Give us hell, Skip


Bayless needs to read more notes.

Keionte Scott really isnt a CB, he's more of a safety/nickel back. He was dinged by many teams because he doesnt truly have the man cover skills to play outside at CB by himself.

Is exceptional at most other parts of being a DB and can do many things, but he'll be used pretty similar to how we'll be using Caleb Downs. We also signed Jalen Thompson, who like Downs can be used all over.

So the draft is over and now we get to hurry up and wait for the 2026 season. Hopefully GP will come to work with a smile on his face and NOT create drama. In addition DaRon Bland and all other injured players will be fully ready to go by training camp. No stupid off season stuff like Marquees Bell pulled. We need 100% focus and commitment by players and coaches to win the NFC East and make a run in the playoffs. With this overhauled defense it is imperative to get working now with installation. Nothing less than a solid competitive playoff run will be acceptable for 2026. The time is NOW. No more excuses!

Certainly sounds like Adams and Riley had been targeting Shelton all along and must have told him they were going to make an effort to get him.

Dane Brugler rates his favorite drafts. Browns-Giants-Raiders were 1-2-3. We come in at 4. Jets rounded out top-5



Favorite pick: Caleb Downs, S, Ohio State

A top-five player on my board, Downs is a culture changer and the perfect player to usher in Dallas’ new Christian Parker-led defense. Downs’ play speed, processing and tackling ability are all well above average, and his nickel versatility (both physically and mentally) will make him a difference-maker — especially in a Vic Fangio-inspired scheme.

Day 3 pick who could surprise: LT Overton, edge, Alabama

Five of Dallas’ first six picks were spent on defense. Though Overton failed to live up to the early-round hype he had entering the season, he is a toolsy big man with gap-sound principles and long arms to own the point of attack.

Judging by this we dodged another bullet. Supposedly we spent a lot of time looking at him.

Broaddus got this one right too though in saying he didnt think Dallas would take him in any round.
