Belichick was a going to have Gronk-like admiration for Tyler Warren. Welcome to Dallas young man.

Tyler Warren is a beast.

 

[KingintheNorth]

Tyler Warren is a beast.

I agree.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

This has to keep adding talent to the d-line. We are running scrubs out there. We don’t have a single player of consequence at DT. Odigy is a solid player but not a guy you build around like he’s a stud. D-Law is on his last leg and Gholston is a rotational guy at best.

I’d love to add Mason Graham.

We might be out of the running for Graham. But I think Harmon could be another Muhammad Wilkerson

 

[Cowboyny]

I agree.

Moved outside from Philly and my sister in law is a Penn state alum, watch all the games, he seems to disappear at times, could that be due to lack of talent at the receiver position or perhaps the good teams game plan to take him out? I agree he is a real good looking te, probably just not picking

The 2nd tier really is real good at the position.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Yes. You are looking at Harmon, Walker, Nolan and Grant. All of whom could be catalytic players in the inside. Different flavors too

All will be big upgrades to the positional group.

 

[RonWashington]

Walter Nolen is going to be there mid teens when Dallas picks first round now Jerry give OSA his 2nd contract and with Mazi coming on in his second yr you have the makings of a young three headed DT rotation.

With Lawson proving a nice signing at Edge with Kneeland & Pardons and again Jerry let’s give Golston his 2nd contract I’m leaning toward LB round 2 instead of Edge . Marist Liufau is a question almost a yr in and Kendrick’s who knows if he’s back . LB position mighty thin Will McClay .

Linebacker sign Nick Bolt free agent from Kansas City

Tyleik Williams in the 3rd. He’s the only draftable buckeye on the defense im really interested in.

He is a 1st rd prospect.

 

[RonWashington]

Linebacker sign Nick Bolt free agent from Kansas City

Nick Bolton would solve the MLB situation no question . It’s a question as to the Chiefs plans .

 

[RonWashington]

J T Tuimoloau

I liked JT Tuimoloau in an early mock draft I did but I see now DT is more an issue early in round one . I think LB may have taken over as a priority over Edge .

Sign Nick Bolton from Chiefs. Dallas area product
Easy peazy.

The Chiefs may keep him
