McKinley Pick

[MichaelWinicki]

I was surprised how small he was.

It was my favorite part of the night.

It was a bit ridiculous, but I got no problem with a guy working his butt off through a lot of personal adversity losing it a little bit when he realizes his dream. Yeah, he's high strung.

What's funny is I think he's the guy the Cowboys were targeting. Can you imagine the reaction here if he were our pick?

 

[darthseinfeld]

I think he was overhyped, but I'm not reading anything into his outburst. I don't think it translates to anything other than he was excited he fulfilled a promise to his grandmother. It doesn't mean he's going to be better on the field any more than a quieter draft pick translates into being a poor player.

And I wish they would replace Deion as an interview on draft day. I didn't like the way he called out Takk. There are interviewing techniques you can use to quiet people without putting them on the spot like Deion did.

He plays like that on the field too. He is a hair on fire dude

RKG?

Not hardly. Lol

 

[EST_1986]

That looked like a locker room cancer with a multiple suspensions coming.

I was disappointed when his name was called, but then I was so thankful when I saw him bipolar all over himself.

not until they get PED testing going lol

Can you imagine the media ripping us to shreds. "Only the Cowboys would select a player of this nature, yada, yada, yada.........

I would have loved the display. Love people that have that kind of passion

Would be fun to see he and Dez go at it at some point in camp.

He's got a chip on his shoulder. Not an actual one like Anthony Brown though.

His father was never in his life and mom abandoned him at 5. His grandma raised him. Might be over the top for some, but can't blame him for being emotional after what he's been through.

I agree but you have to wonder if he will be able to control his emotions when he has to.

 

[SportsGuru80]

Totally uncalled for, I can understand being overcome with raw emotion but that was not a good look.

 

[ShiningStar]

young guy whos about to become a millionaire and play in the NFL excited? dear lords say it aint so. Emotion from a young person? Now i have seen it all.

Reminded me of this:

I vote for a Dorito. The Dinamita Fiery Habanero flavor.

"I thought you'd be bigger" - Road House

I said the same thing standing next to Deion.........Small, Crazy and Injured........ may be a blessing

Yep.

I thought, "This guy is a DE?"

 

[Nightman]

Love his length

 

[DoctorChicken]

"He said bads words on the most emotional night of his life??? Thug!!! Locker room cancer!!!"

I have absolutely no problem with his melt down. Let that personality shine through. The dude went through hell, overcame more adversity than almost anyone here has faced, I would venture to say, accomplished his lifelong dream which was a promise he made to someone he clearly loved, and then got emotional. So?

 

[TheCoolFan]

It was great...we need more theatrics like that for the draft.

 

[BHendri5]

That dude showed the whole world what an idiot he is, and they got a good look at a bust and full of off the field problems he will have in Hotlanta

 

[CowboyStar88]

You guys are characters

I was thinking the same thing

Dude comes from Oakland and used is inspiration (grandma). How could hate on that? Dude isn't a troublemaker. But he is a War Daddy and what this team could use on defense. We have a bunch of nice guys on defense. Look at Jaylon dude is a beast, but super nice from what I can tell. Who is the dog in the bunch? We need that!
