So, on whatever show he's on, he actually admitted that he had never heard of any of the Dallas draft picks other than Micah Parsons.

Never heard of Kelvin Joseph (#13 overall on Voch's board), Osa (Senior Bowl standout), Jabril Cox (c'mon). This guy is so far out of touch, I don't understand why he is still employed.

It’s not a bad thing.

They contract all of that stuff out to the draft show guys and we get a better product as fans then we ever could with his crew trying to talk draft.

He’s a brown nosed butt kisser, that’s why!

I mean. At least he was honest about it.

He has other functions and responsibilities besides watching tape.

we aren’t his boss. Perhaps his boss, Derek Eagleton..... who was on his podcast with him...... doesn’t expect him to know all the prospects because he has other stuff he wants him to do.

just a thought.

During the Covid period last year, it was harder to keep up with college football. What Eastman said is completely understandable and his 3 co-workers and producer that he said it in front of totally understood where he is coming from.

Arent all the DC.com staff ? Especially one Spagnola guy , LOL

Hell no. Well I mean Spagnola is, but the 'Break' crew calls everyone out from players to coaches. Ambar Garcia has wanted to bench Jaylon all seasons, and none were happy with McCarthy. They're definitely not told to watch what they say.

And I'd rather Eatman admit he hasn't heard of players than BS his way through an answer about them. This isn't like last year when guys kept falling to us

I honestly believe this is how most people are......he just simply admitted it. You can listen to some of these guys talk and know they haven't seen a ounce of film.

I've listened to Nick for over 20 years, my opinion is he is a great guy. Not afraid to say what he thinks and certainly doesn't follow the company line. He knows a lot more than he lets on, but every now again reveals a nugget or two. I bought his book 'If these walls could talk' and it's a great read. Has a dry sense of humour as well

Sure, but I don't work in the NFL and I had heard of most of those guys. I'd be embarrassed to admit that if I'm Eatman.

If he hasn't heard of Joseph or Cox than how does he even hold that job?

I hope he is self employed because if he has a salary then they are paying him for nothing. If he was a draft pick he would go undrafted and cut by 5 different teams.
