Did we make a mistake by not drafting Kolby Listenbee?

[Galian Beast]

For a team that lacks speed on offense, I can't help but feel like we've put ourselves in poor position to really make the best use of our investments on offense.

****video deleted due to language****

Not in love with the way he catches the ball, but his speed is ridiculous. It's an element that I think we set this offense off. And even if he doesn't turn into a great receiver, I think he would fit a role that we desperately needed here.

I just really wish we had a guy that could stretch the middle of the field deep.

Before we start making threads about every person we might question about making a mistake about not drafting....just ask an answer in this thread now. We will call it the spilled milk thread.

Did we make a mistake by not drafting (insert name here)?

Wide receiver Rodney "Lucky" Whitehead (5-9 1/2, 174) ran the 40 in 4.41 and 4.37 seconds. He had a 36-inch vertical jump and 10-foot-1 broad jump. He did the short shuttle in 4.18 seconds and the three-cone drill in 6.89 seconds. Whitehead had 20 strength lifts. Whitehead caught the ball well in the positional drills and he could be a priority free-agent acquisition for a team following the draft.

We have speed, it's whether the coaches have the appetite to use it. None of these guys are faster than either Bruce or Lucky. We don't lack speed, we lack the desire to use it instead of the established starters.

In addition to Lucky...Butler is another guy with speed (and he also has good size).

At 6-3/215, Butler ran in the 4.39 range at his pro day. He also posted a 10'9" broad jump, 6.70 3 cone, and a 39" vertical.

I honestly don't think the guy could run a dig route w/o rounding off his break 7 yards deep....His change of direction is that poor

In that clip...he runs 2 routes....And only 2... A fly pattern...and deep posts. Honestly...does he even know what a route tree is?

Hint...It's not this

What's his forty time and where did he go in the draft and to whom?

 

[DTown214]

From the 4th round on I was hoping we'd take him with each of our next picks. Loved him in college and we really could've used his speed for sure.

Dude... you're already on the internet.

Shouldve got somebody instead of wasting a pick on dak.

That's actually a pretty funny link.

 

[Hardline]

He was overshadowed by Josh Doctson.

 

[speedkilz88]

From what I interpreted from Broaddus he was on their radar in the 6th round.

They had CB Anthony Brown with a 4th round grade so I would assume that he was much higher on their board than Listenbee who was thought to be a 6th round type. Probably would have got him had he fallen to the later 3 picks in that round.

I think Vince Mayle may make everyone forget about not drafting a WR.

(I think your video violates language rules)

Man, that Rodney guy sounds great- wish we had him. Rue, rue, rue.

When will the Cowboys try to get better on offense? LOL.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Rue a 6th round pick? Nope.

 

[mattjames2010]

Is he even capable of breaking a tackle? Looked like Witten, smack his leg, and he'll be falling.

Alexander Wright part deux.
