Draft Day ***NFL Draft Day two thread***

[HungryLion]

I wrote in another thread that I don't think the Cowboys are as concerned about it as fans are. I think the main reason is they believe they have five starting-caliber players in Tyler, Tyron, Biadasz, Martin and Steele. Edoga was added as cheap insurance as a guard.

I would have preferred getting a guard here instead of a linebacker, but I can't say Dallas didn't feel it needed a linebacker more than a guard. It did lose Gifford without replacing him, just like it lost Schultz without replacing him and Watkins without replacing him. Hmmm ... seems to be a pattern.

The front office and coaches are high if they honestly plan to rely on Tyron staying healthy all season.

Don't forget about Clark, but yeah still need the help at LB

Oh right, still, we now have 4 excellent LBs. That's massive. When's the last time we had quality depth at LB? Especially when we play Nickel? I love it!!!

 

[zrinkill]

They want to turn him into a Parsons clone

I have a hunch G gets addressed tomorrow. There's still some good ones on the board.

Worst part is i think the Cowboys are going to take the Bijan's backup who brings absolutely nothing to the table.

This team takes flashy, y’all complain about not drafting football players.

This team drafts football players that fit the mold of the staff, y’all want flashy.

This has been a great draft with physicality in mind. I’ll take it.

Has everyone forgot about Sam Williams, or does he project more as a DE?

 

[Jarntt]

Well they made my broken record comment easier to track over time now:

TE Schoonmaker and LB overshown

vs

LB Drew Sanders and TE Darnell Washington

 

[Cowboysheelsreds058]

PLENTY of good RB’s left. It was smart to wait in this draft class

Lol, this! They not resigning Zeke, this is not your 2016 Zeke.

What not to like about a 4.56 Lb?

Absolutely a DE

Who weighs under 230lbs

With Quinn, I think we will enjoy that. Idk if he'll be another Parsons, but he's a missile when attacking the ball. QBs and RBs are going to dread playing us.

Thankfully, the Eagles swung and missed today (and yesterday imo).

Giants absolutely kicked our butt. Giants addressed their biggest weakness, weapons on offense. We are taking TEs for blocking.

LOL no, unfortunately Eagles didn't swing and miss. That's wishful thinking. They got the guy some have called the best DT prospect in a decade, an elite pass rushing prospect, and a solid OL.

You're daydreaming if you think we didn't lose ground to them.

 

[cowboyec]

why is kelee ringo still on the board?
medical?

 

[gimmesix]

ESPN projected pick 162
CBS projected 81
Several others have him in the fourth.

This is a reach.

NFL.com had him at 86. Reach is in the eyes of the draft expert.

He will fit right in with the two other ones who can't see the field

 

[MajesticRey]

Jones family reunion in the draft room. Serious teams treat the draft as a business, Jerry brings his grandsons in for fun time.

And of course they waste another pick, taking a jag LB.

No RBs, nothing to fill the giant hole on the OL, no juice for the passing game.

Juice for the passing game? We are fine at WR. Only RB would be a need, and you can still find a solid RB in the later rounds. OL is the only offensive “need” we really have left, so hopefully they at least get a G next pick.
