So, I was in the chat last night. And Brain pointed out that Kevin Austin was still on the board. I didn't have this guy in my sights, because the media doesn't talk about him. I don't really follow Notre Dame. But he's legit a top talent, as far as just having the tools.

I have to say, I like Tolbert. But if we're comparing just raw talent, on film, this guy is better. So why isn't he in the conversation in this draft?

Too many injuries, off the field stuff? I started watching him last night then fell asleep.

At this point, I would argue we almost have too many WRs. Any way you see him landing in Dallas?

No doubt, Tolbert is talented. And he fits our scheme very well.

At some point, though, you have to address other positions. With a guy like Tolbert, there really is no need for another WR.

We have four really solid guys. And one developmental guy with Fehoko. I get that there is only one ball to go around. But that is some really nice depth at receiver and we got a good one too. So, I think you have to go back to the offensive and defensive lines.

That's a lot of talent to be hanging around though.

Good player with very good size and athleticism.

Only available this late due to character and injury history.

I prefer to take high upside players in the 5th and later even if they're high risk types.

Maybe they use a 5th on him. Agree that Tolbert is less of a risk because of the type of person he is, and his work ethic, style, etc. all seem to translate to what you'd want.

I really liked him when I was scouting WRs for fun. He fits what Dak seems to like.
