May 1, 20214 yr They're certainly addressing the biggest weakness. Will they pan out, who knows. The single thing holding back this team since Dak's ascension is the defense.

May 1, 20214 yr 23 minutes ago, dcar00 said: good point. now we are taking tall UDFA corners in the 3rd round so.....progress? I'd also have to attribute some of our issues drafting for defense to our instability on that side ball since Parcells left. We've remained fairly stable on the offensive side of the ball for the past 15 years while we've been the epitome of volatility on the defensive side of the ball. Stability makes it easier for scouts and the entire front office to pinpoint what type of players have success in a system. Changing defensive schemes every 2 or 3 years probably limits the ability for scouts to evaluate talent at consistently proficient level.
May 1, 20214 yr Is there an OL or Safety available worth moving up from pick #138 to maybe around #128
May 1, 20214 yr I think I id rather have taken Bobby brown instead of the ucla guy yesterday. At least he’s a real dt. Though an Arlington kid playing for the cowboys could have its extra good and bad, depending on his situation.
May 1, 20214 yr Holy shit, a good, solid value pick. Highly athletic LB, who addresses a hole -- coverage LB. I'm definitely on board with this pick at this juncture. At worst, he'll probably be an above-average special teamer this year. With Parsons and Cox, we could be seeing the end of LVE and Smith after this year.

May 1, 20214 yr Would like them to look at Togiai, M.Wilson and K.Tonga at 1T. Still would be happy with an OT.

Bobby Brown is lazy and will flame out if he doesn’t figure out how to put in the work, we went with his polar opposite. I don’t mind the exact guys we have taken, I hate that we’re operating like we have 50 slots between each pick and are grabbing guys way too early.

The single thing holding back this team since Romo's ascension is the Joneses. They've had 15 straight years of top 10 level franchise QB play and have 3 wild card game wins. With a top 10 QB being an average team is the absolute floor. And they've managed to stay at the floor

May 1, 20214 yr Dane said Ball is a Top100 talent. Good frame. Smart Has a DV issue/character concern.

May 1, 20214 yr Back to shitty value and character issues. Kicked out of FSU for assaulting his ex-girlfriend.

He certainly doesn't sound like he's grown up. Surely his representation worked with him on a better response than this.....

I get it. he could have left out "everybody has moved on" and just said the past is the past no comment. he was never charged with anything but if he said something wrong maybe he could be. my guess is everyone around him tells him not to comment on it. what he did was bad but words are just words(he appears to not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, regardless of what he said). it only matters how he acts.

So, I don't agree. Actions absolutely speak louder than words, but words, sentiments and genuine communicable emotions do matter especially in a public arena. He's had, 5-6 months to really prepare for the draft? He knew he was going to get asked this question and he failed at it. Regardless, he's going to get his 2nd chance (which I believe in) and hopefully he can make it count, but I'm going to guess the odds aren't in his favor when it comes to these type of issues. The flat out failure in the 3rd round bleeds into this decision too, which is kick in the groin. Did it work out for Lattimer!!!!!

May 1, 20214 yr 4 safeties have gone in the last 7 picks. Maybe Washington from TCU? He's short, but he's smart, has good instincts, decent agility, and will play the run.

May 1, 20214 yr 19 minutes ago, youdunnf'dup said: Definitely wanted him. I would’ve been happy with him yesterday honestly Welp, he's on the board. But, we got with a WR with drops issues. But okay. He's a really good athlete. And not to belabor the point, but to give credit where due. Ball had the opportunity to answer the question again and did much better. Don't know If I need the lack of self-awareness but acknowledging, taking accountability (even if vague for legal reasons), and looking towards the future is a fine answer. Doesn't erase what he did and he'll have to wear that until he doesn't, but a better answer. Edited May 1, 20214 yr by Patrick Bateman Clarification
May 1, 20214 yr I guess we’re at that point in the draft, Dallas picks Fehoko and the NFL Network couldn’t give a fuck, threw to commercial. Well, couldn’t give a fuck about Dallas, LeRoy Butler is on announcing GB picks every five seconds.
May 1, 20214 yr feels like a BPA, can't believe he dropped that much pick we don't need a WR but it appears to be very good value. I'd rather have had value at DT/DE in the 3rd.
