I don't think that I would kick sand in his eyes at the beach.He does hustle, he just doesn't know how to use the physical ability that he has.

This is why I cannot stand when fans complain about us signing veteran mid tier starters
I honestly wonder who they are trying to fool when they say things like this. So their second round guy they almost took in the first round, and their third round guy they almost took in the second. It’s like they are trying so hard to convince us they did so well here, when it’s all based on “the board”. A board that happens to be created by the same morons that the fan base trashes the other 364 days of the year.
Hill has no balance. I don’t know what it is I went back and watched his preseason film and he’s always on the ground. Weak legs ? Poor balance? He honestly played like a 7th round / UDFAHills problem is not talent and traits, his problem is effort on the field and attitude.
Brugler had him as the 80th player overall with a 2nd round grade.
C'mon, you already understand the basic reference point...don't play as if one doesn't.How is 80th overall in the 2nd round?
Give it to Griffen. The DL would be seriously upgraded over what it was the last few years.Cut Crawford, save $8 million, give that money to either Everson Griffin or Clowney.
That would complete this dream offseason. We have killed this draft.
They utilize this tactic and the "we heard New England really liked him" one as well.I honestly wonder who they are trying to fool when they say things like this.

One moment Stephen is saying there was a "1% chance that we thought Diggs would be there at 51" and a few moments later you are saying "we almost took Gallimore over Diggs." Really? A guy you liked that you were sure was not going to be there and you think, no, no, let's take this other guy instead. Most GM's, right or wrong, are confident about their boards. A guy they like is there, they pounce. A guy you love and think you have no chance at 51 is sitting there in the 40s, you trade up.
All of this presumes their board is good.
Here's the thing. If every year, a guy you "had a 2nd round grade on" is available in the 3rd round, it means that the majority of NFL teams do not agree with you. It means your board is most likely wrong.
The Cowboys absolutely nailed their first two picks and for me, the jury is out on the third one. However, this wasn't some great strategy to play the draft perfectly and land Lamb and Diggs. It was purely luck and circumstance. Even with Lamb, their 6th best player, available at 17, they still considered drafting Chaisson.
I don’t think this guy gives them much production this year. Either year two or year three. Depending on his development, McCoy will either be a Cowboy for one or two years.Unless the injury bug hits I feel like we get noticable contributions from all three top picks. Normally I dont.
What in the world are you talking about? He asked a legitimate question?C'mon, you already understand the basic reference point...don't play as if one doesn't.
It’s amazing they grabbed Gallimore in the third yet Hill was a massive reach at 58 last year. Gallimore is a quantum leap better. Gosh Marinelli did some damage.
No way is Gallimore a 2nd rounder unless the entire draft is just garbo. He was taken right where he should’ve been. Only reason Brugler had a 2nd on him was because this is a bad draft for DT’s.Somewhat freakish athlete that runs a 4.8 at 305 pounds. Needs a lot of technique work but Brugler had him as the 80th player overall with a 2nd round grade.
I'm sure the Dallas grade is similar, we just got a top 10 player, a late first rounder and then a second rounder at 17, 51 and 82.
Gillmore at 308 lbs. was even faster than Taco Charlton at 275 lbs. Thats crazy speed for a big man like him.
I agree, if you almost took that guy a round earlier and then everyone passed on him and he's there an entire round later, what does that mean? Sometimes they are right, Frederick was thought to be that way and I believe Lawrence was considered a bit of a reach too that they won on. But there also have been reach failures. Nobody cares about "your board" on draft day. It will be judged at the end of the season.They utilize this tactic and the "we heard New England really liked him" one as well.

He has Charlotte there helping him.Jerry needs to draft alone more often! Lol
