Drafted by Cowboys Dallas selects LB Micah Parsons at 12

[lonestar2288]

The sexual assault accusation was not him, it was Gross-Matos. The hazing/assault he was accused of was suspect at best and was thrown out of court. I'm good with the player, not crazy about the selection. I'm guessing his snaps will be limited early, and a non QB player taken this high, IMO, should be an insta-starter. I hope I'm wrong, but I see them giving LVE & Smith EVERY chance to start, and Neal will see snaps at WILL, probably in most nickel pacages. Why I was in the CB draft assumption. Kids talented as all get out though, so let's hope they keep this D draft going

The stuff I heard about him from 2019 spells a heck of a player. Let's hope he continues to get better. This D just got better and certainly more physical with him, Wilson and Neal.

I like the pick.

Personally I'm glad that the expletive came before the dog and not after

this was a great night and a great start to the draft.
this is the beginning of our defense getting right.
he legitimizes our defense and our LBing Corps.
i don't care what they say...we have the best young LBs in the league as a 3-some and its not close now if LVE is healthy.
we're kickin' your candy *** and getting the ball back in the hands of Dak.
our defense is getting right.
we are turning the corner toward better days.

Lol, this is hilarious. Jerry and some fans never learn. Yet another Jerry pick that he can sell as he for a bargain because of character and/or injury issues.

With both round 1 CB's taken and with what the Cowboys still really need, who would you have picked? I'm not sold on Parsons as I think he's a character concern and wouldn't have picked him at 10 but I understand the pick given the talent since we picked up a third out of it. Let's hope he pans out and isn't an issue.

Jerry likes his gambles and there's nothing we can do to change it. All we can do is hope.

So stealing the Falcons game with the watermelon kick prevented them from getting Horn/Surtain. If they lost one more game and finished 5-11, they would have had #7 due to the strength of schedule. We will see if Parsons is worth it and if that 3rd rounder can be a part of something better.

I'm not sure if you saw Jaylon play last season. The cowboys apparently did because they used their highest pick in 5 years on a guys who plays exactly like him but meaner. He'll be gone by next off season. LVE hasn't made impact since his rookie season which was 3 years ago. We're extremely thin at LB, we're not close to the league best at anything other than maybe WR

While I like the pick. I don't love it. Since both Surtain and Horn were off the board by the time the Cowboys picked at 10, I think I would have taken the OL Slater.

Trade back up and get Barmore and its a home run draft.

I hope that happens. Then go get a CB and/or safety.

aria said: ↑
I bet he does look forward to tackling Elliott, kind of like how he tackled his teammate he was accused of sexually assaulting.

I suppose you have zero intentions of giving him a chance with the cowboys?

Reminds me of when we drafted Travis Frederick.....we had guys on here that hated the pick; He was a reach, we took him too high, he wasn't worth it, he'd be a bust, etc etc. Needless to say that terrible pick turned out to be an absolutely terrific Center!
If the pick isn't who they wanted, he might turn into a pervert who sexually assaults his team mates.

 

[Majic]

What I like most about the pick is that we stuck to our board.

Also if Mike Nolan was still the DEF Co-ordinator we would have made the same pick.

Player over scheme.

 

[Buzzbait]

Was it a smokescreen? Because soon as the corners were gone they traded down.....

I agree roc, it was no smokescreen. They were set to take Surtain till Denver upset the applecart, and like you said, THAT'S when we traded down. There was no way the Cowboys were going to pass up Surtain.

Guy will be a playmaker out of the gate. Well done Jerry.
