Stat of the day.

TEAMS ARE AVERAGING A PASSER RATING OF 38.9 WHEN TARGETING DIGGS. THEY’D LITERALLY HAVE A HIGHER RATING SPIKING THE BALL INTO THE TURF.
Diggs is playing like a top 5 pick instead of a 2nd round pick. I actually thought we would draft him in the 1st round that draft. I did not think he would fall out of the 1st round. He is another player where the 40 time is not the end all when it comes to evaluating a player. I think he developed much faster than I thought he would. 6 picks in 5 games is crazy. And he made these picks happen. No luck involved

Wilson is definitely capable of causing damage and is a solid #3 WR. But, he isn't in Gallup's class, which was my only point. But, it has been great to have Wilson filling in for sure and I have total confidence in him and so does the team. How many teams have a #4 WR as good as him? Heck, he might be the Eagles best WR...
There is just something about Wilson. I wrote him off after he got hurt rookie season. He just has a knack of getting separation and him and Dak just are on the same page. Very reliable with good hands. You are right very few #4 receivers produce like he does.

3 game leading heading into the bye :thumb:

I suppose Gallup, Anae and Armstrong will all be back after the bye. Maybe Joseph starts to get some snaps? Still a while for Tank. Can't wait to see the pass rush with everyone healthy. I think with the way Gregory is playing, if you have Tank on the opposite side and Micah shooting gaps it could be really interesting...

This is what I came up with for the top 20. Not how I think the draft will go because I think 5 QBs go in the top 9 picks, but more like a "Big Board" for me. Subject to change of course and all subjective and opinion based based on the games I saw (which certainly wasn't all of them) and some videos I watched and writeups I've seen. For me, the further you go down the more it becomes more like a group than a ranking and there were a couple more OL and Edge types I wanted to include but I couldn't really decide between them so I just left them off. They'd probably fill out most of my next 5:

1 Lawrence
2 Chase
3 Sewell
4 Pitts
5 Z Wilson
6 Parsons
7 Slater
8 Surtain
9 D Smith
10 Waddle
11 Barmore
12 Fields
13 Lance
14 M. Jones
15 Vera-Tucker
16 JOK
17 Horn
18 Darrisaw
19 Paye
20 Farley
some hits and some misses but not bad after 6 games

Dak just said he will be fine onCowboy OT
Let's hope he is. I have zero confidence that these backup qbs could even win one game even with this OL and all the weapons.. defenses would just blitz over and over. As Dak goes the Cowboys go. There is no quality backup on this team right now.

Totally agree and you know what's funny? I remember people laughing at Jerry for drafting Dak. The old guy won that time around.

I thought everyone was behind that move. Late 4th round?

Not everyone but keep in mind not all follow football as closely as you and I. To be clear I was not aiming at this board.

And all the laughing at Mr Gregory too.

So week 11, KC? Week 17 Arizona?

A while to wait I suppose but I'm looking forward to both those games.

Damn, when Tj Watt caused that fumble last night I was thinking of what this defense would look like with Gregory and Watt getting after the QB. Drafting Taco and Trysten Hill set this defense back big time. This is why hiring these older coaches like Marinelli and Nolan was a big mistake. These old coaches are set in their ways and want these players to be a perfect fit for their systems. We saw taco flame out and then we saw nolan keep Gregory on bench when he clearly was a better player than Aldon Smith.

Quinn on the other hand is adapting to the current NFL landscape. Quinn is adjusting the scheme to mesh with the players talents. Quinn is living up to the hype.

I remember Jerry trying to trade up for at least two QBs in that draft. Thankfully those other two teams offered too much. I am curious as to who pulled the trigger on using that comp pick on Dak?

It really goes to show you how wrong these draft experts and scouts can be.

Dak has clearly turned into the best QB out of that draft. Dak has continued to improve every season
