I'm no apologist for Jerry and company. Far from it, but I said earlier don't sleep on Smith. I remember fans screaming when a center from Wisconsin was drafted as well. Everyone needs to wait until they see him in pads. I remember fans screaming when Taco Charlton was drafted over TJ Watt and they turned out to be right.

Everyone needs to wait until they see him in pads. I like the idea of an insanely athletic guy (which he is) who plays in a permanent state of pissed (which he does). The challenge there is that it can make the player a penalty magnet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They traded back and got Frederick so a lot of fans understood. This feels more like a Taco pick. Everyone has been trading left and right, but Dallas sits there at #24 and overdrafts Tyler Smith.

I think some folks need some decaf. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Smith will win over the fans. He is not soft that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much easier to sign or draft a good guard in rounds 2-3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every team under the sun misses on draft picks. This front office and scouting department has easily been one of the better ones in NFL at hitting. I’m going to confidently give them the benefit here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a huge reach but yes not the BPA left. (Johnson or Dean) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nextyearfordaboyz Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Hoping for a WR. But I expect Sam Williams to be the pick at #56, which I would also be happy with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do so many of you know that Tyler Smith was not the BPA? I'm sure like every year their pick was by far the bpa. They will also say they tried to move up to 15 to take him, but couldn't get a deal done. Let me also guess. Whoever we get in the 2nd they will have had a 1st round grade on. Nothing but truth coming from this front office. Edited April 29, 2022 by SweetFancyMoses 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
