So bigger guns is what you come up with as the difference in a mid-1st round pick compared to a late round pick?.

Please don't ask him to do percentages.

You are making a nonsensical argument in an attempt to not admit to being wrong.

Teams in 2019 rarely ever ran a draw play on 3rd and 8.

Emmitt is the all time leading rusher and is in the Hall of Fame.

The Cowboys OL from back then was one of if not the best ever.

It was called a lead draw because they ran it with FB Moose Johnston lead blocking. He is one of best FBs in NFL history and definitely one of the best in the past 30 years.

Defenses in the modern era generally either play both DTs as 3tech which means both interior gaps (A gaps) are open OR defenses play a 3 man DL with just 1 DT.

Teams in 2019 don't have undersized defensive ends playing defensive tackles either.

The Cowboys OL benefit by having larger offensive linemen who could take advantage of smaller defensive linemen. You put undersized Randy Gregory and Aldon Smith in the middle, you mean to tell me that 305 to 315 lb offensive linemen couldn't block them out?

You don't think other teams can do the same thing?

JC, you see what you have done @tyke1doe ?

You have @xwalker and me on the same side of an argument now. I hope you're happy with yourself.

You made a dumb statement. Your whole rebuttal has been "we used to do it with Emmitt!!'

Emmitt Smith hasn't played for Dallas in 18 years. Football teams employ the NASCAR or all-pass rusher packages on 3rd and long all of the time.

The only emotion your posts have inspired is sympathy. Maybe a little laughter.

You're feelings got hurt. Just admit it.

This was actually a good pick.

Well, I can be a uniter too.

Gregory was on the edge in that scenario.

Aldon is up to 290 lbs. now.

Not in the slightest.

Most DTs are upwards of 300 lbs.

Anyway, I made my observation. You disagree. That's fine. It's too great a draft to get bogged down into such a discussion. Peace.

I love these high value picks. I just wanna know how all these 2nd rounders fell to the 5th round ???

Anae had 25 reps on the bench which is well above average for a sub 260 pound player. It's more than some of the EDGE players drafted in the 2nd round.

Chaisson didn't lift.

Lol, what are talking about?

He’s an undersized edge player with marginal athleticism at a position where he needs to beat bigger/stronger players. I said said as much in my initial post.

You tried equating their body types based on measurements on the screen.

Again, last pick of the 5th round which means he would have at best been a 6th rounder, so to act like the skepticism of his pro potential is unwarranted is ignorant.

I get it; GO COWBOYS!

Every pick must be awesome.

Another pick that probably would have never been made if Rod was still here because he didn’t fit 100% the scheme he wanted to run.

This draft is insane. I think we may be 5/6 or 6/6 on getting players way past their draft ranking. Some absolute steals

might be an odd draft because there were like 18 great WRS available, a ton of OT, and no safetys went in the first..a lot of fall down the boards and runs on the deep positions let some others fall our way.. crazy IF they work out...

It has nothing to do with all Cowboys picks being awesome.

I'm just calling nonsensical comments that you made.

It happens every year. It's not surprising Dallas fans don't know this because Dallas never cared to draft any of them.

If an offense runs up the middle on 3rd and 8, it's not likely to be a DT that makes the stop.

As I explained, the DT are likely both lined up as 3tech and pass rushing to the outside of the OGs.

Belichick's 3rd and 8 defense is most often only 2 DL, both outside the OGs with a big LB lined up on the Center.

As Erik Williams was known to say to opponents, "Just take your whupping like a man".

What? The guy walked on the moon!! Geez, what's a guy gotta do to impress.................Oh wait, you meant..........Never mind.

Utah is know for recruiting big tough difficult defensive and offensive linemen.
for some reason they arent give enough credit. Anae will be good

Are you sure you can do it without an Eagles fan trying to explain percentages to you?
