My issue with Barmore is this:
For the last 4 games of the season he looked like a guy that was well worth a top 15, if not 10, pick.
But the rest of the season...he looked no better than Dixon or McNeil.
I believe I read he had an ankle injury in the spring that could be the reason he didn’t his full stride until late. Or is he just inconsistent? If I felt sure that we would get the player from the last 4 games I would take Barmore at 10, just not sure how possible it is to feel confident in that.
I mean, yeah a trade down wpuld be ideal but his comp is Chris Jones and Cowboy fans are turning up their nose. Its hilarious to me. Believing in ole Trysten Hill lol
I'll take Lamb over Jefferson. and Grant will go between pick 30 and 45.Well, we're good about getting our eyes fixed on perceived value, even if we have no clue how players will turn out. Rankings are fun for creating draft scenarios and what ifs, but really that's all they are really worth.
Take us taking Lamb last year. Most of us were very excited to get a player ranked in the top 10 by many experts. We probably would not have been as excited if our team had selected Justin Jefferson instead, since he was ranked behind not only Lamb, but Jeudy and Ruggs as well. Reset those rankings after their rookies seasons, and Jefferson goes first.
Truth is, every year some players go higher than predicted and some lower, sometimes much lower. We might be talking in draft threads about taking a guy like Richie Grant in the second round and he might not go until the fourth, or he might be taken in the first. It's interesting to watch, especially to see if teams see what you see in a player and whether that player ends up meeting your expectations or falling short.
Those who say they've been right on the value of every player they've ever wanted Dallas to take are either lying or have a short memory. Yet, a lot come back year and year and pretend that they know which players should be taken at what point.
I want Barmore, but I don't know what the team thinks his value is and I don't know if he'll turn out to be what I think he can be. If the team takes him at 10 or 15 or 44, then I'll hope he is everything I believe he is. If not, then I'll hope that the team was right in passing up the opportunity.
Lamb over justin jefferson? Based on what?I'll take Lamb over Jefferson. and Grant will go between pick 30 and 45.

Based on how Lamb fits with Dallas and Dak. Lamb is a damn good player. If aint broken you don't fix it.Lamb over justin jefferson? Based on what?
I'd bet a lot of money that Grant goes before the 3rd round.So you believe and maybe that will be the case. But I'm sure you've always perfectly predicted when players will go.
What!?!?!? InterestingBased on how Lamb fits with Dallas and Dak. Lamb is a damn good player. If aint broken you don't fix it.

Somebody gets it. Dudes on here have egos so big they think if a guy isnt in an experts top list its a bad pick. They trust them more than NFL guys. The logic is amazingHe is a fine player and we're lucky to have him. My point was that if scouts had known what we know now about Jefferson, he would have been a top 10 pick instead of the 22nd pick. So if Barmore goes 10 instead of 22nd, I don't think it should be written off as a bad move. Who are we to say that picking Surtain would be better just because some draft gurus have him rated as a top 10 pick? It might turn out that they are right, it might turn out they are wrong or both players may go on to great careers and it won't really matter.
The ratings are all over the board with Barmore, so I won't be surprised to see him taken anywhere from the top 10 to 50. If he's top 10, then teams see what I see when grading him. If he's 50, then either I've judged him wrong or it will be proven that teams did.

I know this has ended poorly in the past...but could also be a sign he’s going to be drafted a lot higher than we all think
The funny thing about this is Barmore actually performed on the highest level. Nobody cared about Kinlaw until senior bowl PRACTICES lol. But you have clueless dudes coming on here acting like they know what they're talking about when comparing the two. Id take a guy who dominated in the national championship games than all star practice.
"If scouts had hindsight..." lmaoHe is a fine player and we're lucky to have him.
