Vander Esch

Ridley and Dj Moore

ok tell me how much of difference would have made in their first year

Ridley is NFL ready. You think Dallas is a super bowl contender in 2018?

Taco is a LE. Need a speed rusher at RE

Taco is RDE

 

[GhostOfPelluer]

He’s not, same size as DLaw as prospect and played with his hand in the dirt at BC.

Literally the perfect RDE prospect for us.

As much as LVE doesn't bother me, I would have preferred Landry

 

[revospeed]

I just don't get it. You lose Dez and have Ridley and Dj Moore staring you in the face...........and we pick LB who was a borderline 1st rounder. Trade back. Why wouldn't GB have offered us that trade?

Why is DJ Moore a sure fire first rounder?

 

[kevinhickey]

I like the kid. He's got heart and some fire...........but #19? Common Jerry!

Come on, the Steelers would be all over this pick.

 

[GreenMean69]

Not thrilled he has medical issues...James or Edmunds or even Evans or Riddley all better picks..even Landry

a TE would not of been bad pick Goedert or Gesicki , both of them would be huge help to Dak . Having 2 TE setup witten / Goedert Hurns / Beasly and Zeke in the back. It would be next to impossible to defend

You don't know that.

Its not the player, its the draft management. Even the ESPN guys were shocked.

 

[GreenMean69]

Getting the old man some protection .....

To me they aren’t even on the same page as prospects...

Landry and Ridley were the BPAs available by a good sized margin.

This has to be considered a commentary on what the team thinks about Jaylon Smith’s progress.

It may be more a commentary on Lee. He's getting up there in years and keeps breaking down.

I'm a Landry fan, too. Not so much WR just because the WR depth is tremendous this season.

What exactly are his medical issues?

The bottom line is that we are at worse shape at LB than at WR (on a run first team). Vander Esch isn't some "Rudy" guy. He has legitimate speed and really good instincts in coverage.Plenty of WR in round 2.

He had a neck stinger his Freshman year. He checked out at the combine with a 4-5 for his medical (and was not required to re-test) He's fine.

He's the 24th pick. Do you not follow college football?

LVE was the 19th pic. Do you not follow college football?

What exactly are his medical issues?

The report at BAN-INCOMING-IN-3-2-1indicated that Vander Esch — a possible first-round linebacker following a breakout 2017 season — had been removed from at least one team's board for medical reasons, and it added that four other teams believed he was a second-round talent.

The WF report doesn't specifically mention which injury concerned teams most, as the 6-foot-4, 256-pound Vander Esch did suffer multiple injuries in his career at Boise State.

I disagree. Dak is going to have no where to go with the ball at this rate. Look for teams to load the box , stuff the short throws, and give Zeke fits again b/c we have nobody on the outside they need to worry about.

I don't watch the mountain west. I stick with the big boy conferences. DJ Moore and Ridley were always the 2 best wrs. Vander Esch is a small school projection coming off a cervical neck injury.

Only draft Big 10 and SEC players. Good luck with that. Let’s just forget that our best defensive player went to the sane school.
