Draft Day ***NFL Draft Third Round thread***

[Avery]

Why did they not take Ronny Perkins from Oklahoma ?

Perkins probably has some medical red flags.

• Chauncey Golston DE Iowa......Not the worst pick. He looks like he could be a dude....can spell D-Law....More I think about it....I like the pick. Strong side LDE...can help stop the run. We needed a guy to do the dirty work.

Uh oh. That means he’s going to be a bust.

105.3 is describing this class so far as guys with high floors but not necessarily super high ceilings. They need young guys who can come in and be dependable contributors and that’s what they’re looking for according to the guys on air.

He's solid. I like the move. He's a fierce pass rusher and a good run stopper. Also good on special teams. Basically, a DE and football player. I love this draft!

I hope you give us a good analysis thread come Sunday after everything settles down. Seems you know more about these picks than many. I know more so the me.

 

[TheDude]

Their pets didn’t get picked

31st ranked rush Defense....teams hanging 300ypg multiple times. No pressure on QB, cant get off the field. The team thinks 1 LB will solve it

Maybe a reason???

 

[Irvin88_4life]

so the corner we drafted barely played in college and is a year or two from starting in the nfl

we still have no free safety

we still have no run stuffing DT

same **** another year

They drafted Osa which is a run stuffing DT

 

[plasticman]

I think the Cowboy management did a convincing job demonstrating a commitment to improving the defense.

As far as weight concerns, I've seen a lot of guys drafted with the intention of bulking them up through a weight program. That's much better than getting a big heavy guy that lacks quickness and struggles with weight problems during his career.

 

[Rockport]

Golston is a terrible pick. Where dies he play? Anae and Armstrong are still on the team. They draft OO just before. Seriously this is a bad pick. Not sure this guy makes the roster. Just weird.

Thanks for your input Coach Parcells.

 

[jazzcat22]

Well, crap, there goes Wyatt Davis, Vikings got a good OL.

 

[mldardy]

If you picked every player that landed right before us I’d guarantee a better draft. Not realistic but true

Oh you'd guarantee it huh. I mean you can see 5 years into the future. Man you must be the greatest.

our 2nd rd pick seems to be the opposite

4.3 speed and good size. has barely played and knucklehead

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I don’t know, but no one else has grabbed him either so.......

Exactly, maybe FOs see something that a lot of fans here don't like.

 

[Whyjerry]

This is the most disappointed I’ve been in a draft since 2009. Before you jump on me, yes we got much better players this draft than 2009 but we had opportunities to get vastly better players and just whiffed every round missing out on better players because either we wouldn’t pay the price to get who we needed or just had our heads up our butts and threw a dart to make our selection.

I totally agree. It’s depressing. This team is run by idiots. This draft is a reminder. The last 2 picks have been squandered.

He’s useless if the DTs are getting mailed.

Their aversion to investing in big DTs is bizarre.

 

[DallasEast]

What's funny to me is it's the same fans who hate our FO but are mad when players who the FO are reportedly interested in don't get drafted by the same FO they hate.

 

[HungryLion]

At least they’re trying to fix the front 7. Let’s hope they pan out.

It is absolutely how you get to .500 over 25 years.

Warm bodies

 

[john van brocklin]

The biggest concern is that there's no accountability within the scouting dept. Their strategy here is to draft 10 defensive players and hopefully one can be a difference-maker.

Our overall success in the draft has been above average

 

[conner01]

Why did they not take Ronny Perkins from Oklahoma ?

They liked Golston more

 

[mardwin]

Wasn't familiar so did some searches seemed most had him as a 6-7 round pick.

The last guy, we reached for in the 3rd that was projected to be a late-round pick was Chaz Green (gave up 7 sacks in a game).
