and trades up to number 40 and selects Connor Barwin.

He is very reminiscent of Mike Vrabel, only more athletic. He is a shade under 6’4 and is 256 lbs. He runs his 40 somewhere in the 4.5’s; he has a 401/2 inch vertical; 10’08 broad jump; and a 6.87 three cone. Pretty amazing for someone of his size. Actually it’s pretty amazing for someone of any size to be exact.

I see him as a ILB on 1st and 2nd down, and as an edge rusher on 3rd downs. Plus he can also play TE, so Garrett can also use him in certain packages. He is very intriguing to say the least.

i think they will take a WR. I’m thinking they will try to trade up for Nicks, if not, stay where they are and draft Barden.

Also, there is a good possibility Dallas thinks this draft sucks, as do i, and they will start trading some of their picks for next year’s picks (and i’m inclined to want that to happen)…

I’’d say the heck with it and Draft Lawrence Sidbury Jr. at 51, Then get McBath in the 3rd. That’s just me. I want us to turn up the heat on all quarterbacks, and I want a coverage safety, not a SS with the 51st pick. We can get good SS later in the draft if we want. but the best coverage safety for our scheme would be McBath. I hope and pray we do not pick Chung or Delmas. We need to build this team, so we have to make every pick count.

here ye here ye, Smitty is breaking his self-imposed silence since we got our asses handed to us in a most gruesome fashion in Philadelphia. I’ve kept an open mind, and tried to neither be too high nor low, and just focus on what we can get for what we actually have….

Points to consider
1. No way we use 11 picks, the hit against the cap for cut rookies makes keeping 11 highly unlikely

2. This is a weak draft, only about a dozen or 15 real impact players

3. We don’t need 1st Round money to worry about

4. Next years Draft will be huge for a variety of reasons
    a.deep talent rich draft class
    b. no cap

The thing to do is play it safe in this draft. that’s not the sexy answer, it will make no one happy that thinks were gonna find the next Darren Woodson or Cliff Harris in this draft.

This means there is almost no way to screw this up, we can go a lot of different directions. My gut says go for a NT, Ron Brace; he’s someone that can split time with Ratliff and learn his craft at this level from someone that is great himself. I believe there are plenty of opportunities to get a quality safety pick by packaging some lower picks to either move up to get Delmas (if the opportunity arises), or into next year’s draft. If we take 6 or seven rookies to camp we can possibly keep them all.

I think banking on finding the perfect safety in this draft will lead to disappointment. Anyhow that’s my two cents. We can use almost anything, I also like that James Casey, he’s versatile…

I don’t care who they take first as long as they get some some ol guys or we’re screwed…we have no depth at offensive line.

Nice pick Carl. I think he’s the best all round Safety in the draft and would be happy with the pick. There’s plenty of people who don’t like him and you’ll probably get plenty of complaints but I’ve been sold on this guy for several weeks. Good value, great need = Right Pick.

So I would say I am happy with anyone but him, just my opinio,n and it has nothing to do with Lynch, but just to drive m point home it looks like he has some roy willimas in him with a close horse collar……….

I’d like to see them select… Ron Brace. I’m sure you’ve seen my other posts about how important I think NT is compared to the other positions so… that’s my pick!

The kid was a surefire first-rounder a year ago. One bad year, hampered by injuries, and he’s dropped significantly. This is a steal waiting to happen.

I see only one mention of O lineman with our 1st pick. Unless of course, we all like having Proctor and Holland as our only depth. Now I am warming up to Chung. But if Unger is there for us, that would be the pick. He plays all line positions for cryin out loud. Looks like great value to me.

or some other receiver that falls from the first round into our laps @ #51. Get safety Rashad Johnson next

I’m guessing the Cowboys pull a surprise and we’re all wrong!

I know Safety is a huge need, as is O-Line depth, but I gotta say … I’m hoping it’s Robiskie at #51.

From previous years, obviously not every team uses their time. They’ll do a little song and dance for the first pick, the second is likely already a given… etc… many teams know how they will move based on various top 15 scenarios.

Bottom line – what is the over/under on when the Cowboys are on the clock?

The Cowboys have given the indication they’d be willing to part with veterens to find rookies who can contribute, so we could see a veteren, likely with a big contract, traded today or tomorrow. The point would be more to unload salary than move up. But a point will come when they DO want to move up to get someone, and look for a verteren to be gone at that point. As for the pick, I don’t know who, but I’m guessing OT. Maybe Jamon Meredith.

Delmas is a player, I don’t care how many times he benches 225, absolutely irrelevant, the kid can play and and at a high level and thats all that matters.

But I think the fact that they don’t pick until 51 is maddening to try and guess. I agree with many that it will be Safety or O Line. I really don’t think WR should be a priority high in the draft.

What I read on Chung reminded me of thong so I’m not thrilled about that pick. I’d rather see get Pegues or McBath at safety. Then go for Oline in the 3rd.

I’d like the Cowboys to select Phil Loadholt, if he’s there. We’ve missed too many times over the years with o-line picks, and paid for it dearly by being forced to sign higher priced free agents. He’s projected as a right tackle, and while some would say left tackle is our greater need — and I would agree with that — the bottom line is we need to draft good young players on the line.

Loadholt fits that bill, and may even bring some versatility (tackle or guard?).

That’s my pick, since that’s the point of the post. With that being said, I hope we take the best player available.

They’ll take either Delmas, Chung or Moore. I’m betting on Chung.

The second day will be a trade frenzy.

Total domination !!!!!

Last year we had A. Henry play a sort of Star role, this time around we get a younger, faster and more ballhawking version of him to play it. He will play FS and some corner w/ Hamlin moving over to the SS position
