Drafted by Cowboys Round 7 Pick 233 Dallas Cowboys draft OL Nathan Thomas Louisiana

[ShortRound]

Love the OL attention.

Love the OL attention.

Same here.

In fact, I hope they draft nothing but Oline in next year's draft.

At worst, Thomas has a solid opportunity of making the practice squad in my opinion. He is a strong run blocker. There is room for improvement if he gets the right coaching.

Off-topic side rant. There is no university called Louisiana in this state. The state university is LSU. Thomas' alma mater is a University of Louisiana member. Its actual name is University of Louisiana at Lafayette or ULL for short.

It is a pet peeve of mine and others within the state, especially some of us who attended other UofL schools or LSU. Networks like ESPN, etc., display the school or their students as 'Louisiana' all the time. It disrespects other Louisiana universities and their titles.

Brugler has a fifth-round grade on OT Nathan Thomas.

Amazing how many resources are spent on the OL but they refused to draft a 1T

Proves Solari can't coach up players.

Or it proves that when 2 leave in FA and some bench guys can't stay healthy it's time to bring in new players.

You actually expect them to do their jobs?

Coming from a minor school he almost certainly did not get very good coaching compared to the NFL so it looks like a pretty good grab to me

We wouldn't be in this position if the current and previous Oline coaches KNEW HOW TO BUILD OLINE PLAYERS AND WHERE TO PLAY THEM.

 

[Risen Star]

Mel just took a moment to single out Thomas to Dallas. "The Cowboys get a guy like Nathan Thomas in the 7th round. Don't rule him out. He's a good developmental player."

 

[DallasEast]

My expectation is irrelevant. The coaches are hired to do their jobs. Success or failure is on them.

That said, I hope they do their jobs and succeed. If my hope is misplaced, so be it. I'm not Nathan Thomas, lol.

 

[morasp]

Outstanding pick in round 7.

What does this aay about Waletzko, Ball and maybe Richards?

It says that we got better in the offensive line.

Nobody outside Louisiana cares.

They did an excellent job of improving the offensive line. They also now have some linebackers and edge that can stop the run.

On ESPN they were talking about which QBs drafted on day 3 that would have a chance of making the most impact. Out of no where Mel Kiper starts raving about Nathan Thomas. The other guys on the set had to remind him they were talking about the QBs.

 

[Rayman70]

hes a NFL Guard, and maybe a good one for like 7 or 8 years.

There you go.

More meat is good..lol
