Drafted by Cowboys Cowboys select Shavon Revel CB

[Proof]

d

I don't mind the pick at the value they got him, but he's not young either - already 24.

dang. so if he lives up to his billing we might only have him for 8 years?? :-(

How does he have a total 99th percentile coverage grade if he has a 0 in a category?

Shouldn’t that bring his overall score down quite a bit?

it means he has NEVER played in the slot.

 

[JoeKing]

This is a gamble. A player recovering from a torn ACL. There is no guarantee he'll be ready for training camp. High risk high reward. I acknowledge he's a quality CB but who will he be when he returns to football?

 

[conner01]

He ripped his ACL in September. Does anyone know how his recovery is going?

Suppose to be ready by camp

 

[TheDank]

On tape talent wise this is my favorite pick for us and I thought he would go much earlier. The risk is worth the reward.

i’m stoked, but “best of diggs” is a huge oversell

Not really. I am not a huge Diggs fan and think his contract is one of the worst on the books. I am speaking more about how they play as long rangey corners that make plays. The biggest difference is Revel will pop you right in the mouth. Remember that shameful business decision Diggs made in the last 49er playoff game?

sure. his “best” though is best ball hawk in the game. Revel may wind up a better overall player, and i’d love that. but diggs best is all pro and record setting

Why gamble?

Jerry gone Jerry!

The people crying about the Revel pick and the EZ pick are upset because it wasn't their guy, it's not because of a simple ACL tear or he's undersized. Most of us on here see the value and talent we picked up regardless of if it was our guy or not. For the ones crying I hope the cat and dog are hiding under the bed and are not within kicking distance.

Another bad pick, they must be planning to sign Zeke

Bryan Broadus liked him. First round talent. Good pick from my standpoint.

Our doctor did the surgery. He’s cleared to play in July

 

[bleachedwheat]

Great pick, it would have been a good pick at 44. 3 first round talents... Let's Go!

I'm sure if you think really hard, you can figure this out…

 

[Praxit]

..if he's a shut down corner. Prayers answered.

 

[OGSixshooter]

There's our typical injured pick

It's all all too familiar. Offensive line 1st round, edge rusher 2nd round...or vice versa. The bargain injury pick. Oh...and getting a lineman with "Ty" in their name...

 

[panchucko]

We have Deuce. Stop with the hate.

and we have a line now

In 2025 he figures to be a shell of his former self. People keep focusing on whether he can play this year. I don't even care because I know he needs another year before he can get back to where he was.

That's why he was available at that pick. If the league believed he would be all good and back in July he'd have gone two rounds earlier.

Jaclyn Smith all over again

Jaclyn Smith all over again

Two separate injuries.

ACLs are common. Smith had drop foot
