Panthers on Cowboys Board

So they had Star ranked third best DT?

 

They did, but they ONLY ranked players they knew they wanted on their team.

Due to the players they already have and their switch to a 4 -3, Star is the only pure NT listed, the other DTs are stronger UT.

I actually find this quite interesting. Everyone gave them crap for the Center pick (myself included), but they actually had Frederick listed as a second round pick. The problem was that all 18 of their first round graded guys went ahead of them (as well as some 2nd round grades) and Frederick was the BPA on their board.

 

Though what's odd is that they didn't follow this strategy throughout, since after Frederick Terrance Williams was their next highest ranked player and he was there at their second pick, but they passed on him for Escobar (though they did still end up with Williams in the 3rd). They also let Barkley and Nassib slide to the 4th despite having 2nd round grades on them.

 

I understand it's situational, but why even rank guys so high if you're not gonna draft them when their available for your next two picks? Instead they took J.J. Wilcox, whom they only had a 3rd round grade for. It makes sense for them to amend the BPA philosophy and not take a QB in the 2nd or 3rd, but why not do that in the first as well and not take a center?  :lol:

The real strange thing is they had Floyd as a top 5 guy and they had him sitting there at 18 but they traded down to get the center... Talk about sticking to your board lol

Yeah I didn't even think about them trading down. So they were sitting at 18 and had exactly 18 guys ranked as first rounders, so they would get one of their first round guys regardless (would've have the option of Floyd, Rhodes, Patterson, Eifert, and Werner). Basically they planned their entire board (well, the first round) around their 18th pick...I'm thinking you should consider other options (a la, a trade down) when filling out these things, but that's just me.

    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game to go around   and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important.
