Wonder why they chose this guy out of a pack of similarly rated TEs, plus the Georgia kid rated much higher but seemingly on potential and not production. 

Spaulding got to make this pick. Roosevelt is the third round picker, the Gene Jones.

Ga TE seemed like the move there if you wanted a TE. Michigan guy looks slow. Wanted ringo, dude has been elite everywhere he’s been .

Looks like we traded down in the 3rd

Hardly any guards off the board. Good spot to get one in the 3rd.

You’ll take Overshown and like it.

Wow, wrong Longhorn. But that could be a great fit, hybrid type guy for that D.

Oh for fucks sake. Overshown? 

Well, I was thinking part of roschon’s value was as a good special teams player. I guess I should give dmo the same courtesy.

As Texas fans we all know how big of a reach this is. Just a brutal pick.

I would have gone with Ringo here and if Overshown happened to still be on the board next round, he would be considered.

I don’t think so. 3rd round maybe 4th round at worst. He’s athleticism and they see as a rusher.

And he plays tons of special teams. He could make an impact this year and maybe be a starter when LVE is gone next year.

He’s a hybrid LB and perfect for DQ.

I think I’d have gone Ringo. But it’s she e perfect scheme for Overshown to drop into. He played S and LB quite a bit. The cowboys will like that.

He has all the tools 

Ummm… 

Well, when is he going to start using all of them?

👀

Overshown is a lot of potential. He'll have better protection keeping him clean than he had at Texas. 

Was hoping for RoJo but I think Overshown could really flourish with Dan Quinn. 

Ridiculous athlete, and if you can get him to run the defense as called and stay away from injury, you may have a special player. But those are two really big “ifs.”  They must have fallen in love with him, and heard some other team felt the same, hence the third round grade. But all the projections I saw had him much lower.

It's pick 90.  If he was high on their board there was zero chance he was lasting to pick 129

Right, it may be a bit high for him, but I think they can see him playing a big role in Quinn's funkyass defense.

He needs to get stronger and he's a really good athlete but not an elite for the position.  I tend to trust Quinn's evaluations so I'll be cautiously optimistic and he'll be easy to root for but dude needs another 10 lbs on him and he needs to come in with his hair on fire.  I'll say this, McClay and company have a game plan for their drafts and they tend to stay very specific to them.  They don't account for falling players much and tend to ignore them if they do.  They did see the weaknesses as a lot of us did:

0-1 Tech, CB, TE, Hair on fire LB, RB, OG.  I expect to see a CB, RB or guard next....

Yeah I thought 5th Rd or later for DO, but Cowboys are probably gonna use him on the Edge some on 3rd downs...  So his value increases along with special teams.  🤘

That could be the thought with who they drafted in the first round.  Get an athletic freak up the middle to cause havoc and then get a guy who flows to the ball pretty well but doesn't have the strength to deal with NFL guards to use that havoc to his advantage.  

Not that espn is necessary correct but they did have dmo on page 1 of their best available, around 20 I think at the time. So they had a 4th round grade for him. Late third isn’t much of a reach compared with that. 

Night night Vander ech

CBS is so shit for opinions lol

Major tackling issue?

pete prisco’s draft grades after the first round looked like someone on a Ayahuasca fever dream journey. 

He has all of the tools except size, play recognition and the ability to scrape off blocks. But he’s fast look at his shuttle and 40!!!!!! The Toolz!!!!

The 2nd round pick is the head scratcher for me on their draft. 2nd round is early for a blocking TE

he’s got a lot higher ceiling than “blocking tight end”

 


 

 

Better than I thought from watching a little of him. At least he has tools to work with.

He's a really good athlete, a little better than anyone we've had since Martellus.

Here's a good look.  Problem is he's old.  We get this guy in the 3 or 4th round, we're probably excited as hell.  He's a better athlete than Ferguson and I think we can all agree we were satisfied with his rookie year.  Definitely an unsexy draft thus far though.  Probably get a OG in the 4th.  LOL.

That same toolbag gave Atlanta a D for picking Bijan.
