STOP IT!!! The WR situation is fine. NO WR in 1st 3 ROUNDS

If Jerry lets Roy Williams go its admitting he failed and he will never do that. So, no matter who they pick the first few rounds, they arent going to start over Roy Williams. Please stop, its just not going to happen as much as you might want it to.

ElFURIOSO – Are you suggesting Earl Thomas will be available in the 2nd round???? If so, you need to follow the draft better.

Or if you are saying these are candidates for our first round pick, then are you suggesting we draft Ciron Black in the first round???? That’s just as crazy!

in the first round, let alone the second.

Do your homework, brah.

However, I do agree with your premise about not selecting a WR in the first 3 rounds.

Im not suggesting cutting RW, but we need an injection of more speed at WR who can also serve as a PR. Crayton is servicable, but nothing more than a #3 or #4 WR at this point…..Hurd is gone, Ogletree is still an unknown. Nothing wrong with getting another weapon on offense to compete with Ogletree. Jerry wants the SB in his house next season in the worst way so don’t be surprised if gets himself more playmakers on the offensive side of the ball this year.

I too find the criticism of Roy a little overboard. The crime is that he is paid as a #1 receiver and he appears to perform as a #2. He still represents a threat. WR is farther down the needs list than Oline, Oline again, safety, punt returner, kick returner, and NT, in terms of overall performance and injury insurance. As with any position, if there is a high upside candidate available at receiver where the Cowboys pick in the first 3 rounds, take them. IMO, any prospect you take in the first 3-4 rounds need to have starting level potential.

As for your mock, in no way would I endorse taking Ciron Black. He has guard written all over him and I would not put a large bet on him evolving into a quality starter.

the wr situation is FINE… fine to the matter that we have more important positions to upgrade through the draft….

the only wr i would take would be a slash type that could return punts/kicks….AFTER the 3rd round

with miles austin and roy williams (i can live with the fact that he MIGHT, just MIGHT want to focus on his game this summer after getting shown up big time) and patrick crayton and the thought of what ogletree can be…. im fine with the WR position (not to mention we have the best TE and some pretty good backup te’s

what we need to focus on and upgrade/getdepth at is…
1. OL across the board
2. OL across the board
3. DL
4. CB/S

i’d like to see an early OL who could logically push for a starting position (maybe not win right away, but at least push our old heads to the limit)

next maybe another OL who might be able to push, with a lot of upside

before the 3rd round ends, i’d like to see a CB picked

what is really exciting about this draft, is that we already have 2 or 3 picks from last year that didn’t get to play or didn’t get enough practice to play…. jason williams, stephen hodge, brandon williams, victor butler all with a summer of the weight program and learning under their belt… that excites me more than watching the super bowl or the draft this year

Forget the fact that until Austin broke out there was a legit threat at WR on the field, because Roy is such a great blocker!!!

Oh and good luck getting Earl Thomas with a late second rounder. LOL!

I don’t think we need a guy to come in and dominate as a #2 or #1 WR. What we do need is a guy who can upgrade our slot play and offer some game-breaking ability in the punt and kickoff return games. To find a guy with the necessary abilities (good-great speed, great agility, good-great acceleration), you are going to have to probably draft a guy with one of our higher picks (4th round or sooner).

and if Earl Thomas fall to us on second i thin i will wet my pants ha, but well, the point is the one about the receiver and i’m totally with you, and i think roy will be better (and i hope it), he had a 1000 yard season, Bill Walsh used to say soemthing like: if he do it before, then can do it again, i’m not saying he is gonna explode, but maybe he’ll offer us a good season as a 2 receiver

If it just so happens to be a receiver like Golden Tateand there isn’t an O lineman of equal value, that’s who it is.

I agree O line is our most pressing concern, but we do have Free, and maybe we have a couple of other players capable of stepping in that are already on the roster. We’re not desperate enough to reach for anybody, imho.
