DT is a far more important position to pickup.The tier one guys are really good this year

Not a bust just a normal draft talent at his slot in the draft, we have been spoiled by McClay with his quick performing picks from the past. Taco is what normally happens when you pick that late in the first round for need. I agree the path for Taco will be defined this year, maybe bust maybe better things either way year three as they say separates the wheat from the chafe and either way I still have complete trust in the scouts.imo DE bigger priority than TE,Taco is a bust.
The more concerning thing other than his poor workout was his behavior and attitude.

~I also like Charles Omenihu,Texas...6'6...long arms...good pass rusher and is good vs the run...at least in the games I watched he was.
I’d agree, DT is more important to me as well but DE just skyrocketed up the needs list so it should be a consideration for us in the 2nd.
I think taco was a coaches pick.
He had a pretty nice combine. He's also 280 right now so he has some room to get bigger as well. A lot of people may forget, he actually started as a FB so he probably isn't the finished product he will be if he gets the right coaching. I really like him as well and he is somebody who should definitely be there for us as an option.
Not at 58, we already had Taco as a 28th pick as a "project" player, per the Cowboys themselves, if we take a DE at 58 he's can't be someone who's still learning the position...
I don't know why not. Taco doesn't work. not because of his skills. He doesn't work because of his attitude. They are not the same player but whatever. Truth is, you have no idea who might be available at where we pick or how quickly who goes off the board. We may not have a lot of choice by the time our pick rolls around and BTW, I never said in the 2nd. I said he would likely be available.
Oh hey...you’re back.
HARD PASS.Polite probably will take a tumble as he had a terrible Combine. Maybe not to 58, but he will take a hit.

It did seem like more of a need than best talent available IMO.I think taco was a coaches pick.
Well said about the luck, we have had plenty.Jerry is still trying to recreate the 90's teams that mostly had jags on the d-line, with the exception of Haley and maybe Maryland, using a rotation to keep the rush fresh. That can work if you get just the right combination of average linemen, but there's some luck involved there...
Dexter Lawrence got hurt participating in the combine. Looks like he might fall.
