Draft Day ***NFL Draft Day Three thread***

[Ken]

What a dumb trade. This team is clueless.

Just had to move up for a JAG with a good vertical and nothing else. Not even productive on the college level.

I don't know what the hell we are doing with this draft.

 

[Floatyworm]

Denver and Sean Peyton is killing it...

 

[Mr_437]

They said he pulled his quad on his 40 which is why it was so low.

Excellent news.

Listening to his interview with the guys on the draft show -- he's so emotional -- hard not to root for him

 

[Risen Star]

He's anticipating compensatory picks.

He should be anticipating how much Scott will suck in the NFL.

Well this pokes holes in the theory the Cowboys' war room is throwing darts at the draft board and picking whoever it lands on.

I hope he really struggles post-football.

So maybe not such a bad trade after all. Except it was still a bad pick. Maybe, time will tell.

Sounds like he injured himself while running the 40 on his pro day. So giving him the benefit of doubt, let's say he's a high 4.5 guy instead. That along with his explosion testing numbers and size, I can see why they would take him as a developmental prospect. But yeah, if he's a legit 4.7 guy, it's hard to see where he survives in the league.

Zach Evans was supposed to be a 3/4 guy

I hear you.
Just think its a testament too the depth of the RB class.

There still some left that would be like splitting hairs between them and Evans.

 

[fivetwos]

He's anticipating compensatory picks.

Ah that’s true. Still though….not a fan of digging into next year for this guy. He is unlikely to get anywhere near the field.

 

[NickZepp]

This guys broad jump was 11.1 which is really good and vertical was 39.5 which is solid.

 

[Carson]

Oh wow look JL Skinner just went

His 184 passing yards allowed was fifth in the country among cornerbacks who played at least 50% of the most snaps, according to Pro Football Focus.

 

[NickZepp]

Problem is he can't catch anyone to hit them.

Well he didn't give up a ton of yards according to PFF.

 

[JohnsKey19]

People keep mentioning Evans the RB. He has been flagged by most NFL teams and probably removed from draft boards.

 

[Adiba1977]

Guy saying not 50/50 ball. If balls in the air it’s his ball. Guys a dog. Gonna hurt people.

 

[DFWJC]

Not sure if the player was right, but Dallas did appear to correctly anticipate a run on CBs.

 

[Aven8]

Well this is a Dak friendly draft.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

He will be a practice squad player at best. Do they quit on a 2nd rounder or a 3rd rounder already?

You can’t honestly sit there and say that you would prefer this guy you could get in the 7th or an UDFA over an injured guy like JL Skinner or Andrew Vorhees? It’s a perfect stash pick for next year.

It just wreaks of the typical Dallas “we know better than 31 other teams picks”

Not really, I'm saying we don't enough to draw a final conclusion, especially this late in the draft. We can get a better understanding of the player, their thinking, and their intent during to post draft presser and then judge.

 

[Buzzbait]

NFL.com calls Scott a priority free agent.
And we drafted him?

If you like a guy, you go get him. Worrying about when and how and trying to second guess every move they make is a waste of time. MM and Dan Quinn knew who they wanted in this draft and they went after 'em. The proof isn't in the second guessing, it's in the results and I think we're gonna see some good results from this draft.
