What do you think of the safety from Wahington St. ?
Antone Exum VT is probably the S Jerry is targeting. He's was injured last season and will probably miss some of 2014. He fits Jerry's Draft M.O. perfectly.
I'm hoping he looks at Lamarcus Joyner, Jimmie Ward and Marqueston Huff, although Huff may sneak into the first round after Pryor. Getting one of those guys after round one would be a fantastic pick IMO
I don't think we go S before the 3rd round. At least not when you read the tea leaves.
Buchanon could last to the third
Ward impresses me more than Dix or Pryor. Very good in coverage. Very instinctive. Someone brought up Bryant from OSU. He looks good to me. We need to get guys like Heath and Johnson off the roster
Heath was forced into action way sooner than he should have been and as bad as he looked he is not a bad player just way raw. Coming from a small school Saginaw valley state the jump to the NFL was a monster leap and he played hard even when he played bad he never quit. Like some big school linebacker did.
If Johnson cant stay healthy this year he is gone anyway
We will C
JMHO
I keep reading people and writers saying that, but I just didn't see an NFL player in him first year or not. I think they like the guy and don't want to say anything bad. Effort is great, but you need talent too. Still don't get why he played over Wilcox at the end of the year. Dumb decision by someone that may have cost us the playoffs. Wilcox you could see some skills. Yeah he looked clueless half the time and didn't seem to know his assignment, but he also made some plays that made you think there could be something there. His game against Philly was probably the best game any safety played for us last year. When I watch Heath it's times when he is right there and you either make a play or you don't and he didn't. There is no excuse of inexperience or learning the system when you are in position, the ball is there and you just don't know what the F to do or just can't do it. Also, don't know if it was lack of speed or instincts, but when the ball was in the air he was just friggin lost...
Agree on Johnson. He gets one more chance to earn a spot or he is gone.
Go with the youngster already on the roster & bring in a Veteran for insurance....
I agree, I think this team needs more than a safety. I also believe that Wilcox and Matt Johnson are good players. I saw both on scout tapes at Valley Ranch the years they were drafted and was like wow. If Matt can stay healthy he will start at some point during this season unless JJ has taken the next step, imo.
I think the Cowboys feel the same way. I would be surprised if a Safety is taken before the 5th rd. I will not mind if they don'twait until the 7th to take a flyer on one.
