Panthers on Cowboys Board

So they had Star ranked third best DT?

 

They did, but they ONLY ranked players they knew they wanted on their team.

Due to the players they already have and their switch to a 4 -3, Star is the only pure NT listed, the other DTs are stronger UT.

I actually find this quite interesting. Everyone gave them crap for the Center pick (myself included), but they actually had Frederick listed as a second round pick. The problem was that all 18 of their first round graded guys went ahead of them (as well as some 2nd round grades) and Frederick was the BPA on their board.

 

Though what's odd is that they didn't follow this strategy throughout, since after Frederick Terrance Williams was their next highest ranked player and he was there at their second pick, but they passed on him for Escobar (though they did still end up with Williams in the 3rd). They also let Barkley and Nassib slide to the 4th despite having 2nd round grades on them.

 

I understand it's situational, but why even rank guys so high if you're not gonna draft them when their available for your next two picks? Instead they took J.J. Wilcox, whom they only had a 3rd round grade for. It makes sense for them to amend the BPA philosophy and not take a QB in the 2nd or 3rd, but why not do that in the first as well and not take a center?  :lol:

The real strange thing is they had Floyd as a top 5 guy and they had him sitting there at 18 but they traded down to get the center... Talk about sticking to your board lol

Yeah I didn't even think about them trading down. So they were sitting at 18 and had exactly 18 guys ranked as first rounders, so they would get one of their first round guys regardless (would've have the option of Floyd, Rhodes, Patterson, Eifert, and Werner). Basically they planned their entire board (well, the first round) around their 18th pick...I'm thinking you should consider other options (a la, a trade down) when filling out these things, but that's just me.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
