Boy, was I wrong about Leighton Vander Esch

[HammerOfTheDogs]

When the Cowboys picked Vander Esch over Calvin Ridley, I had to be called back off the edge of the building.

However, it turns out that Vander Esch may become the premiere Middle Linebacker in the NFC for the next decade. Has all the smarts of Sean Lee, but none of Lee's brittleness. Not only that, but he saved the Cowboy's season last week with a game-saving play against the Eagles, and a HUGE interception against the Falcons.

Turns out playing 8 man football helped him learn how to catch passes and run.

In coverage, it doesn’t get any better than Leighton.

Amari Cooper has made the Cowboys better

He's a First Round pick, who actually has experience in the League. Cooper is probably happy to be away from that Dumpster Fire in Oakland/Las Vegas, a team even more dysfunctional than Dallas.
