went undrafted but after playing vs the Pats for several years in Miami, the Pats gave up the 60th pick for him a as proven commodity. Even then he got a tiny contract at first

 

[CATCH17]

Agreed. No need to take a slot in the 2nd... I'd prefer some sort of lineman.

Yeah i'm fine with a lineman too.

It's just going to be picked over quite a bit at that point. Teams reach for lineman now days and these guys that are good rarely hit free agency.


Dak needs protection but he also needs that great slot guy / TE to be his best as a QB.

Also, an interior Pass Rush guy would be nice to have.

I wouldn't have a problem with a DB either.
