Mr. Scot

FYI: When the Lions called Penei Sewell last night, they welcomed him into their "pride".

Papa Joe doesn't think his son is getting the proper amount of attention.

For a lot of the early years, it seemed like anytime we had a choice between two players, we picked the wrong one. The best examples of that of course are taking Kerry Collins over Steve McNair and Tshimanga Biakabutuka over Eddie George.

DeShaun Foster is kind of a dilemma for me. I'd certainly never say he was a bad pick. He had some really good years with us and I think if we'd have relied more on him than Stephen Davis in the Super Bowl, we might have won it. But he was picked ahead of Clinton Portis, primarily because the son of one of his college coaches was on our staff at the time if I recall correctly. Was that the right choice?

There's a trend in what you're seeing here. Ditto.

FYI: a bit of post script... Breer says from what he's heard, Sewell would have been the pick if he'd been there. (Person believes that too)

And only one of those with a competent GM...

She's a good woman and I love her despite her team allegiance. That said, she's one of those hardcore Cowboy fans that everybody hates, and unapologetically so

A second round left tackle named Little? I'm not sure I can sign on for that

I get that. I do think it's possible we go the free agent tackle route depending on what happens in the draft.

Nor should they be...

Sounds like the talk about us getting Lock from Denver is now out the window too.

Yeah, sure I'm not interested in talking in circles with you dude. Spin it however you want. The team is committed to Darnold.

Technically, neither was Sewell. (big difference in talent level and potential, of course)

That sounds like Russell Okung, the sequel.

You kind of have to have some idea how deep the particular draft is to really answer this.

Courtesy of Ellis... I only recommend looking over the full list if you have a strong stomach (or you're a masochist)

That's a statement that applies to a lot of analytics.

Look in the thread about Albert Breer mocking Fields to the Panthers. You'll see multiple posters calling Darnold a fallback plan or "insurance". Also stating that it's so obvious they can't imagine how anybody doesn't see it.

Greg Little and Will Grier were drafted before Rhule got here. So yes, they are absolutely Hurney picks.

Been confirmed by a couple of different sources that we didn't see Lance as a good fit.

Between the lady that announced the pick and Parsons giddiness about being drafted to the Cowboys, I got an earful. And yes, she'll be watching the draft with me again tonight

Rhule and Snow have both said that they want to do more press man coverage this year, so yeah that analysis doesn't make sense.
