Gross, why did he have to go to the NFC east… 

Same here. My five least favorite teams are 1) Packers and 2-5) The NFC East.

Cowboys fan here too.....love it! Cowboys drafted another Tackle in the first round....so Matt may not be expected to play right away. Looking forward to seeing him in a Cowboys jersey! 

Jerry Jones says Matt can be their “swing tackle” and they are no longer looking to sign a veteran. Cowboys said they rated him a 4th round pick. Should be a good spot for him with time to develop.

Good for Evan! Hopefully he has a couple of good showings.

I think both will be fine. Fun to recognize names playing Sundays.

I'm still giggling (and head scratching) that UND + NDSU + SDSU had more picked in the draft than UF + FSU + Miami. 

I-29 > (I-10 + I-95)?

The sensitivity is real with you bizun guys......WOW!

For the record I hope both young men have long and prosperous careers.

To your comment, a simple scroll to the original comment comparing the two for absolutely no reason may provide some insight into where the real insecurity and sensitivity lies in this discussion.

2022 NFL Draft picked, by conference:

MVFC 8 --> NDSU 2, SDSU 2, UND 1, UNI 1, YSU 1, MoSt 1. 

That's more than each the MAC, the Sun Belt, and C-USA (6 each).

That is pretty crazy right there.  I should post that to my cousin who is a huge diehard UF fan who lives in Florida.

Correction: It should say "as many" ... it's 5 and 5 per Sporting News article.

I'll just leave this here.
It makes as much sense as the last couple pages of this thread.

The same plays every year, in the same predictable way, year after years after year. The top coaches in the state licked their chops when they saw Minot in the opponent column. Not hard when nothing changes in an offense.
