Deuce Vaughn Will Be a Beast for Us

[Wichitaleafs]

Uh. Deuce is a complete stud.

 

[xwalker]

He’s not a guy that can play WR. He’s a 5’-5” RB with incredible open field quickness and elusiveness that’s great at screens and swing passes out of the backfield. He’s basically a more talented Darren Sproles. Time will tell if he’s as successful in the NFL.

Beasley was 5-7...

Might want to tap the breaks a bit. He’s not playing in the Big 12 anymore. Nothing against him; just saying…

 

[xwalker]

I will repeat no 6th round draft pick that has not taken a snap in an nfl game is a more talented version of Darren sproles...you can spin it any way you want but that's not even remotely accurate nor fair to how talented an adversary sproles was

I'm warming up to this pick, big time. I think my favorite pick was Villiami Fehoko.. But Duece Vaughn will be a player for us.

He gives our offense a different flavor, and there's going to be a different game against San Fran.

I really like his ability to be a RB while also being a WR. In other words, we've got our own guy who can play WR and RB!

Vaughn had more rushing yards than any of the top 10 RBs in this draft.

Vaughn had more receiving yards than any RB in this draft.

Yep. This guy kind of seems like the Kellen Moore of RBs.

5'5 is really freakin' small. There are a lack of Darren Sproles in the league for a reason.

About 50 rushes and 50-60 receptions a season and hope he makes the most of out those.

Guys, stating he's more talented than Darren sproles is just flat out dumb...if he was he would have been a different prospect....

I like the pick, I like the player but the comparison outside of some basic measurements pre draft is ludicrous

But then he ended it with time will tell if he's successful in the league.

Let's put the anointing oil away for a bit....and celebrate the pick for what it is, but remember he's got a long way to go to be Darren sproles or even in the same breath as him.

That's all

Deuce is the mighty midget, dont try and use Turpin as a comparison, vastly different.

Do you have any confidence they will properly even use Deuce? They typically never carve out for these guys.

Knowing the Cowboys he will be a returner and catch a few passes.

Would love for them to feature this kid in a package within the offense. Just dont see them doing it.

 

[Fritsch_the_cat]

seen him play on TV and loved what I saw

I saw him too but hated what I saw, because he was shredding my Longhorns. Love this pick.

If DV ends up being a Dave Meggett type than we win with this pick.
BTW, Megget had two inches on him at 5'7".
Sproles is the extreme comparison, and Megget being the base line.

The man is a beast not a gadget guy...he's the guy that can split the load with Pollard

Some of y'all need to watch at least highlights before you throw a player away

I just watched every carry vs TCU, Oklahoma and Texas. Impressive...this guy is tough as nails and is not afraid of contact...often fights for extra yards and lives inside.

Not at all what I was expecting.

Meggett is a good comp but he is much more durable and a workhorse than Meggett was. Meggett was a change of pace and returner. This guy can do more at RB.

Dallas hasn’t had a gadget guy in years. I hope MM can get this guy involved and with the ball in space.

Agree that guy has moves, one cut and boom.

You really gotta look at this guy's receiving game. It's underrated. I wasn't paying enough attention to him because of his size, but I think, at times, he'll also be playing some WR.

I'm good with that...and just for facts sake my whole chain of posts was in reference to calling this kid superior to Darren sproles talent..

I love the pick and the player and the story...hope for the best

You're right. He's got moves. But I wouldn't limit him to just being a gadget guy. I think he can take Turpin's spot, and be an active player, weapon on offense. It's unconventional, but players like him have worked out before.

I'm not surprised a lot of the players that were drafted were players ranked lower by the media, because there's so much more than highlight films.
