2027 NFL Draft Preview: Trevor Lauck
Instinctive player with a natural feel for fit and hat placement.
Nice polish in man / gap schemes
Has a nasty streak and finishes plays
Snap Opposite is textbook
Great intangibles.
Iowa doesn’t ask much from its tackles in pass protection. Very little vertical sets or reps that translate to the next level.
Nothing in the athleticism department flys off the tape.
Overall he is my OT3 on my big board

The Andy Reid discourse on this app can really be summed up into this:
“You either Die a Hero or live long enough and become the villain”
Happens to every single long time successful head coach. Most recently it was
Bill Belicheck
Nick Saban
And now Andy Reid. The guy who likes cheeseburgers and winning football games is all of a sudden the poster child for morality in a world that doesn’t even agree on what that standard of morality is.

So Josh Sweat is a Detroit Lion got it
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says on @1053thefan that he doesn’t feel like they need to make a trade to keep up with other teams around the league. “It would have to be a dynamic situation to give up (draft) picks.”

Are we really going to sit here in the big 2026 and slander quarterbacks for playing better with a strong run game?
This is such an espn stat going “oh hey look at this specific situation without any context inside of a game and look it’ll fit my narrative”
Keep in mind this is coming from a guy who doesn’t even understand basic math.
Dan can you tell me what Dak Prescott career win percentage is?
Or are you still struggling on that concept?
Cowboys are 49-6 with Dak when the run it at least 50% of the time on early downs.

The Carolina Panthers will either win by 30 or lose by 30. Sorry I don’t make the rules.
The cruel gods of the NFC South do.

Always love an excuse to go watch Jeffrey Simmons tape. Dude is a freak.
I think the one thing we can all agree on is this move will make or break Ryan Poles Tenure as the bears GM.
The expectations for this roster now is Super Bowl or Bust. #DaBears
Jeffery Simmons Trade Thoughts:
This is the first time ever a DT has been traded for multiple firsts.
There are not enough superlatives to say about how great of a football player Jeffery Simmons is or the impact he has had in Nashville his entire career.
A stalwart in the middle of your defense who—despite chaos and down right non competitive football being played—still performed like a top 5 player.
And now in his Age 29 season:
38 TOT
6 TFLs
9 QB Hits
4 Sacks
Now that I have sung Jeffery Simmons praises….this is an AWFUL TRADE.
The Chicago bears window is now.
Caleb Williams is playing at that level.
So you’d think an all in move would make sense.
But two firsts for a soon to be 30 interior defender simply won’t have the immediate impact everyone will expect from that investment.
Jeffery Simmons is a floor raising kind of player.
But did the bears really raise their ceiling?

13 Days Until the NFL Trade Deadline.
Many “contending” teams will be looking to solve their hidden problems and push their chips in the middle.
While other teams will turn their eye to the future.
The moment of truth is upon us for the 2026 NFL season
And on this weeks episode of the warroom we analyze the why behind the decisions that will define the course for these franchises.

A friendly reminder that the Arizona Cardinals have managed to win the past 5 meetings against Dallas.
Also, in the Brian Schottenheimer Era the only time the Dallas Cowboys have ever won back to back games was last season against the Eagles and Chiefs to improve to 5-5-1

I just don’t think an Aaron Glenn coached football team sitting at 2-5 through 7 weeks can be looked at as a competitive team.
I sympathize with jets fans I really do.
Your GM has set this football team up with the opportunity to finally build a sustainable winner. But what is the best approach?
Personally I would be trading breece hall and starting Braelon Allen.
I would trade Garrett Wilson.
I would confirm the number one pick on my franchise QB.
And I would replenish the roster with cost controlled young talent and supplement in free agency.

Quenton Nelson Trade Thoughts:
The hall of fame guard is still at the peak of his powers.
And what he’s about to provide this Seahawks oline should have the entire NFC West scared

Literally everybody understands that John Dorsey built the dynasty in Kansas City.
Brett Veach is the biggest Larper in the league

Chris Ballard was an actual terrorist to the colts organization…
Traded what would be the WR1 on this team, Kenyon Saadiq and a Top 10 pick in 2027 for a 27 year old DB who is allowing a passer rating of 106.7 when targeted.
The Sauce Gardner trade Will go down as an all time bad trade.
But the colts 25-26 offseason should be looked at even more. Michael Pittman shipped out, Daniel jones paid, and drafted CJ Allen who has been a healthy scratch most weeks.
Dark days ahead for Indy
Just because a draft class doesn’t project 6 first round QBs does not mean it lacks talent.
2027 class is loaded
2027 NFL Draft True First Round Grades🔮
1. WR Jeremiah Smith
2. CB Leonard Moore
3. EDGE Dylan Stewart
4. EDGE Collin Simmons
5. QB Drew Mestemaker
6. OT Jordan Seaton
7. WR Charlie Becker
8. DT Will Echoles
9. LB Chris Cole
10. CB Ellis Robinson IV
11. OT Trevor Goosby
12. G Greg Johnson
13. RB Jaden Baugh
14. CB Ashton Hampton
15. WR Cam Coleman
16. EDGE Yhonzae Pierre
17. SAF KJ Bolden
18. TE Jamari Johnson
19. DT David Stone
20. OT Trevor Lauck
21. TE Trey’Dez Green
22. WR Nick Marsh
From a historical perspective draft classes average 12-15 true first round prospect graded by NFL talent evaluators. Problem is there are 32 teams with 32 picks.
This is the first class since 2023 that has at lease 20, which reflect the unwillingness of teams to part with 2027 firsts.

LB Demarvion Overshown provides the connective tissue in the middle of Christian Parker’s defense.
He made plays for the Dallas cowboys on all three levels
6 TOT
1 INT
1 TFL
1 PBU
33 yards allowed in coverage
The question is like it’s been all year involving the cowboys, can this become consistent? If so…. Dallas might win the NFC East
LB Demarvion Overshown has been all over the field and looks healthy.
His last healthy season in 2024 he looked like a top 10 inside linebacker.
Will be huge for the #DallasCowboys going forward if they get this level of play from him going forward

It’s often said it’s about the Jimmie’s and joes and not the X’s & O’s
But good coaching in the nfl is what
sets the floor for a great football team.
Great teams have both.
Bad teams it’s one or the other.
The most frustrating teams, are win they clearly have talent, clearly have good football players at key positions, but it’s coaching that holds the team back.
The 2026 #DallasCowboys are a case study on this.

So what is replay assist even do @NFL
What can and can’t we replay assist? When Vegas makes the call?
Would seem to me the most obvious thing would be replay assist obvious facemasks, but what do I know
