Day 3 Thread

I was never high on the RB class. Personally they can find a guy in round 6 or 7 that could be productive behind the OL they have put together.

If that’s the case then I guess we are good with Deice from late last draft.

It’s hilarious the extremes some go to. While it’s one thing to not draft a RB in the first, it’s entirely wishful thinking you will hit on one in the 5th-7th.

Who is our starting RB Rico, Deuce, Royce?

We don’t need one with this OL apparently

It sure seems like it.

Carson is a stud! Thought he was a top 100 player so incredible value.

 

[bleachedwheat]

Lovett or Rogers at 216 DT's

Competition for Brooks on Special Teams. Meh.

 

[Verdammung]

Alright, this is the first player the Cowboys have drafted I haven't watched. Quickly looking it up, the only cutup on youtube is against Kansas State; which is also the only game of consequence on his schedule.

 

[bleachedwheat]

in the 7th I like DT Lovett and Rogers, DE Harrell, C/G Turner lll.

UDFA's RB Milton or Holani, TE Rex, DT Simmons, LB Hunter or Jett, DE Green, CB Torrence or Beanie Bishop Jr., S Owens.

Supposedly, like Nacua last year, Flournoy had the fastest position drills time for receivers at the combine based on the GPS field sensors used to track player movement.

Roll off the dice on traits. Definitely a talked about small school prospect.

Watched him vs. Kansas State.

Pros: Saw some quickness on the break. Can maintain possession in traffic. Showed some extension. Fights and refuses to go down, even if he doesn't convert into YAC. Has some sustain as a run blocker. Played a mixture of X, Y, & Z receiver.

Cons: Didn't handle contact well as a route runner. Didn't really see vertical threat ability; albeit you can see his 40 time shows he can do it. Didn't convert physicality into actual production running after the catch. A few struggles gripping the defender on run blocks. Going to turn 25 during the season.

Overall: I'm good with the value in the 6th round.

 

[Verdammung]

Didn't watch Nathan Thomas. I just know we're in the 7th round and he can't be worse than Javion Cohen on my board, so I'm good.

 

[InPhiltraitor]

Zerlein had him in the 4th.

If that was that the best on the board, I’m good. Anything to put Ball and Waletzko on notice.

They’ve done a really good job building the OL. Those 2 are just about out the door.

 

[_sturt_]

Listening to the interview on the Draft Show, Thomas impresses as a well-grounded, cerebral kid.

 

[Rayman70]

is Dillon Johnson RB still there?

Finally got someone to replace Mazi's in Mazi's old slot in the depth chart. Been tellin anyone who'd listen, that was gonna happen. In fact... I'm no Nostradamus... but maybe more than I ever remember, this draft pretty much went exactly as I'd predicted.

 

[Verdammung]

Just got done watching Nathan Thomas. Gave him a 5th; maybe 6th round grade if I'm being fair, so he's decent value in the 7th round. My main takeaway is that grade is at guard and I would not play him at tackle.

 

[cnuball21]

I have to do some tape watching for some of these late round picks but man Carson is arguably the best pick we made next to Beebe IMO.
