Just the beginning. I would love to eat crow on this pick.

Fantastic college tape -- and just carried on against Denver.

Dudes going to be a beast

Frank Clark, DE, Seattle Seahawks

Off-field issues aside, Clark can play, and he showed up in all facets of Seattle’s game versus Denver to produce a +6.9 grade overall. He defeated every type of block thrown at him in the running game to grade at +5.6, to go with a hit and two hurries. He even tracked down a screen from behind.

Well that sucks

This week at KC will tell us if he is consistently good. If so......opposing teams will start peeing in their pants!

What's that saying?..

The rich get richer?

FYI, he sat out the last couple practices with the ankle injury. Not sure how much they will want him to play on Friday.

Frankie says "relax." As much as I love the Hawks, even most of our fans would resist the temptation to engage in preseason hype.

I'm sure Lockett wasn't far behind him. :th2thumbs:

seanoob · Aug 19, 2015

He really stood out in last week's game. I hope the great play continues.

Still kinda jealous the Cowboys got La'el Collins(and Greg Hardy) for free. They also lucked out with Randy Gregory falling to them. They're going to be a scary team.

He didn't do anything as a WR, playing just ten snaps, but he was the highest rated returner (+2.4 overall, +1.5 on kickoffs, +0.9 on punts).

I'm going to be pulling for him to be "D" rookie of the year.
Imagine how things will end up IF, he pulls that off.

I expect to hear a lot of this type of stuff going forward. Kid was just awe inspiring last week. Even with the bum ankle!

Greg Hardy probably cost them a good comp pick, and a contract that could theoretically go as high as $11 million for one year. Gregory might have a good career, but it seemed to me that he was hyped a lot more in the media than he was by NFL front offices.

That said, I do think it was pretty smart of Dallas to take advantage of a market inefficiency created by twitter outrage. I guess that is one of the few advantages of having an owner/GM, Jerry Jones doesn't have to answer to anyone higher in the organization, so he can easily make moves that for a normal GM would require Balls of Steel.

As far as Dallas being a good team, I think they have to prove that their running game can still be elite without Murray. And I think the collection of spare parts they have at RB right now probably isn't good enough for that. Their defense also massively overachieved last year, and for most teams, defensive performances tends to be highly inconsistent from year to year, kind of like bullpens in baseball.
