CFZ Keeping the Draft in Perspective

[Aven8]

Once Gibbs went off, and than McDonald…my mind went to WR or Kincaid. Than a run on them. I’m totally fine with the pick as it came out of left field as it’s something we haven’t done in over 30 years!

Nolan Smith is 240lb DE folks. And Mayer ran a 4.7 40.

Well said. If Mazi Smith helps set up more 3rd and longs because he helped us stuff the run on early downs, then this team has collectively improved.

I am beyond tired of watching this D get gashed in the run game then watch the FO sell day 3 draft picks or a trade for 33 yo Jonathan Hankins as the “fix” for stopping the run. Glad we have Hankins but he alone was never going to be enough.

And there’s plenty of really good players at multiple positions of need on Days 2 and 3.

I wish I could give 2 likes here. It's still not enough. I think we have a pretty good team going forward and will probably be picking late next year as well. I'm not totally against picking up another beast in the middle in next year's draft for whatever it takes. I can't stand how we've been getting gashed in the run game.

We lost that first game to the Eagles last year and a lot of people point to Rush. Although he didn't play great, a lot of pressure was put on him because we couldn't stop the Eagles from running the ball. When we came back and made it 20-17, they just drove right down the field. Largely in part to running.

Make Hurts pass the ball without selling out for the run.

Dallas fans are the kings and queens of overreacting.

Yeah, we are so spoiled. We should just passively enjoy the wonderful job our front office does for us and just be thankful for the opportunity to cheer them on.

Most fans are from any fan base.

Cause we are fanatics!

What does that have to do with people overreacting to the smallest moves or things the dumb arse front office does? The entitlement with this fan base is real.
