Around SBN: Four TCU Football Players Among 17 Arrested In Drug Ring

Dallas Cowboys 2009 Draft: Open Thread II

4:56 CT -- we're at pick 17.  Good pace, with teams using only around seven and a half minutes per pick.  Now that we're past the big trade-speculation zones, I think the pace will pick up even more.

New open thread for the 2009 NFL draft - starting with pick #17 in the first round.

Continue threading.

Robiskie is becoming very realistic now.

They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time it works, every time.

Robiskie

Robiskie would be a good pick for the Boys. he won’t be a star but he’ll be a reliable 2

Aren’t we past the top of the first?

TB had to jump denver for Freeman...

they’ve got some brass selecting him at this spot…(if they do)

He's the next best QB

Reach or not, they had to get past the Broncos. I bet they could have had Brady Quinn for less

okay,

now, we’re approaching the zone where Dallas players of interest are going to be called. English was the first.

But it’s a zero-sum game. Who’s falling?

Oher and Maclin, so far.

by Rafael Vela on Apr 25, 2009 5:00 PM CDT reply actions  

Where would English play on the Boys?

Behind Ware or behind Spencer. Don’t we still have Ellis? I don’t think OLB was an option at 51

Freeman

What exactly did he do against the great defenses of the Big 12?

by TK19 on Apr 25, 2009 5:01 PM CDT up reply actions  

They needed a QB, they reached for a prospect

He might become something in time, but I would try hard to trade with the Bucs because they will most likely suck near term

Man...

I think Freeman is a good dude, but thats such a reach IMO.

What does that old silly draft chart say about that

by Blammo on Apr 25, 2009 5:02 PM CDT reply actions  

I don't have it memorized but it's only two mid-round spots

It cost them a potential player, but makes room for a UFA and they get the QB they wanted

the first round grades are running out

which means we’re going to see a lot of surprising picks in the next dozen or so.

cause draft boards tend to diverge when you get into the second round.

all the mocks are going to look like goulash in the next hour or so.

Schwartz is a former scout

and from what I heard he’s not a dummy.

Pettegrew was probably the highest player on Det’s board at that spot.

They need players, lots of them. With their talent level, who cares where they get players, so long as they’re good ones.

No, this happens

Flozell was in the books at around 14-15 in’ 98 and slid to the early 2nd.

You know, I heard from somebody who worked with the Eagles that

they did not believe in taking WRs in the 1st. The only time they’re broken that rule
in the Reid/Banner era they got Freddie Mitchell.

Here’s hoping…

by Rafael Vela on Apr 25, 2009 5:32 PM CDT reply actions  

To me thats the most surprising pick of the draft

You can understand every other one. Crazy Al and DHB is probably the worst pick. But the most wild one off the radar is Mackin to the Eagles.

by Ridgelake on Apr 25, 2009 5:33 PM CDT up reply actions  

Oher

Good value.. lots of people had Rey M. from USC going to Baltimore.. does Jerry get antsy if Rey falls into the 2nd?

by TK19 on Apr 25, 2009 5:37 PM CDT up reply actions  

I think he trades up into the early 2nd

he said he didn’t want a first round pick because of the salary difficulties this year (different rules before an uncapped year.)

I’ll bet if a guy with a 1st round grade is on the board at 33, they start making some calls.

by Johnny Cage on Apr 25, 2009 5:39 PM CDT reply actions  

Mauluaga maybe,

cause he would fit a Dallas need.

right now, looking at Gosselin’s board, Vontae Davis and Beanie Wells are the droppers.

Mauluaga is a compositie 25, which means he may have one of Dallas’ last #1s.

GB - Pat trade

why is it whenever the Pats make a trade they seem to get more than any other team can? there’s a conspiracy theory somewhere there

WR's

DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, Hakeem Nicks… think the Cowboys should get a safety who can cover?

Yep

Not like they don’t need to be good anyways.

So at what pick do you start trying to move up,

And grab Sean Smith or Connor Barwin?

That seems reasonable,

I think you have to get in front of New England’s second rounder if you want your pick of the two.

Trade Up

Do you really like those guys so much that you’re willing to give up extra draft picks for them?

by TK19 on Apr 25, 2009 6:15 PM CDT up reply actions  

Yeah, especially Smith

We have 11 picks in this draft. We won’t draft 11 guys. If you can give up one or two of those late rounders to get in position for Sean Smith, I think you do it.

no way

how many first rounder rb’s are they going to pick?

by AirforceBat on Apr 25, 2009 6:15 PM CDT up reply actions  

maybe

ten traded to someone who is picking up beanie

by CowboysFan4Life on Apr 25, 2009 6:16 PM CDT up reply actions  

Wells

cause they’re going to trade White for a WR, either Boldin or Edwards?

by TK19 on Apr 25, 2009 6:16 PM CDT up reply actions  

it would be LenDale and a third rounder I would think.

Neither do I

I dont think theres a lot of historically good talent in the first round

by Sean N on Apr 25, 2009 6:23 PM CDT up reply actions  

NE is being smart

I like the 2nd, 3rd and even 4th round talent.

This draft lacks firepower at the top but is deep.

That’s why I don’t want Dallas moving up. Keep all your picks in those rounds.

maybe

but as you can see, this board is getting impatient…

And that ends my first round commish duties announcing the picks. I’ll keep the open threads going. Wow, on to the second round. We’ll finally get a pick.

Note from dallascowboys.com
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones just did an interview with the NFL Network, and stopped by to talk to local reporters afterward, hinting that the way the draft is following, the Cowboys could trade up.

Whisky Wade Needs to Go

When are you all going to understand that this team needs an overhaul? Every year we have the most talented roster and we just don’t get the mileage out of our star, overpaid players. Phillips is not the answer. Tony Romo is regressing under his and Garrett’s “tutleage”. Phillips should have to pay for his seat, cause all he’s doing is spectating. Those last 5 games of the year should be nice for the Cowpokes. Another late season swoon is on the horizon. Jerry Jones is becoming the next Al Davis. The star needs to be rescued. Who will it be?? I’m done with this!!!!
