DMN: Bob Sturm: Would the Cowboys draft Robert Nkemdiche? How high is too high when...

[tyke1doe]

The jumping out of a window thing scares me. Also, from what I've watched of Nkemdiche, it seems like he gets a lot of easy penetration into the backfield. It was hard for me to tell if it was because he's really that good, or if it was that he was going up against awful guards that will never sniff the NFL. I'm 50-50 on him. Not sure how I'd feel if he was the pick.

I understand your reservations and share them.

Ultimately, if the team drafted him, I would root for the guy and focus on his positives, as I'm usually a glass half full kinda guy. I was young once and did my fair share of drugs and stupid things, though I can't say I've ever jumped out of a window.

The "spice" and window issues aren't even what bother me the most. From the film I've seen of Nkemdiche, the guards he goes up against just look like turnstiles. I can't figure out if it's because he's set them up from previous plays, or if they're just bad OL.

the best dt in the draft falling to round 2? hmmm, not happening

Who would have thought Gregory would've fell to 60? Plus, he didn't go through a window.
