Not one of those players will be there. Lets hope that Walker is still around by the time Dallas picks.

We need an edge rusher or CB. Draft is lining up just fine to upgrade those positions. But 7-10 gets us a better prospect than 9-8. The real problem is that our front office has zero confidence dipping into the free agency pool and clings to players too long. We need to wheel and deal more.

Tyler Smith - 24th
Micah Parsons - 12th
CeeDee Lamb - 17th
LVE - 19th
Byron Jones - 27th
Zack Martin - 16th

We seem to draft well in the 12-20ish range.

We struggle when forcing the pick like Taco, Hill, Guyton etc

Really . Brooks & Tolbert found the end zone yesterday Flournoy never gets targeted Cooks seems to be a weapon . Turpin is the fastest player in the NFL I mean how many more WR’s can MM collect ? You can only dress so many at one position game day .
You sound like Stephen Jones overrating his homegrown talent. Outside of Turpin who is a gadget player, you think teams actually are worried about the rest of our receivers? Would it force teams to take away all the attention on Lamb? Good teams will game plan to take out Lamb and aren’t worried about our other receivers

Wasn’t he projected as a top pick earlier on?

How far does he fall due to this? Not that we would ever take him since Dak is the man for the rest of time but just curious.

Don’t misread my tone, but I’d like your honest opinion as to why they overrate their own players.

The way they roster build is strictly through the draft. When they have a poor draft class, they double down and hope these players develop rather then use fa to plug a hole due to their controllable salaries. Roster is top heavy, stars and lower level players in that developmental stage as they spend virtually nothing to improve their roster outside of the draft and draft free agency. Typically we see them resigning their own but have to terminate their contracts early cause of their play not meeting their salaries.

Funny how Rush seems to “ find these other receivers “ . Tampa was pushing for a division not exactly garbage saw Rush & the receivers have a nice night at the Art Gallery.

You keep saying “Rush is finding those WRs” but those guys are catching like 1 maybe 2 balls a game…they did nothing with Dak and they’re doing nothing with Rush.

Tolbert who has been basically our no 2 receiver most of the season has less than 500 receiving yards which is pathetic.

Yeah he’s right around 500 but why argue , Dak was running the show first half of 24 .
