1. OT Anthony Davis Rutgers
Although one of the most talented LT prospects in the draft, he has been suspended and benched during his time at Rutgers for violating team rules and has shown less than desirable passion for the game.
2. WR Mike Williams Syracuse
Has the makings to be a stud WR, but has serious maturity issues. He was suspended in 2008 for academic misconduct, and literally quit his team half way through the 2009 season.
3. RB LeGarrette Blount Oregon
He is a big and powerful back who could allow us to unload MB3's contract. Although he is also quite immature with a poor work ethic. He did himself no favors when he sucker punched a Boise State player.
4. OT Tony Washington Abilene Christian
He did something with his sister that you are not supposed to do with family members... you know what I mean. Barf!
6. (for some reason I can't find a bad boy safety in this draft, maybe someone in the comments section knows of one?)
7. NT Abe Koroma Western Illinois
Big powerful former PSU DT who transferred schools to Western Illinois after being caught red handed with happy grass.

I would love to get some of those guys, to be honest...
Especially Blount. Oh, and 1st
I'll live and die with number 9....
while Blount's talent is unquestionable
His character is also unquestionably not so good. I think his career goes the way of Marshawn Lynch’s if he gets the chance to be a lead back on a team. Also, if we drafted him, that would mean bye bye Marion Barber, don’t think that’s going to happen, but it could, who knows what Jerry will do. If he’s determined to keep Roy around for another year though, I’m pretty sure he’s keeping Marion.

People are going to be surprised
I think Anthony Davis is going to slide. He didn’t show up for his pro day to the ire of a lot of scouts. Even if prospects have a good combine, which Davis didn’t have, they usually still do position drills at their pro day. Davis didn’t even do that. He was a no show.

It will be interesting to see
since there are other good to great comparable tackles out there (i.e. Bulaga, Campbell, etc.) that will be competing to get drafted ahead of one another.
If I had a nickel for every Super Bowl the Eagles have won, I would have zero nickels.

I agree quincyyyyy. It really wouldn’t surprise me too much now if he fell to us, which would be great. I think if he’s there you have to take him no?

The only unloading of Barber's contract is if he is cut. No team will trade for a dinged up running back with a bloated contract

and personally, I think it’s less likely that Marion is cut than Roy being cut. If Jerry is going to keep Roy around, he’ll keep Marion around as well. Compared to Roy, Marion earns his keep and Marion’s always played football the right way.

True, MB3 may be dinged up and not performing the way he used to, but at least he knows the plays
Lifetime Cowboys Fan from the Swamps of Jersey
I like Mike Williams as a sleeper but
That seems like a real reach to take him in the 2nd round. He’s probably a classic boom or bust pick.
+1
I don’t think he gets drafted before the 4th. Too many character concerns and he didn’t exactly wow anybody with his workout at the combine (looked like he hadn’t been working out as much as he should have) raising more questions about his character. Personally, I wouldn’t mind taking a flyer on the guy, but IMO we shouldn’t do that before the 6th round.

I did not know that about Tony Washington, ugghhh
That’s like wrong, really wrong. I think I’d bring everyone else on this list on board before him no questions asked given this revelation. I like him as a prospect, but man that’s just like you said barf, bucket loads and bucket loads!!!!
Maybe he's from Arkansas?
The place where your mother and your sister are one in the same.
Only guy I really would like the Boys to draft on this list
would be Anthony Davis, I think as far as all the other guys go, where they are being drafted we can find similar players and/or similar value minus the character problems. JMO
I hoping the Cowboys red flag these guys
and stay away from them like the plague on draft day.

what most fans don't understand
is that no matter how good or talented a player is, he’s not worth having on the team if he is being suspended, violating teams rules and being a distraction to the team.

true

Yeah I'm sure you were complaining when they were helping the Cowboys win super bowls.
by houseofprime on Mar 12, 2010 11:32 AM CST up reply actions
Oh Yes I Did
During the first Bill Super Bowl, when Haley cam crashing through the line, and Kelly coughed up the ball for a TD, I jumped up from my couch, nachos and beer flying everywhere, shouting “BUT HALEY IS A MEAN GUY!”
Every single time the Playmaker made a tough catch to move the chains, and I do mean EVERY SINGLE TIME, I screamed “O FOUL DISTRACTION!! THOU VIOLATOR OF TEAM RULES! BE GONE! BE GONE!”
Uh, Prime, I was joking

Yeah I kinda figured you were after I posted.
Just a little testy today. That Roy Williams is one hell of a blocker isn’t he?

RW is the opposite of WR. Coincidence? I think not.

Dallas with no Deion … no Super Bowl.
Dallas with Deion violating team rules and providing a huge distration … SB XXX

We did win two Super Bowls before Deion.
But I still agree with your premise.

really bad example
Those 90s teams were the best ever, try using a more realistic example.
In Romo we Trust
Deon wasnt a distraction. He was well liked every place he played. A hard worker and good teamate.
KICK ASS every day!!!
That is not entirely true
Deion was so gifted that he did not work hard in practice, and he supposedly slept through team meetings
Lifetime Cowboys Fan from the Swamps of Jersey
Sleeping though team meetings is a rite of passage.LOL
I heard he worked hard when he needed to.( you can bet your ass he step up his game when Rice, Irvin, or Rison was lined up across from him in practice) I dont think he was a big weight room guy though.
I never heard any team bitch about Deon. Everyone has their distractors and guys they dont mesh with but he was well liked everywhere.
KICK ASS every day!!!
Troy and Moose have nothing good to say
about Deion off the field. I think he was a problem in the locker room. I’ve heard through the years it was a black and white thing with Deion.
More like it was a non-white thing with Troy
It’s pretty well known that he didn’t really get along with the black players on the team.
That is bull$h!t
Irvin refers to Troy as his “brother” for one. That was just a bogus story that Jackass Barry Switzer spread about Aikman
Lifetime Cowboys Fan from the Swamps of Jersey
John Blake was a trouble maker also.
He was Switzer’s boy. Switzer got him the Sooner HC job and Blake was total disaster. Jerry said he had to go after he made the statement that Troy jumped on black players more than the white players. When a reporter ask Irvin about it he said the team is 80% black, so yeah he probably does.
Yeah, that Aikman; what a douche.
Chastising a bust like Kevin Williams for still not understanding how to run the most rudimentary routes well into his 3rd year as a pro.
I bet Peyton Manning’s condescending tantrums which border on hissy fits are a lot more ill-received than Aikman’s scoldings of his teammates ever were. If you’ve ever watched the ‘06 Colts episode of America’s Game you’ll understand exactly what I’m talking about concerning Peyton.
Not everyone is going to like everyone.
Some of you guys need to lighten up on both sides. There is a difference between a young man who makes mistakes and is full of himself and a guy that puts himself before the team and is polarizing in the locker room.
One a dumb young man with too much money and ones a knucklehead.
Knuckleheads dont learn, dont apoligize and dont take blame. You cant rely on them and they suck down others with them.
KICK ASS every day!!!
I'm a pretty light dude...
but Deion was a douche.
I think he’s the best cover corner of all time, but I’ve never heard a good story about his work ethic.
He was just a freak of nature.

I always heard he spent alot of times with the younger guys helping then and even now.
Deon was also pretty technically sound. He was loud and overbearing but so was Irvin.
I think the core of the Cowboys who grew up together and won 2 SBs without him (and should have won a 3rd) had a certain amount of animosity towards him as a johnny come lately.
If I was Moose, Aikman, Woodson, ect… I would have a certain amount of “Hey MFer, we were kicking ass before you came along” mentality as well.
However he can be a douche and he carries no weight with me about anything he says. Marino, Easison, Sharp, ect.. are all douches too.
KICK ASS every day!!!
I'm not going to doubt his badassness...
but from the sounds of the books I’ve read, he rubbed off bad on younger DB’s.
The problem was that Deion could party all night every night and still be dominate, but most people in the NFL can’t do that.

Deion was so good that he could loaf in practice and get away with it; The younger guys who looked up to him were not as good and could not get away with it
Lifetime Cowboys Fan from the Swamps of Jersey
he was a freak without any doubt; I saw him return a TD against the Redskins in Texas Stadium and I swear I have never seen a human being move as fast he did on that return
Lifetime Cowboys Fan from the Swamps of Jersey
Deion was a real sh*t disturber.
But when you can take away one side of the field the way Deion did it affords you the luxury of being a real sh*t disturber.
agreed..not a fan of Washington...
or alot of these players on the list. Davis is not a first round OT..

Don't be so sure we don't draft Washington
Jerry is from Arkansas after all ;)

You just do not like OL
I think you’ve predicted Bruce Campbell, Iupati, Pouncey, and now Davis are all unworthy of 1st rd picks.
to make the jump to the next level, Odrick said today he needs to work on one area. "Just being more violent overall,'' Odrick said. "Play the game and play it right, violently.''
by APerfectStar on Mar 13, 2010 4:55 PM CST up reply actions
You are correct sir. Guards and Centers are traditionally not first round selections.
Lupati is the only player on that list I would consider a first round pick, but thats only because he is the best of the Guard out there. Pouncey, Davis and Campbell are definteley not first round picks IMO, but a team may reach in the first round because they are desperate. Hopefully, Jerry doesnt reach for any of them.
Campbell is awful…go watch some Maryland tape and tell me he is a first round tackle. The only reason this guy has first round consideration is because of his Combine workout….
"Austin made the play, Austin saved the day" Brad Sham
I would actually agree with you
I don’t think Anthony Davis has first round character. As the saying goes, “let another team be the hero and draft him.”
Pouncey reminds me of a rich man’s version of Kosier. With all the 3-4 tackles in today’s NFL you would prefer your center to have more strength. Pouncey is still a very good center. But for me to pick a center/guard in the first round he has to be near perfect.
Campbell is inconsistent. Let Al Davis take that Risk.
2009 BTB Fantasy Champ... Deal with it
You might not agree, but they're all going in the 1st
I’d love Dallas to get Pouncey, that’s probably the only one of those mentioned Dallas will have a shot at.

I will take that bet...
Pouncey will be a 2nd round pick..

I heard Tony Washington's
draft stock is dropping anyways due to lack of gap control… : ) Had to say it
when do we get a serious mock from ya Quinnnnncy
decided the N should be multiplied rather than they Y, lol

Because Jerry could put the fear of the chopping block into him!!
Unfortunately it’s not going to happen though…
I want Abe Koroma
based solely on that picture of him, he looks like a monster
Golden Tate can believe it's not butter.
And to think I probably never would've known who this Washington character was.
Of course he’s probably shot up the Raiders board by now.
Was Mike Williams a malcontent?
I thought he just sucked.

Didn't he blow up like the good year blimp?
I thought I heard his work ethic sucked and that’s disruptive enough.
Oh yeah...
his work ethic sucked, but he wasn’t a locker room problem, he just was a bad bad draft pick.

I get what you're saying now.
Chronic loafer isn’t quite the same as locker room cancer. I always thought they should’ve did their darndest to convert him to tight end because there was no way he had the speed to make it as a pro wide receiver.
