Draft Day ****Official Round 1 Draft Thread***

[Sydla]

Can’t wait for Vander Esch to play those deep LB zones Marinelli loves.

I need to go to bed. The longer I stay up the more disappointed I am.

 

[mardwin]

About every mock I have seen prior to the draft had LVE before Evans.

So did every mock last year with Taco and TJ Watt. Guess who's the better player?

 

[cowboyec]

Jaylon wears #54.
Maybe L.V.E. can wear #55.

 

[Jake]

Before I crack open another diet cream soda, does anyone know if round 2 is tonight?

No.

Rounds 2 and 3 are tomorrow.

 

[RamziD]

The more I read about LVE, the better I like him. Looks like a perfect prototype for MLB. I hope he reaches his potential.

Good question, especially since Watt is playing 3-4 linebacker and we play a 4-3.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

You really think the fans had any part in that win? You act like the fans decided to win that game. Blaming the coaches, players, front office, etc. is fine, but the fans?

NO the fans didn't.

But those who rooted for a loss were ganged up on and took a ton of abuse for recognizing the obvious.

I didn’t see those mocks last year. Everything I saw had Watt before Taco.


Also they play different positions. Watt is a 230lb OLB. Taco is a 4-3 DE.

You know what's BS, LVE ahead of Evans from Alabama

Bama players generally hit their ceiling in college because of their unmatched S&C program. They seem to just not get much better after getting drafted.

So sure Evans is a really good player now, but what you see now is what you better be ok with for the duration of his career.

 

[mardwin]

According to those who evaluate talent for a living, he IS ahead of Evans.

Stop it... same evaluators that had Brady behind every other QB? Or Romo undrafted?

You don't draft a "prototype" in the first round. You draft a "prototype" in the 4th round. They are projects. First round players should be pretty much ready to start.

Tomorrow

 

[cowboyec]

Courtland Sutton
Or
Christian Kirk
In Rd 2.

Please and Thank You.

 

[cowboyfan4life2]

We can still get a WR and I expect we will. They're all still on the board.

Most of them will be gone by the time we pick next.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

The idea that LVE is comparable to Bobby Carpenter is absolute rubbish. Furthermore: https://www.nfl.com/prospects/leighton-vander esch?id=32462018-0002-5602-32a6-0b4e5b5e883e the link here compares him to the earlier verson of Dansby which is more believable.

[CowboyStar88]

I’m still hoping we go after Anthony Miller later in the draft

 

[Jake]

Probably because rooting against your team is a pointless exercise, as you acknowledged in the first sentence.

 

[superonyx]

Uh oh..the WR cherry just got popped.
Ridley will be gone in a minute.
