Yeah, I got low grades in the PFF sim for drafting him in like the 6th round and wondered why. He was pretty celebrated, at least coming into this past year.

I'll be honest, wasn't sure who he was so I had to look him up. Productive but real slow. My guess is they would be looking at bulking him up for DT? Came in at 279 at the combine but his college listed weight was in the 290s. Makes me wonder if he shed pounds for the combine thinking it would help him. I'd rather see him as a 6'4" 300 pound guy running a 5.1 forty and playing DT.

Definitely a day three guy in my book. 5.11 forty time is just too slow for teams to view him as a DE.

Who the hell is Ryan Feder?

Good RB, I like him. But I like a lot of RBs in this draft. I think Spears reminds me a lot of what we all heard when we drafted Pollard. Elite receiving RB. I know people are thinking we will draft a Zeke replacement (In terms of skills) but it's possible they look for a guy who is more Pollard like to replace Pollard a year from now, and don't really view a big need for what Zeke did (Not much last year if we are being honest).

Stephen Jones mentioned a thunder for Pollard’s lightning, meaning a bigger back. We might end up drafting two.

Wouldn't shock me either. Although Stephen and Jerry were the ones spouting about keeping Zeke before we cut him. So I wonder how much actual input they have in these matters. I think they are doing whatever the coaches want, as long as it doesn't cost too much money.

Would rather draft a RB with a skill set closer to Pollard's, to be honest.

Sounds like he must have a few teams that view him as a worthwhile NFL prospect. I'm not going to pretend to be able to judge kickers.

He played at Maryland and made a bunch of kicks at long distance and at a high percentage, that's about all I know.

Yeah I guess he is the top ranked kicker in this draft. Which really just means he is probably draftable. But I'm glad to see Dallas is putting in some effort at kicker in the draft and not just signing some turd off of Tech's roster...
