I can't begin to describe how disappointing this pick is. Jaylon Smith BETTER be healthy in 2017. Here we go again with the injury risks.

I wonder if this was a panic move after Ogbah and Dodd go off the board?

Clearly not about 2016, this is mind boggling

This had to be who we were going after. We wasted very little time running that card to the podium.

wow I like Jaylon Smith but just wow

in a post a week or two ago, I said I would be okay with Smith in the 3rd. But not at #34. Just crazy risk. Could have gotten a year one contributor - preferably a pass rusher. Now we probably draft a QB in the 3rd and the defense gets the scraps in the 4th - yet again.

No we wanted Ogbah according to Twitter. When Irvin announced the name- I immediately thought of the LSU CB.

This makes the pick of Elliott even more stupid!!! You draft a stude rb for next year and instead of drafting for defense next year, you take a guy that won't next year or ever!!!! That you could have got in round 4 or 5:doh:

When Murray was running for 1800, out defense was always fresh and played well. We have more defensive talent now than we did then. It's not a pick for today, but it could pay off, big time

I think Dallas is doing a great job accumulating talent but even if he's a stud, you only get 3 years of play before he's a FA.

What if Romo gets hurt again and you are a couple years away from grooming his replacement? If Tony's window is now, drafting for years to come is odd, if you are trying to put the best team on the field around him now

Let's look at both ways....if Room stats healthy, we are better than we were two years ago. If he goes down, we are picking in the top 10. The Cowboys tried to trade up for Lynch, they will either go QB in the 3rd or early next draft. With Zeke and put OL, and hopefully a superstar defender in Smith, a young QB might have a chance in 17, 18 and 19

If is the problem. Too many if's on this team.

I just think they are building a team for the future. I know I'm on the minority, but I like the direction

I don't like drafting for future years when we probably have a project or real young QB learning the NFL in those years. I draft for this year and next not 2018 after Smith has been off a football field for a year and a half

With a qb I'm on board for that. But one more injured player, one more bad knee? Too many of these. Jj loves this shit for some reason. No question he is a great player but will he be again? TBD.

I think that is exactly happened. I think it was mostly Ogbah by the way they were on the phones like crazy after they picked but probably they wanted either of the two. Looked like they must have been calling every team in the league. Caught with their pants down again...

Then we should get a QB to play with these future guys

There guy was Ogbah. How do you have 20 hours since last night and not have a plan B in place of your guy goes.

Completely ridiculous they had basically 2 picks in the 1st round and came away w nothing to help the defense knowing you have 2 guys suspended at least 4 games
