The WKG draft?

by stegosaurus! on Jan 14, 2012 10:27 PM CST

We all know that the Cowboys have two main holes to fill, or three depending on the side of the ~~chicken~~ passrush or the ~~egg~~ secondary argument you fall on. As I think the secondary is worse, or at least less talented, than the pass rushers, I will say those two holes are OL and CB/S. Pass rush, however is king...

I know it is blasphemy, but I don't think that Anthony Spencer really was a problem at all. Yes, he only got 6 sacks, but he ranks very well in the league for a strong-side OLB. He is good against the run, and more importantly is very good at pressuring the QB... just not at getting the sack; that pressure still makes a huge difference. I believe the problem was on the interior (I don't know what I want to happen there yet). I do however think Spencer will be gone and we must fill that hole and draft an OLB prospect. Rob Ryan's scheme calls for pressure, blitzes and a lot of man coverage, so a weak secondary like ours just wont do. We need some CBs with size and some safeties with skills. So let's cut to the chase.

Jason Garrett is a stickler for his "RKG" and to be honest so am I. I loved that change. I hate selfish players, even though I loved T.O., and I don't want someone on my team who is playing for the money only. Sometimes however, need comes a knockin' and sacrifices must be made. IMHO a lot of the players who fall totally under RKG in this draft are either unobtainable for us, not good fits for our needs, or flat out just aren't good enough. With quite a few talented players dropping, some significantly, on boards all over due to this or that I say a year of risk might be in order.

I created a 5 rd mock for just this scenario:

1) David DeCastro, OG

- DeCastro is obviously a RKG and really, at least for my 1st, I wouldn't have it any other way. He is a true blue chipper and fits a huge need; 'nuff said. I'd love something like Smith-Holland-Nicks(FA)-Nagy-Free with Arkin waiting in the wings.

2) Vontaze Burfict, OLB

-I know I know he isn't an OLB, but he actually fits quite well, he has a motor and awesome measurables. He has his share of flaws including character issues and he isn't a genius. That is the reason many think he will drop from a possible top 10 to the 2nd. He doesn't make sense at ILB because I'm counting on Bruce-Lee and he can't grasp calling plays or anything of that nature so a "seek and destroy" position would suit him well.

3) Aaron Henry, FS

- Honestly this safety crop is pretty weak and Martin will be long gone. I like Church and I think Sensi can be pretty good if he has others who can play around him, but they're both SS. Henry is very much a CB/FS hybrid type. He has good size and is a solid pick. He wont be a ball hawk, but he can tackle well and man up on receivers. I think Henry can step right in and help as a starter plus develop into a solid FS.

4) Trumaine Johnson, CB

- Like Burfict, Johnson has some issues (he got tasered by a cop at a party) and he's a small school guy. He is however great in man, can press well, He isn't a burner (4.5) but he makes up for it with his size (6'2" 205) and measurables. He is very fluid and long. He might skyrocket up boards after the combine though.

5) Cliff Harris, CB

- Again there are some concerns... he's a speeding pothead... He also went from a probable 1st to a late rounder. That can also change with a good combine.

Now I don't like these risks and as I am writing this I'm wincing a little, but we need some talent. I say if these guys fall to us it will be hard to pass up. Garrett defines his RKG as someone who is willing to work hard and loves the game of football. One man's ~~trash~~ WKG is another man's ~~treasure~~ RKG coughDEZcough. Risk, allow me to introduce you to reward.

Whatcha think?

Oh it's amazingly risky

But I feel like the non risks in this draft seem very meh. I’m not happy about a ton of players. I like Ingram but not a ton the only player I love that we have a chance at is DeCastro. Chia, how do you feel about Aaron Henry?

Aaron Henry

He’s been playing at Wisconsin since 2007, and is a physically fragile player, as he can’t avoid the injury bug.

Again Risk/Reward.

I do agree he has had his problems, but he’s pretty good for a 3rd IMO and we need a real FS. Bad.

I think Tru might be gone by the time we pick in the 3rd

Small school player but getting a REALLY good grade from scouts I am listening to. Just because he is small time doesn’t mean someone won’t go after him early (D-Ware came from Troy and that isn’t exactly one of your big programs). He may slip to the third but I would be surprised to see him fall to the fourth. Although, like you said, if he did, you snatch that guy IMMEDIATELY!!!!

Possibly and I did consider him there,

but I see a lot of scouts placing him in the 5th. A couple even 6th. Now like I said he is already skyrocketing up boards, so a good combine realistically could land him in the 2-3. If they don’t like Henry I would have no problem with taking him there.

Absolutely no on both Burfict and Harris

They are the type of players that bring a cancer into the locker room. Anyone with a memory of Pacman Jones should have all the experience they need to understand what I am talking about here.

Burfict will get you about 2 or more personal foul penalties a game, he’s not bright enough for RR’s scheme, and he doesn’t have the patience to be a good teammate in the poor conditions and pressured atmosphere our team is currently under.

Harris is immature, irresponsible, and thinks he’s above the law. He’s a walking prison sentence. There’s a chance that getting kicked off UO’s team woke him up but I doubt it. I think he has too much baggage to work through to learn this scheme and make a great impact on this team that outweighs the distraction he’s bound to be. Additionally, his size would be a concern in this scheme as CB’s are required to challenge the outside run and make tackles.

Harris

Scares me. He is tiny and he is a eBay, but he’s good. To get talent like his in the late rounds is worth the risk IMO. I onlya had hima at 5 becaise. Honestly by then Ithe dont know a ton of players and the ones I did I didn’t care for. Now a lot of people think he might even go undrafted. If he does we BETTER sign him.

by stegosaurus! on Jan 15, 2012 8:37 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

Jerry used to draft like this.

If everything works its great. Costly if it doesn’t. Looking at the players available, there are so many ways the Cowboys could go that would have a greater chance of success. If DeCastro is there take him. Then go D. If a real steal shows up for a TE or RB take it and fill in using FA. Might not get everything, but a draft like this could go south really quick.

by oldboysfan on Jan 15, 2012 7:56 AM CST reply actions

I agree that it could be a disaster.

I, however do not want to draft either a RB or TE unless it is in the 6-7. We have two good backs and one in the wings. We have a HOT TE and Phillips has shown flashes and both seem to be positions you can find late/UDFA. We NEED talent in the back end.

by stegosaurus! on Jan 15, 2012 8:27 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

I mention RB and TE

only because of the injury potential at RB and the likely loss of Bennett. Jones played well after Murray was hurt, but we had to pick up Morris off the street to have a backfield. TE is a position that is really a difference maker to the offense. See what Brady did with his last night. We have good recievers and much more need at other positions,but if a steal is available in the draft for a TE it would be a good thing.

by oldboysfan on Jan 15, 2012 10:25 AM CST up reply actions

I disagree

the reason that Gronk and Hernandez are featured so much in NE is that other than Welker, who is more of a slot guy, they are the best Receiving options that Brady has….

Look at the Giants…they had Ballard and Boss at the TE position for the past two years, neither of which could be said to be great receiving TE’s.

Here’s a theoretical play from 2010: Snap. Tony takes 7 step drop. Tony looks left at Miles, who is doubled, and looks right to where Roy Williams should be…but instead sees Colombo on his back and a Defensive End foaming at the mouth jumping over Marc’s carcass. Tony proceeds to run like hell and look for Witten

The Packers use JerMichael Finley despite Jennings, Driver, Cobb.

Brees and Rodgers>Romo

Colston, Henderson, Meachum<<<<<<<Austin, Bryant, Robinson

Jennings, Driver, Cobb<<<<<<<Austin, Bryant, Robinson. We could lose Robinson and I’d still take our 3 over theirs, so no a second stud recieving TE is not needed for us.

by stegosaurus! on Jan 15, 2012 11:41 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

I never said it was a need

But a second receiving TE would be a nice option to have if we can get one between rounds 4-7. Like the kid from Louisiana Lafeyette, or the kid from Temple.

What are the chances

that if we were to get Burflict, that he and Bruce Carter could be kind of interchangeable pieces as far as ILBs and OLBs? Carter is only about 235, but with his speed I think he would be great coming off the edge on passing downs, as would Burflict at 250ish. With RR’s schemes, it would be interesting to me to see where he could line these guys up, and bring pressure from.

No doubt

Carter was an OLB at NC, so they could do some fun stuff.

Burflict is way too talented to fall to us in the 2nd....

It’s all a what if. Who thought Dez would fall to 24? Not I. I am not willing to trade up at all in this draft really. Unless players fall a ton.

by stegosaurus! on Jan 15, 2012 10:04 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

No trading up!

That’s for teams that are 1 player away, and this team is clearly not only 1 player away. Stay put, or trade down 3-4 spots max, and only if it yields the player you want and AT LEAST an extra 3rd.

by sportsfanatic21 on Jan 15, 2012 11:24 AM CST up reply actions

agree no trade up,

However there is a huge difference in a blue chip prospect falling to 24 like Dez did than a blue chipper falling to mid 2nd round.

Just like Dez, The minute Burflict is still there in the 20’s of the first round…a team will either take him or a team will move up to grab the value…..and not only would he have to make it out of the bottom of the 1st, but he would also have to last half-way through the 2nd.

Unless he fails a drug test or suffers and injury, he will not drop that far. If he does I would run up to the podium as fast as I can.

by death of the cool on Jan 15, 2012 11:49 AM CST up reply actions

Its a long shot but this is all a a what if scenario. No one knows what will happen. RG3 was once a late 2nd now he his top 5 and if the #2 team needed a QB he’d go there.

bruce can't rush the passer and i don't know if burflict can, so drafting him

I honestly don't know why people say stuff like this....

particularly, since his Measureables(4.2 SS time) point to the fact that he could…

Just because a player hasn’t done something doesn’t mean that he couldn’t….I ran into the same thing with Von Miller last year….People where saying that he Couldn’t drop into Coverage, or play run Support, because he College Coach didn’t want him to,(he played a D-ware role in College, all pass rush all the time).

by I am Ironman!!! on Jan 15, 2012 12:59 PM CST up reply actions

rushing the passer isn't measured by 40 times, by the way i doubt he runs in the 4.2

he may be a 4.4 range guy, but well to rush the passer you need more than speed, if you rely just on that chances are you are just and edge speed rusher who has on the repetoire just a move, that’s not a challenge for any offense, if speed is means all for a pass rusher why derrick brooks wasn’t a rush guy, he was fast, urlacher is fast but he isn’t a pass rusher, manny lawson is extremely fast a former first rounder who never managed to become a three down player

Apology Accepted, However

there is a reason I put that up….FiTaT put up a post about Pass rushers awhile back, that really opened my eyes to the SS and 3-cone drills:

I can’t remember the exact title, but it was something like what important in a Pass Rusher or something like that…(Mind Helping Me out FiTaT?)

The Gist of the post was that 40 times, and Bench press were not the factors one should look at to judge a Pass Rusher, but look to the Vertical jump and the SS Time(and to a lesser extent the Broad+3-cone)…. the Ideal Measureables for a Elite Pass Rusher according to the post is a sub 4.4 SS time with a Vertical jump of +35"….. that is for “edge rushers” such as OLB’s and 4-3 DE’s….

AS an OLB BC put up a reported 4.2 SS time and a 40.5 "Vertical Leap….well within the “Elite Area” for Edge rushers…… so he very well could rush the Passer….and as for the reason he couldn’t “hold up” as a 3-4 Solb…As I understand it, a 3-4 Solb and 4-3 SOLB have similar Responsibilities, in that they Cover TE’s, and Play Run Support…..so why Couldn’t he Move to SOLB (which is what he Played In College BTW I do Believe)?

The more I think about it, the more I wouldn't mind picking Burfict if he is somehow there.

I have generally been against picking him because he is probably best suited at ILB, but he would give us some amazing flexibility. Can you imagine a 5-man floating group of Ware, Lee, Carter, Burfict, Hatcher, and Ratliff? You have four guys who can cover, and some elite athletes to rush as well.

by clark on Jan 15, 2012 4:51 PM CST reply actions

Some explanatory notes

I just don’t think Jerry picks a guard in round one. We all love DeCastro, but Jerry is an old school GM who views interior linemen as cogs who can be coached up by the right coach, and that’s why Callahan is here. Besides, its a deep year for interior linemen between FA and the draft. Conversely, its a very thin year for OLBs, making Upshaw a strong value.

Jenkins is a classic WKG, but he’s a first round talent who has kept his nose clean all year. Surround him with the right people and he’s a steal in the second round.

but I don’t think Jason Garrett would ever go for it. Too many character concerns.

Agree its just a what if. I think if somehow burfict somehow fell to our 2 you’d have to take him though

Personally I don't think they are going after anyone but DeCastro...

J. Jenkins.. may be a possibility in the 2nd but I really doubt that JG goes that direction. I would for one risk a 2nd even though I don’t like the guy personally… in the right enviorment and maybe for the right incentives… maybe. If I shore up my OL and he’s available in the 2nd I would have no problems taking him… he is a blue chip talent and would start and play well in press coverage. He also has great hands… as good as or better then LSU’s Clairborne. Without the issues he would be a top 5 pick. I don’t actually see him sliding into the 2nd though.

If you believe he

is a top five talent, why would you only take him in the 2nd round if he is clean? He’s going to be drug tested. He was at least smart enough to get out of the environment he was in and walk the straight and narrow. I give him some credit for that at least.
