I gather that Onyemata will be the back-up to Rankins down the road.

Or a 0/1 Tech...

Chatter has been that Payton and D.A. don't care for John Jenkins...

Which makes sense. It's not about filling holes more so than improving weak positions.

Yes! This is my point. Y'all can pretend to be armchair GM's, but you cannot have more than a fraction of the information on these players than the people in that draft room. Then y'all ***** and moan about every pick made.

And, no, I am definitely not a "yes man". Far from it, but I am intelligent enough to know what I cannot have the ability to know.

Fry, dude, there's a way to block a person if you don't want to see their comments.

I've personally found it very useful.

I have already ignored him. But can see what he posts when quoted.

Have to ask if it's not a conflict of interest that Dallas' Doctor on Staff did Jaylon's surgery and follow up prognosis...

Smith was suppose to be all that promise prior to injury...

Then every scout who saw the medical reports and consulted doctors from all over the country basically said he'd be lucky to play again...

And then Dallas takes him at the top of the second round...

Sounds like Jerruh is playing with a marked deck, Texas style...

Collins had admitted how he and Jerruh had been on the phone the past week discussing playing for Dallas...

Then the story hits how he's somehow a possible material witness in a young mother's murder...

Something's rotten in Big Dallas...

We started discussing this last night...Not one bright-eyed bushy tailed professional know-it-all reporter even posed this question...

If he was informed, he'd realize we just hired to scouts that were fired from the Jets and the Browns - two teams that are regular bottom feeders...

Yeah. He's a broken record and a hypocrite to boot. All fans are idiots who don't know any better. All except Guido of course. With his accounting degree and obvious clairvoyance.. thank God he's here to guide us poor little peons.

Dont know anything about this kid.
If he can set the edge and help in the run game early on it could be a good pick
All the raw ingredients looks to be there. Will be interesting to see what he brings

What was the trade guys?
