It seems to me whenever there is a white guy at running back, wide receiver, or cb, they’re always one of the best in the league at their position.

Which tells me the only reason they got a shot is because their talent is undeniable.

There seems to be no mediocre white players at these positions, which tells me not enough white players are being given a chance.

Also a White American was drafted before a black American in the NBA draft for the first time in 20+ years. And it may happen two years in a row. We back!

They both remind me very much of Christian McCaffery, except for them being CBs.

I finally feel like I'm proud to watch American football. Someone who looks like me. Finally. I was ashamed of the NFL until now.

Picked my son up yesterday from school and there were some boys playing football. One of them broke up a pass and yelled "Riley Moss". #impactbeyondthegame

Moss is white , but not sure on Dejean. He looks like he could be Hispanic or middle eastern

Look, it either counts for everything, or it counts for nothing.

I got to meet John Mangum l I was growing up. Our dads grew up together and were friends from back in Mississippi .
He played at Alabama and with the Chicago Bears. He gave me a few pointers but unfortunately my lack of speed and athletic ability kept me from following the same path.

A lot of good white players don't get drafted because of the stereotypes.

Riley Moss was a two star recruit and before Iowa offered at the last minute, he had zero D1 offers. He was an awesome CB for Iowa and so was DeJean. I would say Iowa had the best CB tandem in college football and they were both white and most people wouldn’t believe me and I still believe that was true at the time. They locked teams down.

Dejean, Cooper only got a chance because his name sounds urban when you start with the last name.
