That's a huge if though. The redshirt doesn't bother me either, but the risk that he never plays or is never the same player bothers me a lot in the second round.
Not just in the second, but with the 3rd fucking pick in the second.

Well, of course if he gets healthy, he is a HUGE steal, but we very well may have just drafted a player at 34 that will never play a down of football for us.
Not arguing that. They should have taken whatever trade down option they had if they wanted him that bad.

That is a rich choice to roll the dice on.

I guess you either trust our doctor or you don't. Should be interesting hearing the teams explanation of the injury today or tomorrow.

Makes up for the Eli Apple fuck up last night, that is for sure.
No shit. That pick was horrible. The Giants shit the bed on the pick like we often do after we've zeroed in on a guy with no contingency plan.

This was a solid 2nd round.

Would be nice if we got a guy who could play this year.

It was panic since they thought they would get Floyd.

Jerry has never truly valued 2nd round picks. That's his playground. The boom/bust guys, the guys coaches are in love with, etc.

Smith is a big gamble, but it could pay off huge. Love the player, hope he gets healthy.

Kinda flies in the face of win now/maximizing Romo's window though.

No it doesn't. Just because they got a good 2nd rounder, doesn't make their first rounder any better. They shit down their leg on that pick. No changing it now.

Let's just be glad they didn't end up with Tunsil and Shepherd.

Be funny in practice when the 2nd round WR routinely beats the Top 10 DB

:lol

So they reach for a corner and get a second round receiver in the second round and it's all good?
No, it just means they fucked up in the first and made ground with a great pick in the second.

If Cruz is healthy, this kid makes everyone spread out and Manning can play dink and dunk all day long.

And it was obvious. Floyd, Zeke, and the OTs they coveted were all gone and they didn't know what to do.

I don't think they give a shit about the OL.

Their whole deal now is to get the ball out of Eli's hands very very fast.
