Linebacker drafted before Fred Warner

[jblaze2004]

BTW, I still can't believe we drafted LVE in the first round when we knew he had neck issues at Boise State.

Jerry likes value picks. Finding players that have blemishes and ailments that could otherwise be ranked higher than his pick number. That strategy gets him in trouble.

LVE was the 2nd rated LB in that draft... hindsight is 20/20

 

[stilltheguru]

This is lame. Niners passed on Warner multiple times.

Oh ok. The draft is littered with better players taken later in the draft.

Where is the video of 'all the CB's taken before Bland last year' for example.

This isn’t a knock on Warner but the list of better LBs would grow if they all played behind San Fran’s DL. Context matters

They will never learn, nor pay attention. Only want the attention and likes from the negativity. Post #2 bit and jumped on it as well.

first of all this is ridiculous you didn't even get the school right I believe it was North Dakota State that's where he got his nickname from the wolf hunter he literally hunts wolves up that way and secondly you know how many players were passed on over and over in drafts and end up getting picked by a team who gets the benefit of finding a diamond in the rough we do it all the time but you look at Brock Purdy and Tom Brady and Kurt Warner and Tony Romo and we can go on for hours talking about all the teams who relatively passed up on hall of Famers or great players it happens...

When they made their pick they thought they were making the correct pick but it happens all the time you could be wrong sometimes but you know the one thing I know is our scout team in an hour GM whose name is will mcclay not Jerry Jones does a really good job with the draft most years they hit far more than they missed...

so look going back to every draft and then picking one little cherry pick mistake they may have made is hindsight apparently Fred Warner dropped a couple of times, I mean but how does some of these players that we see doing great things like this year that's rookies or your head scratching on how they were overlooked it happens to every team all over the NFL this is not new and it doesn't need a special thread discussing it yes Fred Warner is great so?

Look at how many people were drafted before Tom Brady, and we all know how terrible he turned out!!!! But STILL we chose Martin over Johnny cash!! lol

I’ll bet there are many teams still struggling to find a QB and we got ours with a freebie 4th round pick. RIP Wade Wilson thank you sir.

It wasn't a value pick he was one of the higher rated linebackers in the draft was he a risk with his injuries sure that's not taking a value pick he was high on their board just like a lot of the other guys they picked were high on their board you know how big and fast in the instincts that LVE showed that's why he got drafted where he got drafted not because he was a value he was very high on their board...

It's really easy now to go back and cherry pick the draft and see who got passed over and who made mistakes etcetera but it happens in every draft there's so many great players that slip through the cracks and then there are players that are taken that end up being a slight disappointment but it happens the the draft has a way of balancing itself out...

You are right, you can do this every draft for every team through the years. Nobody has a crystal ball and can see the future, lol.
Every team passed on Warner and Romo many many times - neither of them were drafted at all. They were both UDFA's. I believe it was Sean Payton who was responsible for Romo being a Cowboy. I think Romo was from the same small college that Payton played at years before. Romo shattered QB records that were Paytons there.

He was awesome his first year. Looked like a steal.

3rd rounder ironic he was passed on by all 32 teams 90 times lol

“Warner entered the NFL as a lightly heralded prospect from BYU who ran a 4.64-second 40-yard dash at 230 pounds. He ultimately was the ninth linebacker drafted in the 2018 class,” Miller wrote.

8 other Lbers taken before warner and somehow this OP is saying the cowboys made the mistake..lmao

No.

I was not happy w/ the pick.

Not in this case. You simply do not draft LB's high in the draft(or at all) w/ neck issues. Just a very very dumb idea.

 

[Yoshimitsu]

And he plays well against us because he said he was a cowboys fan growing up and we passed on him.
