2025 Draft Chatter Thread

[bbgun]

10 picks have gone off the board and ABC is still obsessed with Sanders. Kiper might need a straitjacket in a minute.

Obviously I watched him a lot as a Longhorns fan so here are some quick thoughts...

He's an outstanding receiving back. He's so good as a receiver that he can make a career out of that even if he's average as an actual runner because we've seen elite receiving backs before do exactly that.

As for an actual backfield RB? He's decent at best. He's got great speed and acceleration so if we create some space he can take it to the house.

But his agility is decent at best, his vision isn't very good, and he doesn't break tackles very often.

I like the pick for where we got him and he'll definitely help the offense, but he's nowhere near good enough to be a lead NFL runner.

More excitement in the War Room. Will McClay back on the phone.

Holy shit. Cleveland finally takes Sanders in the 5th round.

AFTER taking the shrimp with the noodle arm.

It seems like a bad QB room to be honest. I guess their plan is to try a Griffin/Cousins thing.

Eberflus in the room.

Eberflus in the room.

I wonder what defensive player?

 

[Bipo]

Blue also has special teams experience. Yep, we're in that portion of Cowboys draft.

 

[chevycowboys]

Dallas picks next

 

[boozeman]

Bond...

I would probably do that too.

 

[GShock]

Up again…

Told you.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Must be a defender we really liked. Just wondering which one.

Pick will be a LBer

Feh on Blue. He's fast, yes. But a sub-200 lb fumbler. Still need a decent lead back.

And dammit, Giddens just went.

 

[Bipo]

Shemar James?

 

[chevycowboys]

These mutherfuckers won’t shut up about sanders

 

[bbgun]

Dislocated kneecap. Sounds like a Dallas pick.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Shemar James?

LBer isn't exciting for me. I dunno. Eberflus is a LBer guy sooooo

 

[Cujo]

Shemar James?

He's a bit light in the ass for a lb

 

[GShock]

What did we give up to move up?
