textaz03 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Per source, I’ve been told that Kentucky LB Trevin Wallace has a Top 30 visit with the #DallasCowboys in early April. At the NFL Combine, Wallace ran a 4.51 40, 3rd fastest among off ball linebackers, 37.5 vertical and 10’7 broad jump 2023: 80 tackles, 5.5 sacks, 8.5 TFL https://x.com/nhutchisontv/status/1767016690372517951?s=46&t=ktd6JTByZwOAf6VhdnN4wg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also would take JPJ. Latham, Morgan, and Barton, maybe too. But those guys fall into that same category as Guyton. All this to say, my current prediction is that Guyton falls to day 2.

textaz03 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Texas A&M linebacker Edgerrin Cooper is scheduled for a top-30 visit with the Dallas Cowboys in early April. One of the top linebackers in the country last season, Cooper met with the Cowboys at the Shrine Bowl and will now go more in-depth.

He won’t be there for our 2nd round pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Junior Colson will be, either. He has the traits everyone is hot on right now. That ball carrier hunting, traffic dodging, hit and wrap up tackling, prototypically sized football guy that can wear the green dot, spot the tendency and call the shots on the field. He is going to go a lot earlier than you see in a lot of these mocks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallas94Ware Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 (edited) On 3/28/2024 at 10:57 AM, TVScout said: Cool find but I think these stats have become a bit irrelevant in today's game. The days of defenses running primarily one style of coverage are as over as offenses running one primary style of attack. Defenses run a much wider combination of coverages now - there is really no more of that clear cut and easily named "Tampa 2", "zone blitz", "man coverage", or even outright 3-4 or 4-3 defenses anymore just as there are really no more clear cut and easily named "west coast offense", "zone running", "power blocking", "spread" offenses anymore. On offense and on defense, you need a heavy dose of concepts of all of those styles that were once their own thing. If you don't have it in your repertoire, the other teams coordinator will exploit that all game long. It's like an MMA fighter not knowing how to grapple or not being able to stand and box. Back in the day that was fine. But in modern times, that weakness will be so easily exploited by someone who may not be an expert in that area, but is at least well versed in it enough to make you regret not learning to do it back to them. I do kind of miss the days of west coast offense vs cover 2 defense, zone run offense vs 34 zone defense .... But coordinators and coaches in general have become so heavily influenced by more than one source nowadays, and have realized it is far easier and better for their unit to have the capability of running some of everything, so that they can't be taken advantage of for not being able to do it. So these corners today had better be able to stick with a guy in man, stay steadfast in zone, tackle well in a shallow area, or play for the ball deep down the field. The moment an offense realizes they can't do one as well as they do the others, they will throw it in that way in their direction over and over and over again Edited March 29 by Dallas94Ware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are probably other position guys I’d like over Guyton. The other 5, I’d take any of them right now and give up our first rounder.
