Hate the Overton pick…overrated Benedict Arnold…

He's got a lot of upside. That's about as much as you can ask with that pick. Nobody consistently good/great is still on the board.


He also graduated from HS a year early. So he's played 4 years of college football, but he's only turning 22 in October of this year.

Went about as good as could reasonably be expected. Between the draft picks and trades we added two starters and two guys who will definitely contribute this year on defense over the last three days.

Still wish we could have flipped one or two fourth round picks for another established linebacker but other than that I love it.

He's extremely strong and physically mature for a rookie DL. That counts for something.

Love the Moore pick

The only thing I don't like about it is he's missed some games due to injury.
AND Kionte Scott was on the board. If this young DC can't figure out how to play Downs and Scott at the same time… get back to the drawing board.


Hard to get Scott and Downs on the field at the same time this year

But not impossible. 4 wide, QB spy, special teams is enough for me to gamble in the 4th.

Also, Anthony SMith's highlights at ECU look like a dominate high school propect. Just bigger and faster than everyone.

They need guys on rookie deals, so flipping one makes sense. Flipping more than that starts to pile up, especially with the trades they did previously turning picks into guys with bigger contracts (some of which will need another one soon)

It's funny that you don't recognize the inherently contradictory nature of this post

He's gonna have to be a special teams demon if he's gonna have any shot.

The Miami game did him no favors. It wasn't that he was terrible, but it highlighted his limitations.

If anyone finds the list of undrafted players we signed , post it here. Thanks.

This was definitely a great weekend for Dallas. Coming away with 2 immediate starters and 2 guys you expect to to be key pieces right away is awesome.

It gets really fun when one of the guys projects to be a multi year team captain / pro bowler and another has the skills to reach double digit sacks.

You never know, but it's hard to imagine not looking back at this draft in a few years and calling it a success.

Hoping we see Russell Maryland's son RJ get signed.

Oddly enough when the Cowboys staff came to College Station for pro day they took all the NFL prospects out to dinner but didn't include EJ.

He was a huge part of our team this year and kinda unexpectedly. Wishing big things for him

EJ Smith more than peaked last year - Moss is the back that should have been the target

Crazy athletic TE from Baylor.I'm guessing he's a questionable blocker to be available as a UDFA.

That's not why he went undrafted though. He's a head case with off the field flags.

Saw some of that conversation on twitter after I posted. Some people who seemed to be knowledgeable said he seemed to turn a corner this past season.

He's the guy who the philandering Baylor AD chewed out because he wore yellow sleeves.

Found his vertical leap, which looks to be only slightly better than mine. That said, apparently he was dealing with a hammy issue vs being 51 years old.

Saw the poor testing numbers and thought that was weird because that didn't show up when you watched their games. Made some freakish catches.

That Florida corner is supposed to be a beast as well. 4.3 speed that didn't show up at the combine bc of injuries but he wanted to compete. Hes supposed to be super talented and could be a star in the league. His downfall is that he's been injury prone.
Vessel

Yes and he's not a "redshirt" guy right now. He should be good for OTAs, as I understand it. But he gets injured a lot.

So what I heard on McCoy is that they expect him ready for the season. The question is does he make it to a 2nd contract.

I love Overshown but if he wants to chase the almighty dollar he's welcome to find a new team next offseason.

If he stays healthy for a full season, just tag him.

Sounds like I might go from Overshown fanboy to Overshown critic real fast!

I have zero issues with this from the business side of things, I completely understand. But as a fan... bye Felicia!

Regarding the Draft, this was probably the most fun I've ever had it (which goes back to February when I started really digging into draft podcasts and watching a little film).

The talk leading up to the draft was so good because the possibilities were numerous with 2 picks on Thursday. 3 full months of anticipation/entertainment.

And, of course, the payoff was just about perfect. The Downs drop that we all knew was very unlikely, but very possible, happens. The trade back at 20 and still getting one of the top edge prospects. It was all just so good.
