I've watched a lot of McMillian football (I'm from Az) and he was consistently pressed and double teamed in every game. He has good feet and knows how to use his hands to fight through jams...the thing is he never stops on a play and keeps fighting to get open. He is comfortable with DB's on his back and uses that to his advantage as he knows where the defender is at, to box out and use his wingspan to keep the DB away from the ball. You never see Tet catch with his body.
The thing is though we know we are trying to win now. They’ve spent the money. So at this point it’s about who helps is win now or next season. Whether we like it or not Dak is here for the next couple of years.
I believe this clip is old
Screams bust!
I like the player, just not in love with the fit with our current QB. Dak had his struggles getting the ball to Dez, although this was the tail end of his career. He did was great success with Cooper, Beasley who were great separators.
Of course, it about winning now, but that doesn't change anything moving forward. The draft is always about the future and relying on rookies to make major impacts is ridiculous...RB is really the only position where a rookie can come in and be an impact on day one, because of being such an instinctive position. WR takes a bit more time as they need to read and see the field as the QB would. I'm not saying a player isn't worth starting and having a roll, I'm saying in terms of a player's development. The third year is normally the time a player takes that big jump...just like we've seen with Dez and CeeDee. By the time Tet hit's year three Dak will most likely be out the door.
I can’t say that about Lamb. Lamb made an immediate impact. People don’t remember now but we’ve always had solid slot receivers from Beasley to Cobb. That became a real need and Lamb as a rookie was a great slot receiver for us. That first rounder doesn’t need to be a finished product. But he needs to be a major contributor day 1. We can’t have the Guyton and Mazi type development with a 12th pick.
And those QB's were more accurate passers than Dak. I understand what people are saying and would totally agree if this was five years ago and Dak was in his "prime". But we are talking about a QB who is closer to being retired or maybe having another bad injury to force some decisions. Dak has always needed WR's to be wide open, but the reality is that to be a saucerful NFL QB you need to be able to fit the ball into tight spots and trust that your WR is going to get it...Dak has never been that.
This draft stinks with blue chip talent and where we sit at 12 sucks really. Better value wise to be sitting at 18 or so. Or of course in the top 5.
I don't think so on this guy. Several teams report interviews didn't go well and liads of questions about work ethic, showing up on time, etc.. most of media boards have even downgraded him. Something is up.
