Draft Weekend Chatter Thread...

Funny how our first seventh rounder would have made more sense in the fourth round.

 

[Stars]

Pleasantly surprised.

1st team All PAC-10 last year, 24.5 TFL and 12 sacks over the past 2 seasons, good size for a strongside DE, can't complain about that in the 7th.

Round 5-7: A mishmash of Charlotte, Spaulding or the creepy guy with the long hair wants.

I will give this one to Chris Hall.

Gardner was not invited to the combine, but his Pro Day was excellent.

No shit. This was actually a really good pick.

Ben Gardner.

Not bad.

Better 3-4 guy but whatevas.

I always felt like he was playing in the wrong scheme and was a better fit in a 4-3 as a strong side DE.

ESPN going live to a gay sports bar in LA while they anticipate Sam being drafted.

Not kidding.

There's a Cowboys bar in LA?

Connor Shaw...Quarles...let me have one.

 

[Simpleton]

I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to bulk this guy up about 10 lbs or so and play him a little at the 3.

Screw Shaw. Give me Quarles and Christian Jones.

 

[boozeman]

I just hope they take big school players the rest of the way, just like Gardner.

He is definitely going to be a DT. He's also used to the right side, so it makes sense to put him at 3-T.

Poor man's Chris Long. LDE who can kick inside on passing downs. We are not having that bad of a draft really. Got greedy in the 2nd and then completely f'd the pooch in the 4th. It's funny (sad?) that the 4th round pick was so God awful that it had made most of us hate this draft.

Add 10-15 pounds over the next year or so and he'd have a shot there.

Screw Shaw. Give me Quarles and Christian Jones.

No.

3 WRs for GB?

I am starting to get how things roll in Dallas.

Round 1: Usually get their shit together and make the right pick.

Round 2: Jerry's choice. Everyone just shuts up and lets him have his way.

Round 3: Consensus. Let everyone argue it out.

Round 4: Scout's choice. Whatever dipshit the scouting staff wants to appear smart about.

Round 5-7: A mishmash of Charlotte, Spaulding or the creepy guy with the long hair wants.

Shit this is spot on. Notice how often that 3rd round pick gets traded away?
