Draft Day NFL Draft 2024 Day 2

[MikeT22]

It turns out one of the big reasons for Wilson's unexpected slide is the fact he only has one ACL, according to NFL Media. The NC State product entered the draft with an extensive history of knee injuries, but Ian Rapoport indicated on NFL Network Friday that "one of (Wilson's) knees does not have an ACL" at all

Well can't tear your ACL if you don't have one.

I’m ok with the draft so far. Without Beebe it would have been a fail so thank goodness for that trade down. I like the defensive players but I can’t imagine they have a huge impact this season.

Our OL is in good shape now for this season and they’ll get to open holes for old Zeke all year.

Plus, Damone Clark is a** and Overshown is coming off a torn LB. There should be a competition for the LB spot next to Kendricks.

Yeah LB room is wide open to me......I don't know much about the guy but if they truly feel he's a 3rd round talent then he should be competing as well.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Bottom of the 5th? Or 6th / 7th round?

Hoping the 5th I don't know if they can wait too long.

We still have a decent shot at a back if we stay where we are

We can take a back if we stay where we are, but the percentages of hitting on one go way down. At this point, I'm taking two to at least up our chances.

 

[Buzzbait]

This draft is all about getting tougher. About time. Way too soft for way too long

Since I've had some time to go back and investigate our picks, that certainly seems to be the case. I think we've done a tremendous job in this draft so far considering we didn't pick till #24!
I'm really pleased with our 1st 2 days in the draft!

Good strategy but I can't see the Jones boys doing that. I'd be shocked.

You mean he's got a peg leg?......ay,....shoulda been drafted by the Buccaneers, i wonder.

Me too. They've devalued the position. And next year, they'll reverse and want to trade up in the first round to take one. Kind of like 2015 and 2016. We let Murray go to a higher bigger, said we were going to do running back by committee with McFadden and Choice (I believe, but may be getting my mediocre backs mixed up) and the next year we were spending on a top-10 pick on Elliott.

Someone on X(Twitter) called Liufau “Hawaiian Jaylon Smith”.

Seems accurate.

He, at least, has two working feet. I assume that is a leg up on him. I won’t be here all night

Beebe was my favorite pick of the night, especially if we do see him as a center option. If Guyton can step in at LT right away, I like the power that we have on the interior. Maybe we can just run the Philly sneak on every run play, and that's why we're not taking an RB.

 

[basel90]

Nobody knows anything. They scouted him they like him. Big physical downhill lb. Exactly what we need for run d

Agree . The analysts are wrong on so many player rankings . The cowboys staff must have evaluated him differently. It is good to stick to their own assessment and not pundits all the time . Time will tell .

joseph randle was behind murray in 2014 , so think he was the guy in 2015?
They should have kept murray, losing him changed the whole offense which led to tony getting hurt etc.
They could have made a run in 15.

Who is Freeman and who is the star he's talking about?

Really he is the head coach of N Dame ,wow !

And if we had taken him everyone w be saying we only take lb with injuries.You guys do nothing but complain,unreal!

That's right, the underwear thief. Thanks.

Man can Jerry just die already please

Poor guy had cte I think, went off the rails and wound up in jail or prison I think.
No help from jones for him, he was clearly not right in the head.

I remember jg chewing him out because he jumped over the pile and stuck the ball out and scored a td.
I guess they told him not to do that. He was a decent rb.

Last thing I remember seeing on him is a court committing him to a mental hospital in 2021.
