So…that’s something.
Cowboys third round pick Neville Gallimore was drafted for the second time in two weeks, going to the Saskatchewan Roughriders with their final pick in Thursday’s CFL draft. Gallimore is an Ontario native, and was rumored to be a top prospect in the CFL draft before America’s Team scooped him up.
Gallimore was the number one Canadian recruit out of high school in 2015 before heading to Oklahoma, later earning All Big-12 honors in his final collegiate season.
Of course, the Cowboys hope that Neville Gallimore will never play another snap in Canada, as he’ll work out in the NFL and end up being their starting defensive tackle down the line. But if the worse case scenario hits for Gallimore and the Cowboys, he’ll have a spot in Canada to play football.
Important to note that this does not impact Gallimore’s NFL eligibly whatsoever. He is still a Dallas Cowboy, and will be for the foreseeable future.
Good for Neville Gallimore earning a spot in two professional football leagues.
hello Kevin—— ya man…Neville has some serious “DOG” in him….that is what i like..for instance i read a lot of negative press about Dallas Cowboy CB “Jourdan Lewis”…..it actually upsets me when i read
the negative press on Lewis….he would be my first corner back on Cowboys cause he also has
serious “Dog” in him…..that is what i love about Ceedee Lamb too….no coach can teach a player
to have “Dog”…it has to come from inside….hence…Cowboys #1 pick in 2017 draft Taco Charlton
has little Dog in him at all…this is why he got cut by both cowboys and Dolphins….of course this is only
my humble opinion on the matter
I agree 100% J-Lew has that “no one gonna outplay me” attitude. He’s been getting screwed because he’s not ideal height for some coaches. Given the chance, which I hope he does this year can be a very good CB. He got thrown in the fire at CB as a rookie and I thought he did very well. And you know he got picked on being a rookie. But the guy constantly makes plays. Getting sacks and getting more picks than most others with half the snaps played. All cuz he’s a little shorter.
Why would they waste a draft pick? No way he’s gonna play in Canada
