I really like one thing about the Shemar James pick: Matt Eberflus has been able to develop day-three linebackers like Anthony Hitchens. If he wanted this guy, then sign me up.#DallasCowboys

Shemar James pick is sneaky.

Down hill player, don’t love him in coverage but he’s very physical

Shemar James is the 3rd to be taken in the 2025 NFL Draft. I think Cowboys see his value as a LB but also the ability to cover kicks on special teams. He had an impressive Pro Day.@GatorsFB pic.twitter.com/cUsAurZrB3

This is what I’m saying. It sounds like Shemar James was someone Matt Eberflus circled as one of “his guys.”

Shemar James might have THE most nonchalant post for getting selected in the NFL Draft of all time
