Martellus is a Cowboy! I kinda like it. With some added weight and some coaching, he could be a monster lining up with Witten in two TE sets.
Maybe it's not as questionable as I originally thought. A lot of pundits seem to really like this pick and feel his production in college was limited by the aggie offense.
I hated Dat Nguyen, until he put on the Star. I can do it again. Of course, my displeasure with Dat was because he was so damn good, so it is a little different.
I'm a Viking fan, so I can go on disliking Bennett. I had to change my opinions on Adrian Peterson- he's been forgiven for his mistake. He paid by not getting his national championship ring, now he's free to build on his rookie season
I am a longtime Cowboy fan, but I don't have to like or cheer for MB just because he was drafted and will now be wearing a star on his helmet. He first has to make the team and show he can and will contribute - we'll go from there....
How can you not like Bennet on his ridiculous quotes alone. I've always thought he was about the most underutilized talent in the NCAA and I hope he proves that with the cowboys. I agree he cost himself millions not coming to Texas and I love it.
Maybe I'm in the minority but I really like Martellus. If he was a horn he would be revered for his quote making prowess. It's funny to me that he went to A&M a buttoned down place and one that wasn't going to showcase his skills. Just a bizzare decision all the way around imo. I hate the cowboys so he'll once again be on a team I dislike. That's ok- I can still appreciate his wit and wisdom and still laugh at his sometimes stone-like hands.
LOL WuLaw, funny stuff. Somebody please photo shop that pic with Romo and Simpson by the pool right before their playoff loss. I want to see MB instead of Jason and feel free to insert Pacman somewhere as well.
Bennett is another player who I would have loved to see with a horn on his helmet but now that he is no longer aggy, you can only wish the kid the best. Shoot once Tommie Harris left the land thieves and joined the Bears I was able to cheer for him all the while still muttering the mantra but OU still sux. You cheer for the team usuaully not the players. I am a Bears fan and whoever puts on the jersey I will be cheering for them.
If Holla put as much time into making plays on the field as he did with his quotes, then his brick hands would have become $$$!
Kiper said Tellus couldn't block. This shows how much attention Kiper pays outside of the top 20 players. Bennett was one of the best run blocking tight ends in the NCAA. His blocking technique is excellent, but maybe he needs more strength for the NFL. He has the frame, and the Boys made a solid choice.
he blocked for an option team, maybe that has something to do with it....I am not backing Kiper in anyway, but maybe he looked at it that way...who knows, the only guy i hate worse is M.Hodge.
Jerrah is putting together one of the most poisonous teams in the history of sports. Tellus is a locker room cancer. Between he, TO, and Pacman it's going to be difficult keeping the team together week to week.
One more good reason to hate the Cowboys. Love the pick! I was afraid they would take Limus so I'm more than relieved that they picked up a Pig and an Aggot instead.
Cowboys are getting a lot of trouble makers on one team. I heard Gil Brandt talking on radio about how good Calvin Hill is working with young or old troubled players. Well, ole Calvin should get a raise this year if he keeps all of this **** together!
