We've going to need to trade up in the second. Have to get a defensive back.

Trade up and take Obi Meilifonwu, I love that guy.

Meh pick for sure. We better hope Jalen smith can come back to 100 percent.

4.9 40? That can't be right.

If thats true that remarkably slow for a 1st rd DE.

Starting to hear more and more things...

1. Cowboys don't favor Tak or Watt... they are too light and don't fit the Cowboys ideal size / type. Cowboys would take Taco Charlton over either. 6'6" 270+ >>> 6'3" 250 according to the Cowboys


I tried to tell you guys, but some of y'all wouldn't listen!

Seems like a hoss that can hold the edge. But I dont see him being an explosive guy that disrupts a passing game.

Don't love Taco as a pick.

I love tacos as a food.


I'd rather:

King
or Foster
or maybe even Bowser from Cougar High....


It may lead to a new special menu item at AT&T Stadium.

I think it's a knock against his edge pass rush speed.


It all depends on how fast he plays with pads on. Taco played great against tOSU when it mattered.

Taco may not be Michael Strahan, but he's better than who we have. Cowboys have a couple of guys that used to work at a car wash.

Boring, smart pick. Reminds me of Travis Frederick selection.

He was projected by many in the top 18, we are lucky to have him.

The 40 means nothing in edge rushing. The dude ran a 4.39 shuttle and a 7.17 3 cone at the combine. His edge speed is fantastic.

I've seen him mocked top 10. I trust our scouts and Taco has always been a solid pick. He may never be a pro bowl sack artist, but I'll take another Greg Ellis any day.

I'm pleased... But Friggin A we need to get some DBs now!

You kinda have to trust the scouts at this point. It's been a long time since they missed on a 1st rounder. I wanted Watt but I'll live.

Cowboys should have gotten watt

What's his quarter? Less than 50 or gtfo!

Definition of long? Because I can think of a big one this decade.

Ticket guys are saying that he's not better than who they have. Bob is especially angry that they took a guy who will likely take snaps away from David Irving, seeing as they play the same position and technique.

Yep. 4.9 Forty. Only started three games as a junior. One season as full time starter. Meh pick

Would have taken a chance on Rueben Foster before Taco

it'll be interesting to see Watt vs Taco as their careers go forward.

Who Claiborne? He was a consensus top 5 talent who had injuries. I wouldn't say that was a mis-evaluation.

If NFC East quarterbacks start taking shotgun snaps 40 yards deep, then the Taco pick was wasted.

Just heard his interview, played on two bad ankles later in the year and it was extremely painful to push off. Said that's why he didn't play in the senior bowl.
