Cowboys Get Alarming Draft Label From Mel Kiper

[offlimits]

Tbh Mel Kiper is the Jim Cramer of football

Cramer, some 20-25 years ago, (A Goldman guy) ran a very successful hedge fund. Now, he is just a clown on a clown TV show. NEVER take his investing advice.

The Cowboys tried to trade down. They couldn't get the value of the pick so they stayed pat.

Zack Martin must have been a horrible pick at 16 also!!!

I guess every team from 12 to 21 didn't value Hampton the same as Kiper so they were all wrong to pass on him too.

Zach Martin was a tackle in college. So he was more of a premium pick versus a pure OG like Booker. If not an elite OT, rule of thumb is make a college OT a OG, and never draft a pure OG in the 1st round unless the OG is a C/OG flex.

Btw I’ve also seen it said that Booker’s 21 reps on the bench were pretty embarrassing for a guy who talks about making people quit.

Wait for the grade which will come 3 years from now.

Also, Mel Kiper, who I knew personally we he started with his blue boo years ago knows football personnel. I agree with him regarding not picking a pure OG in the 1st round, and I already stated why.

You guys got to stop drinking the Jerry Dumbo GM Jones Kool Aid. To think less of Mel Kiper vs. Jerry Jones when it comes to evaluating players and picks is incredulous.
