Just so y'all know - DeCastro is horrendous

[ZeroClub]

I don't think he wrecked his ACL did he? He ended up playing last yr and starting 3 or 4 games didn't he?

I checked a little deeper (in the web) in response to your question.

Reports were that he had a torn MCL, a dislocated kneecap, and a partially torn patellar tendon. There were conflicting reports about the ACL. He did come back though, so that would suggest that the ACL wasn't wrecked.

In any event, he did have a significant knee injury.

And just because he got hurt as a Steeler doesn't mean that he'd have gotten hurt as a Cowboy.

Oh there is no doubt about that.

By the way. Decastro has been playing at an All Pro level this year

How can you say that when we have awesome talents like Bernadeau and Arkin (now back on PS!!!!)

 

[Hoofbite]

PFF has him as their #3 rated OG. For whatever that may be worth to people.

 

[Future585]

He's better than he looks tonight, and, he's basically still a rookie after the injury. He's going to be a good player.

 

[jnday]

He made the mid-season All-Pro team. That is much better than the soft CB that is riding the bench in Dallas.

Yeah, I wanted DeCastro bad so Bob and GloryDays like to point how badly he sucks facts be damned.

Still think he's very solid and I thought he was as good a Guard I had seen in college. The very next year Jonathan Cooper made DeCastro look pedestrian on film.

I'd rather have Brockers and Wagner like we were going to do, plus Warford.

Zero buzzworthy factor. Fail.

3 very good starters vs mental midget CB and awesome third string TE? Jerry knows what he is doing.

Yep. Two very good starters beats one pedestrian starter.

I'll say this... in today's NFL, no team should be wasting 1st round picks on these positions: RBs, CBs, and TEs.

They are a dime-a-dozen. In fact, those positions can be made as third day picks.

I hate imagining as to how much different this team would be with the aforementioned players.


Everyone gave sbk shit over this, including me... but she was correct.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Can you imagine Wagner at MLB and Sean Lee on the weakside? *chills*

cmd was right about DeCastro, dead wrong about Tyrone Smith.

How so? Tyron is a cornerstone starter for us.

Also, no mention of your pre-draft love for Gavin Escobar?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Cornerstone of average.

What is Escobar then?

A rookie being misused by two of the most unimaginative playcallers coaching in the game today.

Well, that is probably partially true. Not very Jimmy Graham-ish and a waste of a second round pick are also good answers.
