His accuracy, vision and processing skills are considered “genius level,” and yet he also had more than 3 seconds in the pocket last season. He’s a natural passer but has average to slightly above-average arm strength. And he’s a winner who excelled at one of the top programs in the nation, but Alabama’s Bryce Young … More »

Bijan Robinson-to-Dallas is all but a foregone conclusion, both nationally and locally. The talk goes something like this: “You shouldn’t take a running back in the first round.

Let’s do a “this just makes sense” mock draft. What does that entail? Maybe a pick is made because it’s an obvious team need. Or maybe it’s because a player has extensive meetings with a respective team. Some picks will be made due to the team’s past tendencies. History and even family ties will play … More »
