I bet all you crybabies were made at drafting Martin too

And the Fredbeard pick.

Eagles drafted an injured linebacker LOL

lol. They got a better player than we did 19 picks later.

High risk, high reward pick right there

Low risk high reward. In other words… High floor high ceiling.

Those upset about the Eagles pick of Campbell he fell not only because of the injury, but because of poor instincts. He's a talented player, but he doesn't see the field well.

I think he’s going to be Hassan Reddick 2.0. You don’t guess much when you’re rushing the passer.

And the Fredbeard pick.

Travis Frederick got drafted at #31 at the very end of the 1st round. Completely different than 12th overall. Even Zack Martin wasn't drafted that high (16th overall), and he was faster, stronger and more athletic than Tyler Booker (only 21 bench reps @ 225 lbs and a 5.38 seconds 40 time. This time was the second-worst among offensive linemen who ran the 40. His 10-yard split was 1.96 seconds, the slowest among all participants) who was rated to be drafted no higher than early in the 2nd round.

I agree, but one pick at a time. I’m hoping we address the front 7 moving forward in this draft. We need physicality on the D Line. I like this pick cuz it gives us physicality on the O line, now we got to return the favor to the D line.

Agreed but my concern is you do get what you pay for in the draft usually. Meaning if they go DL in rounds 3 or later you are probably getting a good role player at best, and they need better than that.

Walter Nolan would have been a nice addition to one of the worst defenses in Cowboy history.

Agreed Nolen was the pick
