I wouldn't be too sure, we have good contacts at OU and I think they like him and he will be a gr8 Dunbar replacement.

I'd be sure. Again, we aren't using a 2nd rounder on him.

You don't use a higher round pick like a 2nd or 3rd rounder on a situational, Dunbar level replacement. That would be moronic.

I think he's a great talent. I also think he has a ten cent head. I also think there's no way we draft him, especially with Elliott here. I just pray he doesn't end up in NY or Philly.

Schefter today said based on what he's heard, he will likely be a Friday night selection, either late 2nd or early 3rd. There is no chance we use a 2nd or 3rd rounder on him.
Really? He would be BPA at 60.

Actually, it would be the best value in the draft. He is a first round talent.

Again, people misunderstand the concept of BPA.

In other words, if the Cowboys are sitting there at 28 and Deshone Kizer or Watson are the BPA on their board, should they take him?

You invested the 4th pick in the draft on Elliott. Why would you then invest another premium pick in a TB that would take Elliott, arguably your best offensive weapon, off the field?

Would you be getting true value in using your 60th pick on a guy that might see 10 snaps a game? This isn't fantasy football.

I understand exactly what BPA is. Kizer and Watson are not BPA at 28. Kizer actually sucks in general. Mixon is a 1st round talent and would be BPA at 60.

You have no idea what the Cowboys board would be. So your answer is silly. You are now caught in a dilemma so to get out you make a statement that you can't back up............ that the Cowboys wouldn't have Watson or Kizer as BPA at 28.

I'll ask again, if Kizer or Watson is the BPA on their board when picking at 28, according to you, the Cowboys should draft him.

It only makes sense to draft a RB that high if EE was due for a new contract and well he was asking for stupid money.
Or EE was injury prone.

Let's hope you don't have any family members who would do something like that on video. Then again, you may have different rules for different people like most

That's kinda slanderous guru . Your accusation is old lame and tired dribble. This world I live in is one that a big powerful man just doesn't power punch a 80 lb liter women.And fracture four places in her face. but those may not be your rules.
places in her face.

There is no official - all times at pro days are done by hand. There are no laser/electronic times for these events - only at the combine.
OU uses the same technology as combine.

Why NFL Draft Prospects Run Faster 40-Yard Dashes At Their Pro Day Than At The NFL Combine APRIL 28, 2016

The 40-yard Dash is timed at both the NFL Combine and a player’s collegiate Pro Day. Often times the players seem to run a better time at their Pro Day than they do at the combine. The reasoning behind this is rather simple; at a Pro Day, a player is manually timed by one of their coaches who starts the clock after the player takes off rather than when the player takes off.

On the other hand, the timing for 40-yard dashes at the NFL Combine is done by a scientific laser-operated timing system that garners a far more accurate measurement. This is done with Zybek Sports which was founded in Boulder, Colorado in 2008. Zybek has been working with then NFL Combine since 2011 to achieve more accurate 40-Yard Dash times.

Mixon's 40 time was laser timed.

Westbrook & Perine is in play more than Mixon
Both are better fits for Dallas' roster. Perine would be a great power counter to Zeke. I'm concerned about Westbrook's size. There's about 4 or 5 WRs this year I would take above him. But if he's around in the 3rd round I would take him.

If it's being reported as unofficial, it came from a scout, not the school.
I'm pretty sure it's only official if it's done by NFL. But if it's released from OU it's using the same technology as the combine.

He has a ten cent head based on one incident? The moralist are a funny crew smh.
