I'm getting 2009 draft vibes from this draft

[grgnfg420]

First off let me say I don’t think any draft could be as bad as 09…

But the front office seems to be drafting with the exact same mindset from 09

I’m happy with the picks but they all felt like reaches for need or a last second scramble pick cause the guy they really wanted was just taken…

Anyone else getting 09 vibes from this draft?

Was that the special teams draft

No doubt, they seem unpreparedfor the draft.

No doubt, they seem unpreparedfor the draft.

Because they have two head coaches and one is trying to set up the future and one is trying to save his job

The 09 draft was from a completely different staff and they drafted for special teams. This is not a special teams draft.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Yup

 

[JoeyBoy718]

This is like the 3rd string draft.

 

[DFWJC]

Nah…not even close

This defense is now versatile and complete. If we get one of these good young backs in the 4th then Im looking at one huge hole left on our team and its a guard. Big hole mind you.

And no I dont see these as special teams guys. WE got two good starters in two positions of need in the first two rounds.

I really don’t know how you could be happy with the picks if you feel like they’re reaches and are mentioning this draft with the 2009 draft. No one is going to be happy with this draft if they’re getting the 2009 vibe. Lol

 

[DoctorChicken]

Nah, I’m pretty familiar with my vibes and how they vibe with me. What the vibes think, how they know. And I’m getting a 1974 Steelers draft vibe for us so far.

We are free to keep on partying, amigos.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Not even close. Cowboys want to win the trenches. They seriously addressed it too. There is a lot to be excited about. Stopping the run. Improving run offense. Really like this draft.

 

[Carson]

I get your drift and what you’re thinking. But take a step back

- Mazi Smith -> monster DT and run stuffer. Will start / rotate with Big Hankins.

- Luke Schoonmaker -> big upside guy, great blocker, clutch 3rd down player. Plus player and can play the Y.

- DeMarvion Overshown -> Off ball LB and helps depth and likely falls into the Kearse role.

Yeah, it’s not the player you liked, I liked etc. But we have to trust McClay and the scouts to do their job. I feel going with Zavala in the 3rd would’ve been better. But the way they are drafting makes me think they will go

Smith - Smith - Biadasz - Martin - Steele at OL

 

[HungryLion]

No. I don’t get that feeling at all.

Mazi is our best DT already.

Schoonmaker will be our first or second TE and play a ton of snaps.

Overshown may not start but has the potential to be a starter eventually.

Some of yall are so overreactive. I hope it's just a sports fan thing

 

[Sheepherder]

Because they have two head coaches and one is trying to set up the future and one is trying to save his job

And as you say, it looks like a mess.

 

[Flamma]

Wasn't 2009 the year we didn't have any high end picks?

 

[Pricedog]

I don't think any of the picks are necessarily bad, but it's clearly a need draft. The aren't going BPA, which is a tad disappoining since they put themselves in a position to do so. I'd expect OG or RB in the 4th Rd.

 

[J12B]

No doubt, they seem unpreparedfor the draft.

There were rumored reports that Jerry, Stephen and McClay all had the draft scheduled for next week on their calendars.

 

[DFWJC]

People invoking the 2009 reference need to go re-look at how putrid that was.
its not in the same universe.
I think the first 7 picks had only a handful of starts for Dallas in their entire COMBINED careers
