whats wrong with that pick? Who exactly has replaced the 5 time all-pro Glover? You really don't understand how good Glover was.

It's not that some fans have underestimated La'Roi's value, rather that some see Bunkley as a poor fit to anchor a 3-4 front, myself included. Bunkley is a fantastically talented DT, but much like La'Roi his strength is as a 3-gap under tackle. He'll terrorize OLs with his quickness and agility, but he's not the classic wide-bodied mauler that eats up blockers and stuffs the run that's necessary in this LB heavy scheme that allow the ILBs to do their jobs. Bunkley is an ideal 4-3 under tackle, but a poor fit as a 3-4 anchor, IMHO.

What a professional Roy is. Look at the type of comments he makes when someone disagrees with his opinion.

The rest of you need to get a clue. Dallas isn't drafting a safety at No. 18 in the first round. Sorry but you may want to come to grips to that before the draft you don't go into denial.

Yeah, that's a guy I want to give my money to.

lol, copyright laws.

I beleive I wrote an article about Bunkley a few weeks ago. He's going to be a monster in the NFL. I even wanted Dallas to trade up to get the kid. How can we go into 2006 with an upgrade at WR, OL and LB yet have no one to come aboard to replace LaRoi Glover. Kinda like a double negative IMO.

Bunkley can use the first season to be our pass rushing NT on third downs and spell Ferguson whenever needed. Eventually he moves into the starting lineup. After what Ferguson did last season the eventual part might come by midseason.

Bunkley was 306 at the combine, he's the same body type as Glover but he's like 15-20lbs heavier. Besides, numbers dont mean a thing, it's how the player does when he's on the field.
