If you don't love this draft

[Risen Star]

Your optimism is sickening.

Hope I'm wrong but after RD2 it looks like a draft where we got smaller and slower. Mostly guys who are limited to role player status. Several teams drafting around us had drafts I prefer.

That's not to say they won't be really great in their role, but I just prefer to mix it up on day 3 with some guys with down-the-line potential to develop into more. We mixed it up last year and it's one of the things that made '16's draft so compelling.

I don't see this. Slow in my viewpoint is Witten.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

The Cowboys nailed it. This draft was a massive success. Having Charlton and Awuzie fall to them was unexpected; and trading up to get Woods was my favorite move.

Remember, the 5th we gave up to get Woods will be cancelled out by us getting some comp picks from this year's free agent losses. He didn't cost a thing, really.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

In the draft, you aren't just looking at your present needs, but also at the future. In 3 years when Dak and Elliott are in their primes, this very young team around them right now will be seasoned and ready to dominate.

I know, I was just referring to New England's team in 3 yrs with a 43 year old Brady.

Marinelli must feel like a kid on Christmas Day with all his new toys
dont forget the best part- Drew giving Philly a smackdown witnessed by the whole country that they will never live down

You could just see it on his face how much he was loving that. I thought it was great but I hope Philly doesn't decide to put it on repeat in the locker room from now till we play.....

Yeah, Belichick has the Pats in 'win now' mode trying to squeeze the last few ounces of life out of the Brady era.

Given what the Pats did last season, and coming from 25 points down in the Super Bowl, I wouldn't be surprised if they make the Super Bowl at least 1 more time before Brady hangs it up.

This a a very nice draft without a doubt especially considering we were drafting late in every round.

Can we say that Chaz Green might be the most important player on our roster that was not mentioned today?

This is likely the reason Dallas didn't get OL today, feeling good about Chaz.

 

[Dallas_Cowboys50]

Yep I love it, couple guys Id of rather had but overall good stuff!....especially gettin Xavier Woods in the 6th...

 

[Bowdown27]

I can't believe how this draft went. I was hoping de would fall but taco is plug and play. perfect for what we need. and drafting our 2 corners and woods in the 5th ???? come on. I'm ecstatic how this went

 

[CT Dal Fan]

My only problem with this draft was that it was in Philly. I think I wore out the "mute" button on my TV remote from whenever the Eagles made a pick and they started singing that Fly Eagles Fly song. Ugh.

Draft: A
Drew Pearson's smack talk: A++

Also like Bradie James adding "America's Team" in round three and George Teague's "settle this on the field in November" talk in round four. Trolling Eagle fans is priceless.

We got Woods in the SIXTH. I still can't believe it.

We got Woods in the SIXTH. I still can't believe it.

Teams downgraded him due to his less than ideal height and speed. I see a guy with 14 career picks and assume he did something right!!

 

[jazzcat22]

I'll tell you if I love it 2-3 years from now.

So that means in 1-2 years we will get your thoughts on Dak and Zeke?

They will be ready to dominate in 2018. I won't say the words but the initials are SB.

 

[speedkilz88]

But I see a lot of safeties that are 5-11 197 that run a 4.54

 

[CATCH17]

I feel good about Chaz the player but I don't know if he has more then 8 games a year in him.

Exactly, which is why Woods was such a steal. I see him playing a lot this year; maybe even starting before too long.
