When Cee Dee fell to 17 . I knew with 100% certainty he was going to be the pick. He was the 6th rated player on their draft board.
Kinlaw and Henderson were my two top realistic targets but they were off the board and I wanted Xavier McKinney over Chasson if it came down to those two.

I consider Lamb at 17 a no brainer and a miracle he fell to us.
I agree but I had Delpit higher than McKinney

Well before our turn came up, I was hoping, quite desperately, that it'd be CeeDee Lamb. I felt CeeDee was our winner by far. Our offense just needed a consistently sure-handed WR with great running skills. The fact that he's such an high-impact guy after the catch really put the icing on the cake for us. To be sure, it was crazy for CeeDee to fall to us. Getting him was like winning the Lotto. I was tickled pink by Philly being deprived of him. :)

I'm not clear is this means wanted or just expected.

Hope:
- I had hoped that Javon Kinlaw would fall to #17.

Never Expected:
- I was shocked that Lamb was available. I still can't believe it.

Expected:
- The most likely scenario appeared to be K'Lavon Chaisson.
- I tried to convince myself to like Chaisson but I just couldn't get comfortable wanting him to be the pick.

Hope Alternate:
- I preferred Diggs at #17 over Chaisson or even better a trade down and then Diggs.
- Hopefully Diggs after the 1st turns out like 2003 when I wanted them to trade back into the late 1st to draft Jason Witten.
- Side note: The only time I've ever been as certain that a draft pick would be a great player as I was with Witten was when Tim Duncan was drafted in the NBA.
Excepted

Once 17 was on the clock we knew Lamb had fallen to us so there was no doubt whatsoever which name was going to be announced. It's just too good of a deal to pass up.

I voted who I thought they were going to pick if Lamb did not fall. And that would have been the DE from LSU.
However once Lamb fell at that point I knew it had to be Lamb and if it did not and the Eagles got him it would have been multiple cowboys fans sending death threats to Jerry.

I was hoping for Lamb but thought they would pick Chaisson. I was hoping the Falcons would pick Chaisson.

100%. I texted a friend and said, they’re about to pass on the next antonio brown to pick the next peppi zellner.
