Good I'm interested in him. Just hope dallas doesn't think they're going to get him In the 2nd because it won't happen.

 

[hendog]

I would welcome him in a slight trade down.

 

[Gaede]

I'm good with Lynch as well. Lots of awesome tools there

 

[Hardline]

I only take Wentz or Goff as day one starters.
Now Lynch is a perfect sit on the bench for 2 or 3 years QB.

Better yet. Dak Prescott can learn on the bench for 2-3 years and not have to use a 1st round pick on him.

Easily a top 10 pick, possibly top 5. His fall has been greatly exaggerated IMO.

When all is said and done I think he will be the first QB off the board

Biggest hands of the Qbs-- know a few of you have a hand fetish.

Yep!

If we could get an extra 2nd and grab Lynch, I be a happy bunny.

Not for me, if we're going to go non-first round may as well take someone who at least looks like he could be a QB someday. Lynch has bust practically stamped on his forehead. He's a gigantic roboQB from Nowheresville U who has no analog in NFL history of any QB, much less a good one.

I don't think that any of these QBs are day one starters. Goff needs to learn how to play under center. Wentz has 23 games of starting experience - he needs to learn a lot. Lynch needs a lot of mechanical work and refinement.

That being said, just because they shouldn't be thrown to the wolves doesn't mean that the Cowboys shouldn't look to take one of them at #4. I would prefer Goff myself.

I too am starting to prefer Goff. That doesn't mean Wentz isnt still a good pick. They may both be gone by the 4th
our pick

Lynch would probably benefit the most from just working under center and being with Tony Romo for three seasons...huge top end in that scenario.

Dak will sit on the bench for 20 years and never be good enough to replace Romo. He is not a NFL QB talent .

Agree and I've watched wentz for his 2 years under center.....needs time. Senior bowl showed that. Wentz has the easiest path to his upside. Lynch with his mechanics and spread off. Expier. Has big upside but longer path to it. . Goff is Steve Walsh 2.0...upside leveling off

The search for Tony Romo's successor continues with the Cowboys set to interview Memphis quarterback Paxton Lynch, the prospect said Friday at the NFL scouting combine. He's set to sit down with the team Friday night, he said.
Lynch is a tall option under center, standing at 6-7, 245 pounds. 

He didn't have many offers coming out of high school but evolved into a great fit for Memphis' uptempo offense. His biggest win with the Tigers came in an upset of Ole Miss, 37-24 last season, as he passed for 384 yards, 3 TDs and 1 INT.

In the past, Lynch has said he has no problem sitting behind a quarterback like Romo and learning the pro game a little better.

"I'd be more than OK with doing whatever was best for me and the team and whatever team I got picked up by. When I first got to school, I didn't want to redshirt or anything. I thought I could go in there and play, but I realized later on down the road as I grew up and matured, I realized that redshirting is a good thing. You get a chance to sit back and learn what you need to learn and take care of your business off the field. I know if I got to sit behind somebody like a veteran quarterback, whoever it may be, I know that that would be a great learning experience to develop me mentally and physically in the game, give me a year just to sit back and see how you handle things professionally."

He's my pick of the 3.

Well....He ran about what I expected....Decent arm strength.....Footwork looked pretty smooth...

Things that bothered me.....

Would have liked to have seen more urgancy in his footwork. He looked like he was going 3/4 speed in his drills. His accuarcy was ok.....but not great.

Overall workout wasn't too bad....but wasn't blown away either....

I was just expecting more. Really wanted to see him show off his arm strength...and he didn't do that.

He needs time under center and learning footwork with a quick release...about a two to three year study. But very good arm strength...

I especially like him as a prospect now that it's been revealed a couple teams were "spooked" by his medial eval.
