There is a legit reason the Cowboys considered getting him at 17. I think he's better than the CB ATL picked at 16 in front of the Cowboys pick of Lamb.

Yup. Its been a while since we had a baller with size. The last CB I enjoyed was Orlando Scandrick early in his career. He just didn't have the size. Diggs does and he turns back for the ball as well. Love to see it.

I’m excited about Diggs. He definitely shows a different skill set than our other CBS. He not only wants to defend but once that ball is in the air, it’s his ball.

Diggs will have a better test next game. Julio, Ridley n Gage...this is a big boy game on the corner.

But, liked Diggs predraft and like him after 1 game. I say start him rest of the year.

Sidenote: Jourdan Lewis get well soon...#30 wasn't doing it for me in the slot.

Our secondary can be awesome if Lewis and Diggs have a stud safety alongside...What happened to Brown after his rookie season?...After Julio Jones and his crew, Diggs has to go to Seattle to face D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett (with no fans).

I had no idea how big this guy is.

Rookie, no training camp whatsoever to speak of. No off season. No contact. Thrown in as a starter against a high octane offense first rattle out of the box.

I think he played a really solid game. Couple of dimes dropped out of his reach. But by and large I see - as a fan and not an expert - what some of the pros have said about this guy.

So comment on that stop around the fifty yard line tackling that big bruiser for the Rams and forcing a punt.

This will end up being a premium pick in the second for Dallas.

Heard on the radio how Trysten Hill saw the play developing and ran as hard as he could to prevent the cut back and forcing the RB into Diggs tackle. I didn't notice that, but they seemed giddy about it on 103.3 ESPN Dallas.

I thought his game was stellar. A couple of completions are the type where 1/10 might be able to get through.

Absolutely thrilled to see a DB who can play the ball and maintain tight coverage.

I agree. I can see some upside with these CBs if the pass rush stays consistent. Idk what's up with AB.

I like our corners.. I think i'll really like them around November.

Vander Esch loss was massive though.

every Time the camera was on him, he had tight coverage and located the ball each time. The other guys couldn't.
Uh, Diggs got beat twice specifically because he couldn't get to the ball.

Diggs played the same game Chido always plays. Great coverage and just can't get a hand on the ball.

He has the new Cowboys curse.

Perfect coverage and plays the ball.

Opposing QBs just throw perfect passes on him! Impressed by the kid he looks like the real deal

Is there a more hyped player out of camp than a brown? All we hear is how good he is and he just stinks on Sunday
