Are the players to be intimidated by our stadium that they need the star on the practice field to get used to it? Is he trying to fire them up about playing Dallas?

We are barely a winning team and our stadium is notoriously docile. Ive never heard of a coach doing something like that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To make them hate us I guess. Probably couldn't find anything else better to motivate them. Might be a compliment that Payton might think of us as a real threat.

I'm guessing for familiarity. Kind of like piping in crowd noise and wearing the same uniform colors, just to keep things consistent. Being a former Cowboy staffer, Payton doesn't want to lose in Dallas more than he doesn't want to lose anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to pop up every couple years that he has ties to coming back. Probably all BS though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link to back that up? The big thing about Watt though is that he fit the Maranelli mold of a DE perfectly being both undersized and very quick off the edge. And in the Steelers defense he is a situational pass rusher much in the same way he would be in ours splitting time with Gregory who is doing very well.

I wanted Tyus Bowser but was overall underwhelmed but everyone. TJ Watt was the right choice there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember really liking Lawsons' size, school, and production but being turned off by his injury history. He basically only played as a freshman and his 4th year at Auburn. ACL and hip injury already and he was still a pup. But he did great his rookie year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBoys Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 This is kinda what our team would look like if I were in charge since 2010. Of course I never have the option to trade and some of my picks may have changed based on what I picked the year before. For instance, I wanted Zack Martin in 2014 but Idk if I'd still go that direction if I had taken Decastro in 2012 like I wanted. But Martin was BPA, and I wouldn't have Frederick so I probably would: 2010: Kyle Wilson CB (traded up for Dez Bryant) 2011: Tyron Smith OT 2012: David DeCastro OG (traded up for Morris Claiborne) 2013: Sharrif Floyd DT (Traded back for Travis Frederick) 2014: Zack Martin 2015: Malcolm Brown DT (selected Byron Jones) 2016: Ezekiel Elliott HB 2017: Tyus Bowser edge (selected Taco Charlton) 2018: Harold Landry DE (selected LVE) and I would have taken Evans over LVE if I were strong armed out of selecting a DE again which started to happen as the draft drew near.

WizardHawk Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Interesting. I'd have gone.... 2010 - Dez 2011 - Smith 2012 - Courtney Upshaw [eww] 2013 - Kawann Short 2014 - Martin . . .but I' also wonder if Bridgewater would have been too much to pass up. 2015 - Jones 2016 - Ramsey . . . David Johnson would have been 2nd rd in 2015. 2017 - Njoku 2018 - James Daniels . . . maybe DJ Moore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
