This guy is a horrid pick.
Another AOA.
It seems like you can't get picked by the Cowboys unless you are injured or a project. The first round seems to be the only round that is immune to their drafting philosophy.
Is this draft another 2009 draft plus Claiborne? I have never heard of any of the last three picks. I know the answer, "The Cowboys's scouts do." Well you would think some of these draft gurus would know something positive about them.
I am sick with the way things are going. I was not sold on trading up in the first round and losing our second pick, but after processing it I got excited and I'm glad we got Claiborne. I didn't think we gave too much when you can get an elite blue chip top 6 player in the draft.
However, I heard Polian say at the beginning of the day that rounds 4-7 are the rounds that make for championships. After the first round pick I thought we would have a great draft, but now my optimism has gone down the toilet. I now have to wonder if we would have been better off staying put in round one and taking each round with the best pick on our board with need as our reference. It seems trading the first two picks for Claiborne has sucked the like out of the draft instead of energizing it.
