Drafted by Cowboys 1st Round Pick - MLB Leighton Vander Esch, Boise St. (19th pick)

His comparison was Keuchly. If they're right, I'm alright with that!

He has also been compared to Karlos Danby which I am fine with also. I have seen comparisons to Barbie Carpenter also. Hopefully he is not him

"Compares to Lee and Kuechly" my ***.

Cowboys fell in love with another athlete, an underwear Olympian, a workout warrior. They didn't solve anything.

Hate it.

Keep in mind folks that texbumthelife also thought Jalen Ramsey was a scrub.

SPARQ won again. But I am intrigued. His arms look like toothpicks. But I like the way he played basketball in HS. Very impressive athlete.

I don't think he as any issues with the WEED!
I don't know anything about him so I will trust that the Coaches and Scouts did their homework.

I was hoping he'd be on the plant. I don't think the cowboys are stupid enough to pick a 2nd dopehead.

Just my luck

This is the first first round pick I've liked since Zack Martin over Johnny Football.

Obviously Zeke is great, but wanted Ramsey that year and still wonder if we made the wrong move.

I like the pick! First choice was Vita, but I'm good with LVE

If this guy is a smart, athletic, physical, big middle linebacker for a decade.......this was a great pick.

The athleticism is intriguing but I just can’t get excited about the pick.

Me too. I want toughness to be my MLBs calling card.

Don't see it with Vander Esch

LOL, but what do we really know?

Sorry, let me clarify....you thought Jalen Ramsey was stiff and didn't have the hips for corner. You based that off your analysis of him. Yes or no?

Can you imagine being picked to play for the Cowboys. I'm happy for the young man.

I said just yesterday that he looks stiff and like Jason Witten making a tackle. But I hope I'm wrong because if we made two mistakes at LB we are screwed!

T-craw and D-law just celebrated the LVE pick on Twitter, fyi.

I was shocked that there was so many elite players that was available at 19 or with a small trade up. I think the decision was made weeks ago and they liked him so much that they had tunnel vision which was easy to see, since they didn't make a move to trade up for one of the elite players like James. It is what it is, so I hope for the best.

I also came back and ate my crow several times admitting I was wrong. That's more than I'm sure your scrawny sack could manage. I'm sure you're perfect in your player evaluations, right? That's why you're sitting here on a message board during the draft.

Great man be a good pick. Don’t like the he injury thing.
