Drafted by Cowboys 2nd Round, Pick 58 - Cowboys Draft DT Trysten Hill, UCF

[JeffInDC]

Hill was a gigantic reach. Like 2 to 3 rounds early.

This is more of a reach than Daniel Jones at 6th overall, to put it in perspective

Based on what? What Todd and Mel say? I remember when Dallas reached for Travis Frederick......how’s that work out. I think last night showed these teams pay ABSOLUTELY NO ATTENTION to the so-called draft experts on the internet.

 

[JeffInDC]

Guy can play, everyone will soon find out....

I think THIS tweet form THIS guy (I think running the Senior Bowl kinda gives you NFL clout) says everything. Again, all of you posting what WalterFootball, Mel & Todd, etc.... say as gospel need to ask yourself one question - are those guys "in the know" more than the GUY THAT RUNS THE SENIOR BOWL??????

I heard he didn’t play much with new staff coming in. But when they were in the big game they kept him in and he dominated. Was it because the starter was injured or because he has a bad attitude. Another Taco..

Just seems like a big reach. Then again, everyone said Frederick was too, and that worked out lol

Everything is fine.

Everything is fine.

Marenelli has all his defensive linemen sign that. It's a motivational tool.

It's another Maliek Collins. A dude that will constantly get hyped up here, but be understandably rated as on the lower end of DTs every year.

Meh.

So Hill is injury prone?

Hope not, but can see it. :-/

Frederick and Jaylon Smith both were big reaches. Hopefully this one turns out similar.

So Hill is injury prone?

Collins was not injury prone coming in from Nebraska in 2016. Neither is Hill.

Collins has broken his foot three years in a row and therefore has been limited. The poster was comparing Hill to Collins...

I know and I was bringing up the fact both came into Dallas with a clean bill of health. What's happened after for Collins is moot point. Their play is identical in that they're gap shooters who when on athleticism and have poor leverage and technique. Collins was praised for being a wrestler it doesn't translate in the pros. He wins verse bad offensive lines and is non existent against good ones.

Inconclusive.. Collins full potential is unknown do to multiple freak injuries...

This headline is deceiving. It says in the article Marinelli hands this to every player that walks in the door.

I do this with every guy from a free agent to a draft pick, just my own copy of it, back and forth, front and back,” Marinelli said. “It talks about how we play, what I ask of you in practice, day of games, all of it. I am very clear of it. I said to him, ‘If it doesn’t fit you, tell me now, because you will not be happy here. I told him to keep it, and he said, ‘Coach I feel great about this.

This is not a real contract. This is just a tool Marinelli uses to motivate his players.

Juan Thornhill is closer than Trystan Hill, in my opinion.

Possible. But Thornhill as of now wasn’t a day one starter. He was going to have to beat out Heath. Not to say he can’t be beaten out but I don’t think it was for certain to happen.

 

[Wood]

this should be at top.

Found out I'm related to Trysten Hill via Facebook after the pick yesterday. So thats cool!
