Matt Mosley's 1st pick predictions on GAC...w/audio Post #49

[Bowdown27]

I will flip out if we take eifert

 

[arglebargle]

Hanna was 6'4" 252 lbs, ran a 4.49 40 and got drafted in the 6th round.

He had a reputation for bad hands, and not being a particularly well schooled blocker.

As soon as he got here, he started catching everything they threw at him. I imagine just through training in technique and strength, he's probably gotten to be a better blocker.

But that's the draft game for you; you never know.....

 

[xwalker]

Just for fun who would you guys take at 3?

If I'm picking for the Cowboys at #3, I would...trade down.

 

[The Quest for Six]

Yeah, cause lord knows a lack of a SECOND great TE has been what's been holding the team back.

Ask New England how two very good tighends helps on offense, because other than Welker the few years, that was their offense, no receivers to think of..

This draft only has about 16 first round talent and no real franchise type players but it's full of very good second, third and fourth round talent, if there's no top guard, or defensive end, I have no problem taking the tightend if he's the best player on the board since Witten is growing long in the tooth and the drop off will be quick for him.

I'm not trading up to take a guard, This draft has good guards all the way through the 3rd round.

Exactly who are these good guards? After the top two, there are a bunch of projects.

Matt (self proclaimed "Dr. Draft") has 3 names as locks as being a Cowboy.

1) Kenny Vaccaro
2) Tyler Eifert
3) Chance Warmarck (move up to around 10th pick to draft him)

1) No
2) Heck No
3) I'm okay with

That's hilarious because Warmack will be available at #18.

 

[Aven8]

Hope Mosely is wrong about Kenny. I will be real bummed with yet another secondary player, and one in college that really did nothing.

Don't want another TE either unless we are dumping Wittens contract. Would take the TE over Kenny however.

 

[The Quest for Six]

That's hilarious because Warmack will be available at #18.

I agree, I remember last year people were saying dallas would need to trade up to get Decastro and he slid all the way to Pittsburgh at 18..

1) If he's the BPA, I would consider a trade down
2) ditto
3) Love Chance, but moving up to 10th would cost us our 3rd and 4th rounders...maybe more. No thanks

good god if we take a TE in round 1 i will puke. i dont care how good he is, Garrett cant figure out how to use 2 te's so its a waste.

Maybe that's part of the reason it works for them......imagine that. No WRs, so we can actually utilize both TEs to supplement a pretty dismal WRs group.

If you honestly think that just having 2 TEs who are capable will give you the results in NE, you're nuts.

Clearly Marty was better than he ever showed in Dallas. Why didn't it work out then? Was he not "great enough"?

Furthermore, lets just go ahead and drop the New England comparisons. They drafted both of those guys outside of the first round. They didn't prioritize the TE position. They took 1 guy at #42 overall and the other in the 4th round.

If Dallas wants to use a 4th rounder on a TE, be my guest. New England has shown it can be done, have at it Dallas.

And for what it's worth, Indy took 2 TEs in their 1st three picks last year. Why didn't they get Gronkowski results? They drafted Fleener who was supposed to be a stud and they took Dwayne Allen who's name was also floating around this board.

What New England does is good for them. Part of the reason they can actually utilize 2 TEs is because they have an OL that can block without that 6th man staying home.

If Dallas takes a 2nd TE, it won't get them anywhere near NEs production because Dallas will simply use the 2nd TE as a 6th OL.

Drafting a TE in the first round would be a huge waste for this team.

no,
maybe
definitely

Stretch was saying how Hanna was progressing through the season. I don't see them drafting the Tyler.

That's my biggest concern with drafting Eifert. You have Hannah who I think can be a good pass catching TE, and you already have Witten. I know some are die hard BPA fans, and I like Eifert, but taking him in the first makes no sense if any of Warmack, Cooper, Richardson, Sly Williams, or Vaccaro are still there.

 

[17yearsandcounting]

I'll lead the siege on Valley Ranch if they pick Eiffert in the first round.

I'll prepare the torches and pitchforks.

 

[JohnsKey19]

Hanna would become a non-entity the moment we select Eifert.

And this is why I don't understand Eifert being a possibility. Not saying Hanna is Tony Gonzalez, but he is a good young developing TE. Eifert may be the better player but I have to believe there will be comparable talent to Eifert on the board that better fits our roster.

ESPN Dallas just played a cut of them interviewing Warmack. Warmack of course said he wants to play for the Cowboys. Saying they are America's Team. Dallas and Alabama are great programs to play for.

Then he says he patterns his game after Larry Allen. Said he has alot of respect for Larry.

I would be super happy if we get Warmack. DFW radio is still saying we have to move up to get Warmack, adding that no way he gets past Tennessee.
