Wrong to compare this draft to 2009?

Teague31 · Apr 27, 2019

no first rounder
Spent the rest of the time drafting backups/potential future starters and special teams guys.
Hope not. But I see McGovern being inactive all season unless they cut silo

Way wrong.

Way too premature.

Hill is very talented. It’s his maturity that’s in question.

McGovern probably won’t be inactive. Sua’filo isn’t really even that good for real. He is just a JAG.

McGovern is drafted to be a starter for the team by next year. Overrated La’el Collins will be gone and fresh blood brought in.

I actually love the McGovern pick. I recognize it’s not an immediate need. But it’s putting the effort in, to keep our offensive line the strength of the team for the long run. McGovern is going to open holes for Zeke. I guarantee that.

We don’t even know what these players can do

We just don’t like the picks I don’t like the picks

Last time I like the picks we made we drafted Morris Claiborne I also liked the Bobby Carpenter pick....

I hated the Travis Frederick pick
I didn’t even know who LVE was
I was meh on zack Martin
I didn’t want jaylon smith

Yep not even close

Titleist · Apr 27, 2019

This question can only be properly answered in 3-5 years from now. Not today and certainly not with 4 rounds remaining in this draft...

Jake · Apr 27, 2019

Premature to compare it to any draft.

What 2nd and 3rd round picks have started from day 1 and made a big difference lately?

Gallup showed something, but he was probably a liability early on, same with Williams.

Same thing with these two guys. They will be full time starters next season and rotation or quality backups this year. Great for 2nd and 3rd rounders.

Jipper · Apr 27, 2019

That was a completely different draft....was focused on special teams players...so far we have picked up two guys that could be starters this year or next

Sarge · Apr 27, 2019

I’m in favor of letting the guys actually play before determining the success or failure of the pick(s).

Let’s not forget that we actually did use our 1st round pick. That’s why we have Amari Cooper.

2009 Draft had no talent.....it wasn't all DAL's fault

Williams was a high ceiling low floor player who couldnt get off the floor. Brewster was a huge reach. After that the draft overall went very thin.

is that draft they accumulated like 4 7th rounders?

If Hill proves everybody wrong it will be a good draft.

I wish 99% of the posters were as honest as you. Refreshing.

I hope not too. I think we should have picked Adderley at 58 because I think Hill would have been there at 90. No way it works the other way around. If Hill doesn't make it, take Knox. To me, Adderley and Knox have a better chance at working out. But I still think the two we picked will turn out better than 2009.

Notcrazy about thisdraft but suspect its much better than that 2009 debacle

We’ll know morein a year or three

lostar2009 · Apr 27, 2019

I think the first 3 picks will stick and may play this year. Everyone I don't know. Also don't forget the Cowboys will loose a lot of players next year.

Carson · Apr 27, 2019

No way. 2009 was full of projects. This kids here can actually play

Wrong to compare this draft to 2009?
