Where do you stand on the possibility of using our first pick on Jermod McCoy

[TNCowboy]

Pass. I want a guy who can contribute immediately.

He would start and be our best DB if there was a game tomorrow.

 

[sdfidaho]

If he tests well at the combine, he’d be my #1 choice at CB.
So yes
Dream scenario would be Downs at #12 (I know, highly unlikely) and McCoy at #20, but I would be fine with him at #12

 

[nhcowboyfan]

Nope. Against it. Stay away from the injured guys until the 4th or 5th. I’m also over the whole “if eh was so and so he’d be a top 5 pick” argument we make every year. If that’s the case let someone else take him. But no one ever does. It’s always us.

The argument that where a player will likely fall in the draft based on how well he played prior to a significant injury holds no weight with me. How has this worked for us in the past?

From what I’ve read his readiness early is in question due to his recovery from the torn ACL. And for some players it takes two years to fully recover both physically and mentally. Personally I’d prefer Delane if given the choice seeing as how big of a need CB is for us. But that’s just my two cents which means nothing.

His readiness isn't in question at all, apart from a new injury. His injury would be 20 months old by the start of next season.

He would've played late this season if TN hadn't already been out of playoff contention. He was practicing late in the year.

 

[J-man]

He's really good, but not at 12. At 20something yes

 

[Cowboyny]

Tore his ACL 12 months, and hasnt played since

However probably a top 5 pick in this draft if he didnt tear his ACL. He is a better CB prospect than Sauce was coming out imo

Where do you stand on the possibility of him at #12

He is proves he is healthy and ready to go, he is on that short list at 12. Might be able to wait until 19, but probably goes sooner.

Depends on what they do in FA. If they fix LB and edge then absolutely.

Not sure about CBs and ACLS, Revel looks absolutely cooked

No

revel deserves an actual off-season before people start labeling him. Scouts claimed he was a worker type so he deserves the benefit of the doubt. Fans need to ease up on him

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

I don’t mind it.

Folks get spooked by it, but by the time training camp hits he’ll be ~14 months removed from the injury and ~17 months by the time the time the season starts.

Revel was a fringe 1st round prospect. McCoy likely be a Top 10-15 if healthy.

This....if he tests well and does well in the combine there should not be a concern.

He still has to show his speed and workouts at campus or the combine to see how he cuts on that knee.

 

[unionjack8]

Great player, easily top 10 in regards to ability.
Is his rookie year essentially a redshirt year like Revel?
Can we afford that, ?

2nd round pick...oh wait, we don't have any...unless we trade down.

 

[Parcells4Life]

He would start and be our best DB if there was a game tomorrow.

Chances are He wouldn’t be healthy enough to play.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Absolutely not. I’ve had enough of these injured guys in college.

 

[TNCowboy]

Chances are He wouldn’t be healthy enough to play.

He's healthy enough to play now. He was practicing late last season.

 

[reddyuta]

Absolutely no,infact we should stay away from hurt players the whole draft.

 

[Parcells4Life]

He's healthy enough to play now. He was practicing late last season.

Revel even played and he wasn’t football healthy. Maybe being almost 20 months removed would make him healthy for TC but it’s not wise to depend success being on the health of 2 of your 3 starting CBs back from an ACL
