I mean it's easy to say you woulda picked this guy and this guy but here is at the time who I woulda drafted last year.
1. Steve Avila C
2. Ocyrus Torrence OG
3. Siaki Ika DT
4. Darius Rush CB
5. Davis Allen TE
6. Karl Brooks DT
7. Zack Kuntz TE
I don't know, I'm not as down on the draft class as most
I'd swap out Schoonmaker, but I think Mazi Smith will be much better and DeMarvion Overshown is going to be a menace
The rest? Outside of Karl Brooks I can't say anyone of them have done much to make me feel any way positive or negative
i wanted notre dame te michael mayer...and nothing changed since.
i do think zimmer will get mazi smith on track...at least i hope so.
but i'd still rather have the mayer of south bend.
Before the Cowboys picked Mazi, I wanted them to draft either Steve Avila or Michael Mayer.
I had Mazi rated as a late 2nd. On my DT rankings, Keeanu Benton was well ahead of Mazi with regards to run-stopping type DTs.
Note: One of the Cowboys favorite players in that draft was TE Sam LaPorta but they over-analyzed their draft board with regards to value and moved him down because they consider TE a lower value position than DL or OL.
I had Avila rated significantly higher than O'Cyrus Torrence.
- However, I thought Torrence at #58 would have been a solid pick.
I'm good with Overshown instead of Ika.
Surprised that Darius Rush was drafted in the 5th...expected him to be a 3rd rounder.
TE Zack Kuntz was one of my pet cats with regards to late round developmental type players.
