Dallas Cowboys 2018 offseason thread

[Drew 2539]

might be a time to trade a 4th to move up a few spots, lol

[futureman 22554]

this bills pick is BIG...

[futureman 22554]

derwin still there.

[Drew 2539]

Damn Edmons.  Derwin still on the board though...

[Drew 2539]

still 2 picks left...someone is taking Derwin.  Or the Cowboys pass on him and get earl.  that'll upset some people, lol.

[Drew 2539]

maranelli in the war room. definitely defense here.

[GlenFromTheMailRoom 1613]

Holy fuck Derwin might be there.

 

[GlenFromTheMailRoom 1613]

For the love of god, take Jackson San Diego.  But I don’t think Seattle let’s him pass by.

James to chargers..... Damn.

[GlenFromTheMailRoom 1613]

Sooo Ridley or Moore?

[Drew 2539]

No way both Chargers and Seattle let a guy slip to us.  They always seem to picking the same board.

What's neither????  Trade down if they don't feel they can make Landry fit.....

[Jive Turkey 12649]

If we hadn’t beaten Philly in that meaningless last game, we would have picked 16. 

[bborange 10131]

I hope they trade down.  Lot of players that fit needs.

would have required Philly to score more than zero points. People forget that.  Even Cooper Rush get them in FG range once, lol.

 

But yeah.  Maybe they never thought Derwin was an option.

I don’t think anyone thought he’d be there at 17.

[Drew 2539]

War Room looks happy.  Definitely Defense not a WR.  Probably LVE, since that's who they seemed tied too all along.

The only way that happens is if someone wants to jump up to get Jackson or Rudolph.

[Patrick Bateman 3933]

Jaire Alexander for Packers.

Jerry’s ego quota met for the night by hosting and attendance record.  So, might be a possibility.

[Patrick Bateman 3933]

Meh.... let's take a pass rusher or move down.....

Where you keep seeing war room?

But Randy Gregory Bruh.

[GlenFromTheMailRoom 1613]

It has to be Ridley or Moore right?

[Patrick Bateman 3933]

Just now, GlenFromTheMailRoom said:

Yea.... statement still stands.  Can't have too many pass rushers.

[Drew 2539]

they won't take Landry right? They want to see some of us defending the LVE pick into eternity.  yikes.

seems like almost everyone cleared him from it.  not sure why it became an issue so late in the process.  he played every game last year at a good level.

[GlenFromTheMailRoom 1613]

The only reason we take LVE is if Jerry’s thinks he’s the next urlacher.  For the love of ducking Christ pick ridley.  My liver can’t handle Vander Essche.

[Mo Horn 8855]

Evans from Bama?

Said 5-6 teams took him off their board.... didn't drop him, removed him from consideration.... That's weird.

give me landry

[GlenFromTheMailRoom 1613]

Jones looks smug as fuck right now

[Patrick Bateman 3933]

 

[Drew 2539]

Awesome.  now I get to spend all off season defending this pick.  And I think he's a good player.

Wish they had traded back.  Lots of names on the board.

[Best served cold 150]

Wow! Did not see that coming with both Ridley and Moore still available. 

[Mo Horn 8855]

 I'm good with it

[GlenFromTheMailRoom 1613]

Moooother Fuuckkkeer.

[Pato del Muerto 52620]

ESPN tells me he’s a former walk on and one year starter. 

So he got good a year ago?

[Mo Horn 8855]

Lee can't stay healthy

wouldn't be the first time a guy had 1 good season and got drafted.  I think he'll be good.

 

Maybe would have preferred a trade back...but not mad at this.  Makes sense.

He played 8 man football in HS because of the sparse population.... Had a lot to learn.

If you want to learn about him, here's a good article.

[D_Goose 489]

Joe Dirt from hard knocks would be good comparison to Vander Esch.

[Get ln My Van 927]

Know we need linebacker help. Hate the pick. Fuck all these Boise players. Love to eat crow though

[Drew 2539]

good article recommendation Patrick.

 

He's already pretty good.  I suspect he'll get better.  Lots to like there.  Even if it isn't flashy.

[GlenFromTheMailRoom 1613]

Stop trying to make this pick give you the warm and fuzzies.  Our wr corp is abysmal and for some fucking reason we passed on wr1 and wr2 in the entire draft.

[Mo Horn 8855]

 

 

[In10se 175]

Definitely reached for need and not best player available. That usually has a way of biting you in the ass in the 1st 2 rounds. 

Dont like taking LB in 1st. Usually about 6 or 7 years is all you get before they are too beaten up and decline sharply unless they take 5 redshirt seasons like Lee.
