Video: Peter Schrager's Mock Draft 1.0!

[morasp]

Pick
26

Dallas Cowboys


Jahmyr Gibbs
Alabama · RB · Junior
The Cowboys have an incredibly strong track record when it comes to recent first-round picks: WR CeeDee Lamb and LB Micah Parsons have both made the past two Pro Bowls, while OL Tyler Smith showed plenty of promise in Year 1. After the release of former No. 4 overall pick Ezekiel Elliott, Dallas has room for another back. With Bijan Robinson off the board, Jerry Jones and Co. scoop up the explosive Gibbs.

For people that hate drafting a RB in the 1st, Gibbs might be a legit option to play significant snaps as a slot WR.
Choice: 5-9, 170 WR or 5-9, 199 RB/WR Gibbs...

 

[J12B]

Gibbs in the 1st and Johnson out of Texas in the 4th for some power.

 

[CATCH17]

I’d love it.

Dude is lightning with the ball and I like players that you can just get the ball in their hands and they can house it like Tony Pollard.

When Pollard went out of the game against San Fran how nice would it have been to have Jamyr Gibbs?

 

[CATCH17]

Gibbs in the 1st and Johnson out of Texas in the 4th for some power.

I don’t like Johnson.

Hips are just too stiff and he just looks like an obnoxious version of a power back that you can find in free agency.

We don’t need to spend a draft pick on a guy like that when Latavius Murray types are always available.

 

[cnuball21]

Woof…

RB in 1st is bad. Complimentary RB in 1st is worse.

Murray is beat.

 

[CATCH17]

Murray is beat.

But there is someone else out there just like him. Always is.

 

[J12B]

But there is someone else out there just like him. Always is.

What I like about Johnson is that he is fresh and has good power.

Not gonna break anything for 20 plus, but he could get the grunt work and a little more if needed.

 

[CATCH17]

I don’t want to spend a draft pick before round 5 on someone like that.

I need upside with my draft picks. Not a limited RB. It’s a waste of a pick and if he ever has to play in a expanded role your offense becomes limited as well.

 

[AsthmaField]

I’d love this pick. Gibbs is so dynamic. Imagine him coming in for Pollard, when he needs a break. The defense would never get a rest.

Defenses would relax when Pollard wasn’t in the game. Not with Gibbs here.

He will be a nightmare for defenses in the passing game. A screen? Fogetaboutit!

 

[jrumann59]

Woof…

RB in 1st is bad. Complimentary RB in 1st is worse.

I have no issue with RB late in the 1st round, I have issue with RB early 1st round. At 26 you are looking at borderline 1st rounder/2nd rounder type players for the most part.

 

[Questfor6]

No way Philly goes RB at pick 10 after the contract they gave Hurts yesterday.

 

[rambo2]

Excellent pick. 26 is a 2nd round pick with a 5th year option. They could even trade back and draft Gibbs or Avila or Tillman.

 

[rambo2]

No way Philly goes RB at pick 10 after the contract they gave Hurts yesterday.

I know one thing, they don't want one of the other teams in the East to take him.

 

[cnuball21]

I have no issue with RB late in the 1st round, I have issue with RB early 1st round. At 26 you are looking at borderline 1st rounder/2nd rounder type players for the most part.

I’m looking for a 1st rounder that fell.

If not, I’m looking for a fringe 1st rounder at a money position so I can have it cheap for 5 years.

 

[cowboyec]

helluva player.
electric.
wouldn't hate it.

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

I know one thing, they don't want one of the other teams in the East to take him.

Why do you think that?

 

[reddyuta]

I can live with Gibbs in the 2nd rd but no way in the 1st rd.

 

[rambo2]

Why do you think that?

They certainly don't want to play against the best back in the league twice a year for 4 or 5 years and they don't want a team in the East to scoop up a top 5 player late in the 1st round.
