My thoughts on the draft are mixed for different reasons. While i love the Smith and Carter picks i dont understand the Murray pick. Garrett has a hard time getting Felix and Choice involved in the game plan consistently because he loves the passing game. I dont hate the pick i just don't understand why.
Tyron Smith IMO was always the target, no matter what certain posters or Dallas media tried to force feed us. If you couldnt tell then something is wrong with you. I don't think I've ever seen the Cowboys spend as much time on one player alone as they did on Smith. Anything that involved Smith the Cowboys were there.
I LOVE this pick, for one it gives the Cowboys a set of tackles for the next decade. Teaming Smith up with Woicik is a godsend. Unlike 95% of Cowboy fans i think he'll be fine at RT. Free is no slouch and he played better then Flozell had in years. Smith with his footwork and long arms will be destroying RDEs and their slower motors before we know it. I dont think he will ever have Erik Williams strength, but he'll rival his technique. I thought the day would never come that Jerry would draft a OL in round 1. Great day for me.
Bruce Carter was an elite talent in college before his injury. Yes it might take time heel but he'll heel. Again Woicik is the master and he will do his job. Carter IMO is in Dallas because too much is uncertain about Lee. Too soft or too Injury prone whatever you want to call it, but theres something lacking IMO. Eventually he'll take over for James and be one of the leaders. Actually if you look at him play, for those who live on the west coast and suffered thru plenty of Raider games you'll see alot of similarities to Kirk Morrison. A guy Ryan loves. Nothing flashy jst gets the job done and is in on virtually every play.
Im excited to see how he'll be used and how early he'll be worked into the gameplan.
I'll admit beyond these two i dont know much about any of the guys they picked after these two. So i wont comment on them and try to seem like i know what im talking about. All ill say s i dont understand the Murray pick. I know Dallas needs a Big RB for tough yards But why there and then?
Onthe first two picks alone i love this draft tho. Go Cowboys!
