Back issues w/Slater?

[Cowboyny]

I’m told there has been some concern over back issues with Slater-Pauline.

I take everything with a grain of a salt this close to the draft, but players just did their medicals and some leaks are starting to come out. If Slater does have issues with his back, it could affect our pick at 10 if he slides.

I like Slater, and if he's not an option to go ahead of us, or at our pick, that would extremely limit us

I'm not sure if this helps or hurts. I don't want him. I do want him to go before pick 10 but if he doesn't, maybe it helps eliminate him from the conversation if he was in play

A team like Carolina will probably take a Tackle over a corner, now they could take Surtain off the board.

Long as the Cowboys doctor signs off on him, I would draft him and not think twice. Barring injury he looks like a 10 year plug and play starter on the OLine which has a high value IMO. Again this FO has blown too many high picks the last few years. I like Pauline but let's not forget he was working for the Eagles who could certainly use OLine help.

Note the longer arms lol

They weren’t lying when they said he was a Zach Martin clone...even has the same injury. Sheesh!!

I already have mixed feelings on Slater at 10.
Id be fine getting him and a 2nd or 3rd in a trade down, but not m top choice at 10.

Tyron was one of our best picks. Getting another 10 year LT at 10 would be a smart thing to do.

If healthy, one of the safest picks in the entire draft. Kind of like Surtain on defense, both high floor players who have excellent technique
