Cowboys Get Sam Williams

[America's Cowboy]

Sam Williams said his slowest 40 time while training for the Combine was a 4.40 40. He said he was disappointed with the 4.46 he ran at the Combine. He was expecting to run a 4.38 at least.

Yeah that's what I'm happy about. We needed to upgrade our offensive line and front 7. I'm happy we are addressing those needs. I would have been upset if we drafted a TE, CB, RB or WR.

I don't know much about this guy so I'll have to lean on your guys' expertise on this one. I'm happy with addressing the front 7. I'm feeling the consensus is 50/50 on this guy. Anyone who wants to provide info on him feel free. It would be appreciated.

He’s a solid pick. Pass rush specialist. Not good against the run. Off the field issues like all our 2nd round picks.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Wake Roy when Round 3 is over he may “ hear more “ pass along that brilliance .

Still can’t think of any receivers you want in the third round! Lol

No doubt you will love whomever they take. Woof woof.

 

[RonWashington]

The idea of Tank and Williams on each edge is a good one . Armstrong is good in that mix .

 

[America's Cowboy]

So are you conceding that maybe your not General Manager material?

Make yourself useful and go spray some water on the flower beds outside the fire station. I would school you in football.

 

[RonWashington]

Roy still “ hearing things “ ….let us know some brilliance Roy .

 

[Acceptablename]

Well we do know that D Quinn worked out SWilliams and wanted him enough to draft him the 3rd rd. But that doesn’t seem to matter to a few that know better. It’s funny really

 

[CowboyRoy]

in the highlights, I am seeing that OC are double teaming him and always chipping him. That is good compliment, but Kiper ranked him at 125? Not that he is a draft guru and right all the time

yah kiper had him 3rd or 4th round. I don’t agree. And considering we can use him as a pass rush specialist and have Armstrong for first down it makes more sense for us. I still would rather have jermain Johnson.

There is so much more to being an EDGE besides pass rushing. I mean, why should Cowboy opponents even bother passing the ball.

Williams is not a good run defender so his pass rushing abilities will typically be irrelevant. How important is a pass rush on 2nd and 2?

I'm impressed with his speed but he need power to defend his space. We'll see.

we have Armstrong in there on run downs.

 

[baltcowboy]

Below average against the run and 2 sexual battery charges...unreal.

You left out charges dropped but I forgot that in this new America you are guilty no matter what.

And that's been our problem. Sacks are going to be down on the Cowboys no matter who is playing the edge. We're always at 2nd and 5 and 3rd and 2. We need to stop the run. It would be nice if they traded up for Travis Jones.

 

[Aven8]

He reminds me of Micha rushing the passer and explodes. Been my cat for awhile now. Love it

 

[RonWashington]

Has Jalen Tolbert South Alabama gone off the board yet ? Would add to the wide receiver talent day one and help out quite a bit while Gallup is on the mend. Could see him CEE DEE & Washington in three receiver set . Good value pick .

I agree. I think that was a missed opportunity. Dean as well.

It's the way it is. Dallas rarely, if ever, trade up in the first 3 rounds. Even if a player falls.

What bothers me is we really didn't even have to trade up! Both those dudes were just sitting there in the 2nd.

 

[RonWashington]

Stick it Cowboy Roy I nailed the 3rd round pick before they made it . Home run . They needed a receiver and I called it Tolbert it is .

 

[Malhavoc]

I really like Tolbert. A nice get.

 

[RonWashington]

This has been a solid draft through three rounds . Help in every area they needed help. Both the picks tonight are solid .

Dak has a nice target coming in and Williams helps the edge . Sets up the last day . And Stephen Jones might be wrong the first pick might just be better at guard then at tackle and 77’s future replacement . He may be 52’s permanent replacement .
