Another Jerry development project.

I like the talent and the potential. But I'm tired of the projects. I really don't want him to become another AOA/Matt Johnson. We need guys that can contribute right away.

He doesn't look like an AOA/Matt Johnson in that highlight video. Did you watch it?

Not at all mad about this pick.

This kid is a very real athlete. He isn't Vaccaro but we just gave up pick 80 not 14.

We really needed to come out of this draft with a safety and this guy was the apple of the Dallas eye.

Still lots of depth at RB, DT and OT in this draft.
You played safety in college. Have you gotten a chance to watch very much of Wilcox?

not bad. i can't say whether I like or not since I've never seen him play. I have read a lot about him, and it all sounds positive.

i'm concerned that we continue to address the safety position with projects

edit: watching the highlights, i love his toughness and his build. i wasnt expecting a DII guy to look like an NFL player, but he's very well put together.

There aren't a lot of safeties drafted in the 3rd round that start right away and aren't projects.

My favorite pick so far. He plays angry. I think he starts year two.

Love how he sounds. He's on the phone right now with the Dallas radio guys.

We need starters with our first 4 picks and we end up with probably 1 starter and probably 3 backup/special teamers....... with maybe potential to play if a starter goes down.

This guy is garbage.lol the spin job you guys do is funny. He'll start year two? That is how we draft in win now mode? Everything is next year with you people.
