***Official Draft Thread Day TWO***

[Carolina Cowboy]

Cowboys presser about Lawrence on now (105.3 the fan, or Cowboys website)...

The Three Stooges doing the famed eye poke routine in the presser makes me think, turn out the lights tonight (No trade back into the third).

 

[fanfromvirginia]

pick 34: value of 560
pick 47: 430
pick 78: 200
pick 119: 76

So we should have gotten roughly 119 in return to make it balanced?

 

[iceberg]

119?

some said we should have offered our 4th, or 119. we likely did and the skins said no. so we decided to give them pts edge in the draft to get the player we obviously coveted.

 

[jobberone]

This whole thing reminds me of last year when we traded down then up to take Fred and then get Williams. Same knee jerk reaction. This guy had first round grades on multiple mocks. At worst he was at the top of the second on most boards.

I don't like spending the third either but if he's a player all is forgiven.

 

[RastaRocket]

I know Skins fans really wanted Kouandijo

So you're telling me this point thing isn't the law?

Man it's hard not to think we gave up 2 much. Hope he ends up being worth it. Move reminds me of last years first round trade back as far as the sky is falling attitude lots of people are showing.

 

[Common Sense]

Pick #47 is in.

 

[mldardy]

Pick #47 is in.

On #45

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

we basically gave a 3rd round pick for a starting RDE . everyone should read that and shut it.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

I KNOW we are Dallas fans but Jeff Fisher is killing it

Great coaching job last year too in the toughest division in football and with his starting QB out much of the year.

And to think we could have him a few years ago... But I'm sure we're better off.

So you're telling me this point thing isn't the law?

sigh, it's just a guide. people saying we paid WAY TOO MUCH are saying it cause they wanted a 3rd round pick. hey, i get it. i was already bashed in another thread for saying if we give up a 3rd or 4th round pick, it will make that day more boring.

all i'm saying is we overpaid a little to get what we wanted. yes i'm bored now but like i said, this is 1 night. hopefully lawrence will have a hell of a career and people will EVENTUALLY forget the trade.

 

[Common Sense]

On #45

Actually, #49 now.

 

[iceberg]

Pick #47 is in.

and nfl.com is just as slow as the tv in putting the picks up.

That ignores the second we used to select him.

 

[mldardy]

Actually, #49 now.

LOL what are you watching. They are on #46 right now.

"There is a chip-on-the-shoulder type attitude that most Boise State players carry and the Cowboys like that, especially in Scandrick. If there has been a complaint about the Cowboys' defense with Ware as the best player it is that it has been too nice. Lawrence will bring attitude." - Todd Archer, ESPN Dallas.com

Watched some video. Love how this kid uses his hands. Hard to stone this guy.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

CBS Draft Tracker is getting lots of the picks wrong. They said Cleveland took Marquise Lee and changed it to Bitonio when the pick was made, and then said Seattle took Antonio Richardson and changed it to Paul Richardson.

why didn't we make san fran overpay when they only gave up a 3rd pick to move up 13 spots in the 1st round? we are getting screwed left and right by stephen jones.

With the way this draft board unfolded, Lawrence better be a Pro Bowler with this many DL guys available at #47.
