Drafted by Cowboys 2017 1st - Taco Charlton

Fantastic. Couldn't be happier.

I don't get the hate. His workout numbers are very similar to JPP, not to mention his size. He also was more productive in college, hard to argue with this at 28...

 

[pugilist]

A one year starter. No thanks. Should have gone with Foster in the 1st and Jordan Willis in the second.

where would Foster play? He's best at Will, but we already have a Will LB (Lee)

 

[mugsybows]

Just remember, Barnett and Suggs both ran similar 40's....that's not a pass rush indication.
I was Leary of Harris and was leaning towards Tak, but I was definitely put off by his immaturity at the draft.

I trust the coaches....solid pick. We found a starting CB in round six last year, so in a year deep at CB, I'm sure we have our eye on guys tomorrow night.

I will say this---NY is going to be scary.

Yeah I know he has a lot of emotion cuz his grandma passed but it was a very odd interview. Already saying fine me and stuff.

can the nfl handle 2 david irvings? Both big and tall. (not very fast) but big bodies at DE

Better bigger and can not get moved off the path to the QB by OL....speed just not going to do it...you get knocked on your arse too much...have some weight, so what if you are just a little slower. At least you can move some OL and rush the QB...get them on their heels, get to the QB...how many times have we seen that happen to Doug Free.

Watt is a 3-4 guy would've been a tough fit.

yea brad sham and mickey both said they didn't see watt in this defense at all.

I liked watt. I really just didn't want a corner in the first round and something for the front 7 so I am happy.

 

[SportsGuru80]

I like the pick. You aren't going to get studs at 28.

Why not? Stop it...

Because we have a similar guy at strong side with David Irving so this guy will be weak side where he's not as well positioned for. I'd have gone CB

Backup for David Irving.

 

[Wood]

They obviously think they can use him at RDE, genius, or they wouldn't have drafted him

I dont think so. They will move David Irving inside & Lawrence to RDE (who isn't very good over there). Taco is LDE all the way.

 

[Tass]

 

[JBond]

He's got a good frame for a 4-3 DE. I guess they think God Marinelli can squeeze more talent out of him.

Marinelli has done pretty well with a bunch of garbage players. If the taco has any ability, he will maximize it. I don't think a slow, one year starter was the best move.

 

[theebs]

Disaster. Dallas now has to use 2nd & 3rd rounds to get CB and still no addressing RDE. Just wow. They now have 5 LDE.

not really true though.

Moore, lawrence, taco and irving can basically play either side.

 

[Chuck 54]

So San Fran get's a player 3x better than ours 3 picks later.

LOL.....says who? Watt has all sorts of issues....two torn up knees, a thin frame, and one year on the field. In Pitt, he will at least stand up at OLB. He'd get killed at 4-3 DE

 

[risco]

I hate the pick

Me too- all I can think of is shawnte carver-

 

[Garrettop]

You guys aren't looking at the SPARQ charts. Could have called this pick. He's 3rd on the DE SPARQ chart.

Correction, projected production is 3rd. pSPARQ is middling.

[Verdict]

I am interested in hearing the press conference as to the background thought process on this decision.

 

[JBond]

where would Foster play? He's best at Will, but we already have a Will LB (Lee)

There is always room for a very good LB. I think he will be a great Mike.
