Grade the Donovan Ezeiruaku pick

[cnuball21]

Maybe a convenient comp but the guy he reminds me a lot of is Dante Fowler. And like Fowler, I think he'll probably will find his most success as a quality passing down/pressure player rather than a 3-down player.

I think he’s a DPR year 1…but he’s pretty darn savvy against the run.

Best case scenario he gets much stronger and can be an LDE.

A, and it would have been an A+ if Will Johnson wasn't on the board. Donovan EZ is a super athletic, productive DE who looks really projectable. You rarely see pass rushers like that leave the first round, so grabbing him at 44 is a slam dunk.

I can' t believe this ,the best 2nd rd pick you could wish for great college production.

B with a chance to be an A.
long armed pass rusher off the edge.
thought by some to go in rd1...excellent pick.

dallas off to a solid start.

 

[Tabascocat]

B+ only because he isn’t a big, fat ugly in the middle!

 

[Zekeats]

He's an OLB in a 3-4. Why the hell can't they just switch to a 3-4 and let Micah tear it up already.

 

[Creeper]

LOL?

I swear they said the pick was Darius Alexander from Toledo?

I would have loved it if they took Alexander. DT is a serious need position and I think Alexander is going to be the next Justin Madubuike.

I'm hoping Flus can incorporate this into the defense.

Phil Mafah anyone?

Well done

Well done

Ty man. I had him on my radar since 2023. Everytime I saw a Clemson game he was a workhorse. He just looked the part. Great in pass pro, great power, and actually would want to run over a guy. Lastly, his top end speed caught my attention. He's not just a power back like many content creators are saying on YT. Nope. I encourage folks to go back and watch this kid. He's a man amongst boys. This might be the steal of the draft. Yes Blue is also awesome. But this kid is being slept on. He was a team Captain,leader and they ran the offense thru him. Clemson didn't exactly have a good Oline either. Speaks volumes for him. His own HC Dabo Swinney said he's going to be a star in the NFL. Very high praise.

 

[Rayman70]

Anyone old like me recall a RB from South Carolina named George Rodgers? This kid reminds me of him and his style. Nobody wants to tackle this kid when he has a head of steam. We should be arrested for larceny. We stole him.

We had a great weekend.

I just got thru watching this one idiot YouTuber that has a Dallas cowboy content channel and he called Mafah a bad pick , power back only and hes going to be lucky to make the practice squad. Lol. That was just so shocking. Many fans have lost so much trust in the Jones boys over the years they have blinders on now, even when we nail the draft. They forgot how to be happy. I hate to see that. I refuse to let the past failures influence the current success. We get an A for effort, the way I see it.

 

[Rayman70]

As a replacement for DLaw I'll take it.

The guy will be on the field more than DLaw. That's an improvement right there.

 

[J-man]

I was thrilled when the took him. Our pass rush is suddenly dangerous and deep.
Micah, EzRocku, Fowler and Sam W are all very capable of getting to the QB on a regular basis.
MPs job just got a lot easier.

3 deep.

DT is a need but I think Alexander is one of the most overrated “highly rated” prospects in the draft.
