Brandon Jones of the Dallas Morning News recalled an exchange between Assistant Director of Player Personnel Tom Ciskowski and Chief Operating Officer, Executive Vice President, and Director of Player Personnel Stephen Jones during the team's live feed of the "war room" during the first round.
[Head coach Jason] Garrett, at one point, had a blank look across his face as he started rubbing his forehead with his hand. Ciskowski and Stephen Jones also had an animated exchange. It was a rare show of emotion by Ciskowski.
“This was a draft where those moving back weren’t getting near what they should have,” the younger Jones later said. “It’s a real debate about what is more valuable, one player or two players. What you have to come to grips with is the guy you pick at No. 31 and the one you get at No. 74 a better deal than what we would have picked at No 18?”
Good draft so far from the Eagles. First Lane Johnson and now Zach Ertz.
I was surprised that Ertz wasnt picked late in round one last night. I only got to catch 3 Stanford games this year but he was eye-catching in all three of them
Christine Michael: Typical Pete Carroll project...maybe the best RB overall in draft, but character issues at Texas A&M dropped him. SEA got a 5th and 6th rounder for dropping a few spots to 60th.
So Tyrann Mathieu goes high in 3rd round to Arizona.
