Little strange how it feels like he is just now getting recognized in national press. He’s been tearing it up since his rookie year.

Same. I saw something in him his first start. Then later on in his rookie season I knew he was going to be special. Crazy he's just now getting attention. I could probably look at my post history and count like 10 times me telling people in the offseason not to worry about our nickel corner cause Bland was going to be a shut down corner. Imagine Diggs, Gilmore, Bland. That would have been a historical defense I think.

Two positions I was never all that concerned about after last season was CB, and TE.

I had high expectations for Bland and Fergy. Getting Gilmore was still pretty awesome. The draft was pushing TE hard so I resided myself to believing I was higher on Fergy and Hendershot than the staff.

Not sure if Bland is better than Sauce Gardner or not but pretty ballsy prediction by Patrik Walker that may not be that far off, if at all.

Honestly, I like Bland better as a CB because he tackles. Prime had the PR'er and WR thing going for him, so he was a must see event.

Funny, it was just a few weeks ago when he was considered the second best CB on the team… overreaction Monday lol

Sauce is better but no shame. Bland has been anything but. As for the best since Prime, it’s close. Was going to say Diggs but tackling is important to me for corners.

Since my user name is in part a reference to Terence Newman, a fave player of mine, I’m conflicted.

Bland is the best Cowboys CB since Trevon Diggs.

I really enjoy watching the players and he’s been so so so good but I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop with this kid for some reason and I hope I’m really wrong.

YES!!!!!

The kid is playing great, for sure. When Bland starts returning kicks, racking-up yards on offense, and fitting some MLB games into his schedule - aside from playing corner - get back to us.

I imagine the people comparing him to Prime Time didn’t actually watch Sanders play. Bland has a ways to go to reach that height.

I been thinking that Mazi is the next Lilly!

Seriously. Bland is great don't get me wrong. But Prime is arguably the best athlete to ever set foot on any field.
