Booker: we got a football player

[phildadon86]

BPA. Grant was most definitely a top 15 player, in my mind. I wanted Grant. I see exactly why they drafted Booker. We now have a new LT, RT and RG. Brilliant. I only wish I'd have thought of that.

Also, someone else pointed out that Grant would likely be a two down player for us, which makes it a tad more difficult to justify a round one pick.

Don't get me wrong. I see pass rush ability in Grant. I just think this kills more birds with one proverbial stone.

They crushed it. If T Smith isn't going to tackle, where is he going? They can't both play LT....

Guyton is playing LT.

Smith LG

Booker RG.

The defense side is deeper wait for day two or three

Day 2 or 3 they need a WR and RB. Defense won’t be addressed until the 5th round on. Mainly because we don’t have a 4th. And I won’t give me thoughts on that dumb move either.

 

[phildadon86]

Who would you have taken that was left. That would’ve been better.

Would have traded down and taken Hampton.

This teams offensive weapons are currently.

CeeDee Lamb.

You can have the best line in football. Great. Who’s Dak throwing to? Who’s running the rock? Williams? Tolbert? lol.

Booker wasn’t a need. They have Hoffman who played very well.

To me this pick is saying “Guyton may not make the leap, let’s add another first rounder and see what happens.”

I think the kid from New England can be a starter in this league
We’re going to trade for a wide receiver
Running back will come in the third round

I remember people telling me the same thing when I wanted to Zach Martin. And the defense was as shambles.

Big difference is.

Martin came into a team that had weapons on offense. Bryant, Murray, Witten, Williams, etc.

This team right now as it stands has Lamb.

That’s it.

 

[Whirlwin]

i would take two players, one because this team doesnt want to address it but it will be to be addressed 1 of 2 ways.

Give me, at 12, because we re drafting for impact and value. I ll take CB Jahdae Barron, and we all know why. Or give me Derrick Harmon and we all know why. This team refuses to address the impacts at the spot and the value and how to start recovering from choices we think are sexy but are not.

This player at this pick could have been had or addressed for the less value and impact at a later round.

We are talking about a team here, no one player is going to put this team over the hump. JJ knows this but the more crucial point is, he knows with authority he can tell this fanbase what to enjoy and you guys WILL drink with a 30 percent price hike.

Again, I remember them telling me the same thing when I want Zack Martin and our defense was a shambles. This solidifies the offensive line.

Love the pick.. we finally doing something to fix the run game

Seems like a corny dude with the potential to be a penalty machine.
Appears undisciplinedon film very slow footwork is a straight ahead. Booker has trouble getting out around the end on pulls - he’s far from a sure bet.

He has shown nothing that tells me he can be a starter in this league.

That’s true, but I think by the end of the draft we will have our weapons

and they were right, Zach Martins career was wasted here. Just because you get a HOFer as JJ has proven to you, doesnt mean it puts you over the hump OR does anything for the team.

How many championships have we hoisted with HoFers on this team this century? Exactly, its NOT about that, that formula does NOT put every team over the hump.

THIS IS NOT A HARD PROBLEM.

Booker is a stud. Doesn’t make him the right pick.

You also said the cowboys would be blown out by the giants multiple times and the giants lost by 40 plus both times. Your opinion is useless here.

I’m from New England, did you watch the Buffalo game. I’m a cowboy fan because of Roger Staubach. My military days.

we say this every year. It doesnt pan out and guess what we ll say next year?

Whether his career was wasted or not, it’s not the point. I can’t help with Jones do. They never wanna get that defensive tackle. I keep asking for.

I would have loved him at 20 how about that?

We made the playoff three out of the last four seasons. The only thing we were missing was that defensive tackle

Sure. Because now they have to force picks in the next couple rounds.

This teams ideas on FA are its downfall every year.

Instead of spending little money on Williams and sanders and having to draft a RB (which they have 2 rounds to do it now) they could have brought in a legit RB and drafted DT then WR. Or bringing in a Keenan Allen for example would have negated the need to draft a WR. They tie their own hands every year and then sell
It to the fan base. It’s laughable

Yeah, but we weren’t picking at 20
