Pencil him or Jared Crick as the 2nd round pick

"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."

Crick was a strong candidate in the second because of his first round talent despite his injury, now Barron makes things interesting. Hope he recovers well soon.

That Solves It

We’re going after Barron in the 2nd…we all know how Jerry loves his injured first round prospects in the 2nd round.

I know he's not a running back but,

if he has any kind of career like the bad knee out of college RB Thurman Thomas had, I’d be glad to have him on our team.

This makes things interesting

Getting two guys with first round grades again possibly. This would be great if it happened and we got him in the second and added Janoris Jenkins or someone else in the first round.

If we can land Barron or Crick in round 2

Wow, that’s some good fortune.

Amazing luck for us if it happens and it certainly hits our motif of drafting talented players who are hurt

Between Crick's Injury and his Inconsistent Season

A lot of people have Crick as a 3rd or 4th round prospect. He’s absolutely tumbled down the boards from last year where he was a late 1st/early 2nd rounder. Not having Suh by his side has really hurt his productivity.

by inwittenitrust on Feb 9, 2012 10:36 AM CST up reply actions

In 2010, the first season without Suh

Jared Crick had 9.5 sacks.

"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."

Jared Crick's full 2010 stats (w/o Suh's help)

17 TFLs, 9.5 Sacks, 10 QBhits

Crick is a Beast

Getting either late would be outstanding imo. Dallas is….the healing place.
It is going to be interesting to see how far both Crick & Barron slide, and who steps up to grab them.

by 1Bullseye on Feb 9, 2012 3:26 PM CST up reply actions

Can you imagine if we got Kirkpatrick or Jenkins in the 1st, Barron in the 2nd, and Crick in the 3rd? That would really help our D.

Would be awesome

I doubt it happens

But with injuries you just never know. Look how far Bowers fell (I know it was a more serious unjust but he was thought to be a top 3 player before that.

by stegosaurus! on Feb 9, 2012 4:58 PM CST via mobile up reply actions

Wow!

this should shake up the mock drafts a bit.

by 99yard_TD_Run on Feb 9, 2012 9:21 AM CST reply actions

yes it should

mark barron is not a first round guy, i don't like him even in the second

i’d rather have jared crick

by ratware on Feb 9, 2012 9:38 AM CST reply actions

Dez Bryant, Sean Lee, Tyron Smith, Bruce Carter, Demarco Murray

Now if we can get Janoris Jenkins or David Decastro in the first, and Mark Barron or Jared Crick in the 2nd, that’d be amazing. That’s seven 1st round worthy players in 3 years. If it turns out like that in this year’s draft, the ’Boys are going to deserve a lot of credit for turning around our drafting fortune. We are basically building our team for the next decade

Is this a sign from god ? Does he want Dallas to get this man ?

I think so

"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."

I just don't see Dallas taking him.

Sure, he is potentially first round talent that might drop into the second round because of an injury. But is he an ILB? No. So, I think Dallas passes on him. Now, if Kuechly hurts his knee, Dallas would be on that like a fly on …

... Why does he have to be an ILB?

He fits a need.

Sorry, I don't know the sarcasim font.

More commenting on the last two times it was an ILB.

I can see Jerry trading up, maybe taking him at the end of the 1st, high 2nd.

strong possibility that happens

It's confirmed

I was listening to Dan Shonka of http://www.ourlads.com on San Diego’s 1090/XX this afternoon. He mentioned Mark Barron’s doubled sports hernia and said he won’t be able to work out at the combine or his pro day.

profootballtalk.com is running with it now

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/02/10/top-safety-barron-expected-to-miss-combine-following-surgery/

Mark Barron after having double hernia surgery is expected to miss 8 weeks. That means the earliest he can work out for teams prior to the draft, is April 10th.
