Interesting Dak called him a few days ago, it shows that he really was a specific target of the team. Really like this pick and think he can be a good complimentary option. He also looks like the type of player similar to a Gallup where Dak can trust him to win 50/50 balls down the field.

No disrespect to you, OP, but you kinda made it sound like he was planning to come in and kick butt and take names, when it wasn't nearly as strong as that...which is good. He seems to have a great attitude, a lot of confidence, and big time play making ability. The only thing I'm worried about is his tendency to taunt DBs after the play. I hope he gets that out of his system before the season starts.

Love this pick. I wouldn’t have been upset with him as Dallas’ second round choice.

From his physical skills and size to his football character and competitiveness… great pick.
Most other scouts would've rather he be the 2nd round pick.....lol

Seriously! A talented Cowboy that taunts would make him a flag magnet.

But sometimes you got to humble people, you know.

I’m a big fan of this pick. He’s the quintessential Cowboys 3rd round receiver pick.

Tolbert reminds me of a mix between Andre Reed and Isaac Bruce. He’s very adept at tracking the deep ball; effective runner after the catch; and very solid athlete across board.

As an aside, he also has 10” hands which are larger than Treylon Burks who folks kept saying had huge mits (which was strange to me).
