Didn't Hansford start out as a WR or am I thinking of someone else?
Kinda what I was thinking. And being from Wisconsin, you would think he would be a good blocker.jr15aggie said:
I hope that TE we got surprises us. The word I hear is that his production and film is really good, he just didn't run a very good 40 at the combine.
Just going off tape he's was a really nice college TE and should have gone much higher.

True, but Amari and Collins were no longer in their future plans and it was more about clearing the cap space and taking the dead cap hit now so we can get cap healthy again starting next year.
But yeah, with the trades we saw Day 1, a 3rd rounder would have been nice.
I didn't watch Tech much last year so I didn't see the kicker but he was perfect from less than 50 yds and only missed one over 50. Long was 62. Would be nice to get an upgrade there.Quote:

That would be awesome if true!Macarthur said:
You def see a pattern of them drafting high level athletes.
One interesting thing I'm reading is that there is a lot of buzz about last years 7th rounder, Faironok, taking that Center position. Apparently he's pushing Biadasz big time. Fairinok is apparently up to over 320 and has a better anchor than Biadasz.

That could also explain why they didn't pull the trigger on Jermaine Johnson in the 1st round.jr15aggie said:
I'm just now getting around to watching some Sam Williams film... holy crap this guy is really good!
I felt this draft had 2 top flight DEs (Hutchinson and Kayvon Thib.)... I felt like the rest were good prospects but not likely to be elite pass rushers. Not anymore... add Williams to that list and this draft had 3 really good DE/pass rushing prospects and the Cowboys got one of them in the 2nd round.
Really excited to watch this kid grow. Double digit sacks is not a fair expectation, but I'd be shocked if his impact isn't felt as a rookie. I'm very much looking forward to this guy and Parsons coming off the edge side by side with stunts, bull rushes, etc!!!

Agreed. Some players have to go, and after everything if Gregory felt like he could sign then whatever. The Cowboys did everything they could for that guy.jr15aggie said:Macarthur said:Brian Baldinger Brining Tears Of Joy To My Eyes with hisscouting review of Sam Williams.

And this is exactly why you don't pay Gregory. Sorry for being a broken record, but you can't pay everyone... you can't keep bringing the same guys back every year and expecting different results on the field.
You gotta draft well and hope that some of this new blood brings an attitude to the field that the previous guy didn't. My expectations are extremely high for Williams considering he's sharing the field with Tank & Parsons who will draw a lot of attention.
That means we should put good money down that he will have an all-pro career I guess.jr15aggie said:
Heard some post draft talk from the Cowboys media guys... if Tyler Smith was off the board and Zion and Kenyon were there instead, the Cowboys would not have drafted either one. Said we would have gone BPA which probably would have been Lloyd or one of those Safeties.
Said they were sorta hoping Green would be gone and they wouldn't have to make that decision. The Cowboys had a lot of concern he would not have a very long NFL career with a degenerative knee.
