That’s two picks I’m putting as locks

Dalton Kincaid and Tank
+1 ...think you can make case for drafting either him or Mayer coz won't need them to be that No.1 or 2 target this season allowing them to focus on other parts of their game. But next season they not only replace the catches if you lose Gallup but add more impact with blocking and pass-protecting skills.

Mendenhall and his career 4200 yards? Guess he is a little bit better. But both were trash. I get what ur sayin but using mendenhall as a sticking point was funny.
It's not about Mendenhall. It's about the thought process that led them to deciding on Felix Jones and it was entirely due to how he complimented Marion Barber.

I agree this is what I see but no specific order with the first 5 picks:

OL
TE
RB
WR
DT

I don't know the order but feel these will probably be the picks
If you remove TE and replace it with LB and I agree.

I like Tank but I worry that the Jones are getting too specific here with their TB wants/needs. They keep talking about "big back".

If we get to the middle rounds and we are TB hunting, I hope they take the best TB and not pigeon hole themselves into taking a "big back" because they think they need to replace Elliott to pair with Pollard. In other words, if the scouts say Spears is a better TB than Bigsby but they take Bigsby because he's a "big back", that would be silly IMO.
I love that these dudes think TP is small. He’s 6’ and 218lbs.

The two nitwits are already using the term "big back", so I expect to see during the draft, them taking a big back when there were other, better backs still on the board.
Agree. And with that approach, we'll be looking for a RB AGAIN next year early in the draft. Just take the best complete RB.

This and they also telegraph what they’re going to do so a team can trade up in front of to take him (ala Goedert)

These 2 are complete buffoons, I can bet you the other NFL execs laugh at these 2 behind their back
Funny thing is if they just shut up, just stick to their board and not overthink this stuff, they tend to draft pretty well.

I disagree during draft time. They pretty much tell us the direction and damn near the player most of the time.

Vander Esch … Taco … Trysten Hill … Tyler Smith … Sam Williams etc.

Yes they aren't smart enough to participate in lying season.

TJ Watt is often injured...and hasnt won a thing in the NFL. Same as his brother. Good players but not the bees knees.Lets just stop putting these guys on some pedestal like they did something.

You have Tony Pollard. Give me Achane in the 3rd and Deuce Vaughn in the 6th, and Luepke in the 7th and I will be very happy.

TP with Luepke as the blocking back. Achane and Vaughn might get injured due to size, but if they don't, they have special qualities (they aren't every down backs, but are weapons).
Dallas needs weapons in the return game, in the screen game, at slot, on sweeps.

String together enough weapons and you have a chance to score on every play, and can adjust to the defenses weakness.

so many good options in mid RDs and even late in the draft.
I agree this is a great year to have a need at RB and especially after the first round.
Tank would not be my first choice, but he is in the middle of the pack IMO, really looking forward to seeing who gets selected this year.

He mentions it at the end of the video.

Tank Bigsby out of Auburn.


It appears to me that the FO is looking for "all around" type dirty yard types. They are looking for compliments to Pollard. I think that is the wrong approach. Just get the best back out there when you draft. Dont worry about category. Although I wouldnt go out and get a really small guy.

Yeah, I actually think this is how these morons are approaching it. They want to re-create that legendary Barber/Felix Jones duo. They took Felix to compliment Barber. We have war room footage to prove it. They chose him over Rashard Mendenhall because of how he fit with Barber.

It's all kinds of dumb to approach it that way. Take the best player.
I completely agree. And MM is very much like this. Speed back, big back.

Just get the best freaking back when you pick.

Because not all RBs are created equal. Just like any other position there are tiers of talent. Zach Charbonnet is easily the 3rd best RB in this draft. And I would have no problem taking Gibbs at 26. I would crawl over broken glass to get Bijan Robinson over any of them.
I would take Charbonnet over Gibbs.
