He'd also be stuck behind the behemoth that is Geoff Schwartz.
I'd take Collins over Flowers easily actually.
That's my take.The problem is I remember some games where Leary was just blowing people off the ball. He has his mental lapses but physically he was a beast at times last year. I think he slowed down a little as the season went on but man early on he looked like he might be a borderline probowl player.
Imagine if someone told you before the draft that Dallas would land Byron Jones, Randy Gregory, and La'el Collins without even touching future picks.
Mayock said he was the best tackle in the draft. Baldinger said either the Redskins or Giants probably would have taken him.Where the hell are you getting this from? He was projected 15-25 almost all year pre-draft, and then some had him possibly going top 10 right before the crap happened.
Whether or not he's going to be another Zack Martin, you have to admit this isn't some borderline first rounder.Mayock said he was the best tackle in the draft. Baldinger said either the Redskins or Giants probably would have taken him.
Yep. Just absolutely amazing circumstances.Whether or not he's going to be another Zack Martin, you have to admit this isn't some borderline first rounder.
This is a top 10, top 15, walk-in-and-be-instant-starter, Pro Bowl Caliber type lineman.
How can you not be pumped? And how can you not say he's not taking over for Free or Leary very soon?
The beast known as Chaz Green will become known as the final brick in the wall.So if Collins moves out to RT next year, does that mean we have to go fish for a new guard, or do we sign Leary long term anyway?
First roundersProbowlers only?
Say that when all 3 have signed those rookie contracts and gotten that fat assed signing bonuses.Poor Byron Jones.
He was our first round pick and he's only getting the third most attention of any player we've acquired in the last week.
What if he plays LG? Would playing OG and getting potentially paid like Carl Nicks/Jahri Evans/Logan Mankins really suck? They don't get top LT money, but an All Pro guard can easily make huge cash.Not just this, but he can't even market himself as a LT free agent in three years.
LT is occupied in Dallas, now and for the foreseeable future.
At least he has a shot at the position elsewhere.
Anywhere he goes today will be same money and same terms, so he has to bank everything on his next contract.
By signing with Dallas today, he's automatically costing himself a shot at more guaranteed millions in a few years.
We'll have to murder someone he knows and get him as an UDFA.So the next time there's a franchise level QB available at the top of the draft, have we secured the talent on this team so that it's reasonable to trade up for one? We've established a team for the future now, looking into post Romo is a must.
I'm not looking at their dicks.Say that when all 3 have signed those rookie contracts and gotten that fat assed signing bonuses.
We'll see who's dick is biggest then.
