I was so mad when they took Tyler Smith, and also when they didn't move up a few spots for Derwin James.Gotta stop freaking out on draft day guys, let the dudes show us if they can play or not. Usually takes a few years but we are so impatient nowadays.
I for one am done being disappointed on draft day. I’m not a scout and can’t reasonably criticize a pick until I see them develop. Keep this in mind with Tolbert, as none of the 3rd round WR’s have shown much up to this point. This will not be the case for their whole careers.
It looks like you will be reminded about it many times over the next several years.I was so mad when they took Tyler Smith, and also when they didn't move up a few spots for Derwin James.
You aren't alone. I was fine with the athletic freak sam williams but I wanted Jermaine Johnson over Tyler SmithI was so mad when they took Tyler Smith, and also when they didn't move up a few spots for Derwin James.

A lot of us wanted Jermaine Johnson. He marked as one of the most athletic true defensive ends in the draft, so it's understandable when some of us were upset when the Cowboys passed him up for Tyler Smith. Tyler Smith has been a pleasant surprise, so big kudos to Will McClay, his scouting team and the front office. I personally like Sam Williams as the next best true defensive end after Jermaine Johnson, so it was amazing to see Sam Williams still there for the taking late in the 2nd round when thankfully the Cowboys swiftly picked him up. That credit goes all to Dan Quinn. I can't believe so many teams passed up Sam Williams TWICE, and I'm sure they are regretting now just like Sam Williams is going to make sure they regret passing him up for many years to come. Sam Williams paired up on one end with Micah Parsons on the other is going to be amazing for many years to come for our Cowboys, as will having Tyler Smith at either O-Tackle or Guard!You aren't alone.

There are many here on this board that are professional scouts, as well as twice as many GM's.Gotta stop freaking out on draft day guys, let the dudes show us if they can play or not. Usually takes a few years but we are so impatient nowadays.

I mean let’s have some nuance here. Obviously I can be disappointed if someone I’ve wanted to pick gets passed over for a prospect I’m not too high on. But to be in upheaval and say the team is wrong because the guy I wanted wasn’t picked seems pretty foolish.You have fun with that. I'll still have opinions.
I'm not going to follow the draft for months and then just shrug my shoulders when it takes place so I don't offend anybody.
