Drafted by Cowboys Round 3 pick 87 Dallas Cowboys take LB Marist Liufau Notre Dame

[big dog cowboy]

Zimmer kind of LB.

 

[sbark]

Nice add....

 

[StuckMojo]

He is nowhere near the linebacker that Wilson is

 

[DallasBlockersClub]

Payton Wilson’s medicals must be truly terrible.

 

[Risen Star]

So....is Ezekiel Elliott really going to be the starting RB this year?

 

[Coogiguy03]

How do you take this guy over Wilson, Gray or Trotter?

Oh because trotters dad said he won't show up lol

 

[stiletto]

45 solo tackles in 25 starts isn’t exactly encouraging for a LB.

And it’s very obvious that Peyton Wilson was medically red flagged. 0 other explanation why he hasn’t been drafted yet. He was never going to be the pick for good reason.


But still would have much rather gotten a RB or WR with this pick and filled LB depth in the 5th.

Definitely the worst pick in the draft so far. Makes no sense to take a guy they could've easily gotten in the 5th round. Why not trade down and try to pick up another 5 or something? Kind of stupid and a waste.

 

[sbark]

It’s hard to be out of position more than LVE was.

But Jaylon did it more....remember him litterally running away from the play

Told people early they feel comfortable at running back lol

 

[John813]

Our Nashon Wright LB

 

[sbark]

He is nowhere near the linebacker that Wilson is

Being avail to simply play is kinda a big thing

 

[Blast From The Past]

Advanced stats suggest he is a good coverage LB but poor against the run.

This defense was poor at stopping the run....so why not...

Was there ever any doubt?

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I love this pick. Hes physical, and he has (from what I've seen when doing mock drafts) a nose for run stopping. This is a solid pick. Id have liked Payton Wilson, but, given his injury concerns, I definitely understand why they probably have him off their board.

 

[Proof]

How ppl can complain about this pick. Just because he was “projected” to go later? Kid seems like the type of physical player this defense needs.

Nobody noticed us getting gashed in the run over the years. This guy…
Kendricks…overshawn already sounding better

did you miss where he’s graded poorly against the run? group think isn’t always right, just don’t understand why they’re always on the outside of consensus. he may be good, just not too enthralled

Are you not entertained?

I don't mind them taking a guy like this but not with a 3rd round pick. He was a consensus 5th/6th. Special teams guy at best. That's a reach by all accounts in the 3rd.

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Zimmer liked the pick. He similar to Kendrick who was a stud with Zimmer and he gets to learn from Kendrick here

The problem is getting him in the third.....Zimmer can like him, but they could have gotten him in the 5th....more or less where he was projected. There was still some great talent here in the 3rd... SMDH........

 

[Proof]

That’s who half this board wanted… because kiper has him ranked higher? Ppl think that guys gonna have a long career in the league with those injuries? I mean I hope he does but I wouldn’t bet on it

or because of his actual production and traits lol. we wanted him in the 2nd potentially let’s not act like our second third wasn’t opportune. but sure, what’s your selling point on … i honestly can’t remember his name after just reading it
