Feeling a Cowboys' draft

Can you say Dead Zone? I can; this is the period of waiting that drives us all to pull our hair out, or pull rumors out of our John Brown hind parts. Anquan Boldin, I’m looking at you! DeAngelo Hall, you’re still available. Pacman Jones, the Dallas metroplex could use some rain, so come on down. Anybody else want to come and play for the Cowboys for some magical mix of draft picks and players? Big Tuna, surely you can come up with a tasty rumor for Cowboys Nation to devour. We’re hungry; free agency was not a satisfying meal.

So much for the flights of fancy, let’s talk about something real, that’s the NFL draft coming up on April 26th. What’s a team to do? Here’s some of my observations for the Cowboys – and believe me, there’s nothing groundbreaking in what I’m observing.

The Cowboys needs are the subject of much talk. For me, the top two are cornerback and running back. I discussed both situations here and here. At that time, I was torn between which was the higher priority. I’ve come to the conclusion that cornerback is the highest priority for the Cowboys in the draft. Behind Terence Newman and Anthony Henry we really have no depth. In today’s NFL, you have to have a third corner that is essentially a starter given all the spread offense and passing teams you face on a week-to-week basis. Right now, the Cowboys options for that nickel corner are Alan Ball and Evan Oglesby, plus a few others. That shouldn’t inspire confidence in anyone. Ball is the subject of constant "we really like him" refrains from the Cowboys staff but he’s a 7th-round pick who never saw the field for significant playing time last season. Maybe he has shown them enough in practice to justify the confidence, but it’s more likely they like him, but not enough to thrust him into a starter’s role at nickel corner. Whatever the case, based on the early invite list to Valley Ranch before the draft – Aqib Talib, DRC, Antoine Cason – the writing is on the wall, the Cowboys are interested in drafting a top-flight cornerback. This is priority number one in the draft.

Next up, running back. Let me discern between this being a high priority need and the need to draft one in the first round. While I’d like to see the Cowboys use one of their first-round picks on a running back if they can get their hands on one of the projected first-round talents, they could wait until later in the draft to choose one. It’s a little different than cornerback where the drop-off in talent seems to be steeper than running back. The Cowboys could wait until the second round and hope a Jamaal Charles, Chris Johnson or Ray Rice or some other guy is still available. But it’s still a high priority that we walk out of the draft with a runner. Why? Because the only guy on the roster with any experience is MB3. Behind him, nothing. The Cowboys could sign a vet between now and the draft, they could be waiting out for the bargain shopper’s special, but if they don’t, it’s imperative they draft somebody who can be counted on to be a semi-starter that can spell MB3 without a major drop-off in talent.

While not everyone agrees, I think there’s a general consensus that the corner and running back are the top priorities. After that, or before that – depending on who you talk to – comes wide receiver. I can see that in some ways but as a high-priority it doesn’t register. I’m not blind to the fact that Terry Glenn may or may not be back to fill the #2 WR role in 2008. I also know that T.O. is playing under the last year of his contract and that both those guys are reaching their mid-30’s which is the worry-line for wide receivers. But here’s why I don’t think it’s a high-priority. If the worst-case happens and Terry Glenn doesn’t play in 2008, then the Cowboys could return the same set of receivers they had last year, and last year that group was part of one the best, most explosive offenses in the league and there’s no reason to think they wouldn’t be again. People like to bring up the playoff game and how with a hobbled T.O. it all fell apart. Well, to some degree that’s true, but a lot of that was human error (Crayton and Fasano dropping big passes) and some of that was due to the furious pass rush of the Giants. Also, the defense’s meltdown before halftime didn’t help. My point is that the same set of receivers could come back this year and we’d still be an explosive offense. Now, that doesn’t mean I don’t want to upgrade the receiver corps. Having a speedster to help stretch the defense opposite T.O. (a role Glenn used to fill) would be a good thing. Someone to battle Crayton as the #2 sure wouldn’t hurt – although, unlike a majority of Cowboys fans, I don’t have a problem with Crayton as the #2. His production throughout the season was very good for a "third option" because in reality he’s behind T.O. and Jason Witten in the pecking order. I’m not writing him off because he crumbled in the playoff game. So while I wouldn’t mind getting a young WR with some speed, I can live with the WR’s we have on the roster now. I’m also anxious to see what Isaiah Stanback can do in his second year now that he’s past the foot injury and has had time to learn the nuances of being a receiver.

Once you get past that, there are some other positions where we could use some help. Fullback comes to mind. Deon Anderson should jump into the starter’s role but behind him we only have a guy that was recently signed and who the Cowboys can’t be sure of as a regular should Anderson become injured or even to spell him on gameday. Adding one in the draft seems like a smart play. At nose tackle, with the recent trade of Jason Ferguson, we still have Jay Ratliff and Tank Johnson. But if the Cowboys have the notion of moving Ratliff back to defensive end, the natural position for him in my opinion, then they need to draft someone to rotate with Tank. Also, at safety, with the departure of Keith Davis, the uncertainty about Ken Hamlin’s long-term contract and the suspect play of Roy Williams in conjunction with his huge contract, the Cowboys might want to add another prospect at that spot. Finally, as always, you can never have enough linebackers in a 3-4 defense, so picking up another one is always a good idea in the draft.

There you have it. My thoughts on the Cowboys draft as it stands on this day, March 14th, 2008. Now it’s your turn. Thoughts?

The WR issue is tricky

Due to not really being sure of our current receivers. Will Glenn be back? Will Hurd and Austin improve? Is Stanback ready (or will he ever be ready) to be a receiver? So many question marks. At any rate, we should concentrate on getting somebody in the draft. Receivers take time to develop, so we might as well take that time now so we won't be a$$ed out when Glenn and Owens ride off in the sunset.

There are two Adrian Petersons, but there is only one Marion Barber.

Mock Draft

I think this mock draft is the best one ive seen to date in my opinion and it goes along with what your saying. It gives us a top flight corner, a receiver with a lot of potential, and a running back in the second round. All of our needs are addressed in the first 2 rounds and the rest of the draft is used for depth.

CB and RB have to be addressed on the 1st day

meaning rds 1 and 2 of the draft. Rds 3-7 are now on day 2.

I think our 1st rd targets should be Mendenhall, Stewart (if he checks out medically) and Jones at RB and McKelvin and DRC at CB. If all of these are gone by  #22, trade down to get another 2nd rd pick.

Regarding WR, the only guy I like is Devin Thomas in the 1st rd, but like Grizz said, WR isn't really as important as CB and RB as far as priority this season.

Plus, I think going through an off season healthy working with Ray Sherman and Romo, Stanback will provide the pop will need at WR if Glenn doesn't play.

Over at the boys blog , I was reminded of the quote by Phillips this past season who said none of our guys could cover Stanback in practice. This kid, IMO, could end up being a real star.

Whenever crumbs of data on Stanback appeared they glowed.  "The team loves him," we’ve heard.  "We couldn’t cover him in practice," his head coach once opined.

In Romo we Trust

by Terry on Mar 14, 2008 12:51 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I am pretty excited about Stanback

He will have a full offseason to work out, practice and get ready for this season. With Stanback healthy, Hurd or Austin might be the odd man out, and that could be Austin.

While it would be nice if a guy like Devin Thomas falls to us in the second round, I just cant see the Cowboys drafting a WR on the first day.

Food for thought

I am of the opinion that we should not be trading down in this draft; this team only needs a few pieces.  If we can trade #28 for a 2nd and 3rd or two 2nds, that's worth doing, but the normal 2nd and 4th package doesn't do a lot for me.  The 4th round has been good to us in the recent past, but I think, if anything, we should use our 2nd rounder to trade UP from 28.  Our 2nd and #28 would get us into the 18-19 range according to the value chart, which is probably enough to secure Mendenhall/Stewart or perhaps a good CB.  If we're going to be trading picks, I'd rather sacrifice that 2nd to get the two guys we want instead of trading down because we missed out on what we needed.  

I wouldn't normally advocate these things, but given the window we're in now, I think it's time to go for it.  I realize this is the same argument people make for D-Mac, so I'm ready for the retorts.

actually

The 4th round has been good to us in the recent past

Skyler Green? and the jury is still out on Isaiah Stanback. He could be a Matt Jones in the making.

Could be another fourth round blunder.

If anything, our first round picks in the lower 20's haven't faired too well.

If Jerry moves up this draft it will be for you know who. Like Nick Eatman said today on his show all we need is one draft partner and if DMAC falls to the Patriots at seven, look out!. Cowboys and Patriots have a history of doing deals.

I was referring to MB3 and Canty

Considering 4th round picks are usually nothing special, those guys have paid big dividends.

I must admit I am becoming more concerned that Jerry may make a play for DMac, but thankfully Oakland is probably going to take him at 4 (seems like such an Al Davis pick, and sets up their offense nicely at QB and RB).  If Jerry wants to jump up to 7 for McLovin, I could live with that, but I think the guys they are bringing in for visits shows that they're not planning on making a big move.

Trading up into the top 10 for any

of these CB's is a HUGE reach. I would throw myself off my roof if we drafted Mckelvin at 7. DMAC is the only player in this draft Jerry would move up that far no question about it.

sure we can Terry stop saying that

It's called restructuring of contracts and releasing of players. It's going to happen. If the Raiders can afford the 4th pick with under 3 mil in cap space I think we can afford a top ten pick

You are the guy saying we don't have enough money

To even secure our own top young players. Now you are taking the opposite position?

No way Dallas re-signs MB3 (which is coming) and trades up to take another RB. Too much money on a risky position. Even though I love DMac, I don't see how a passing offense commits that much money to the RB position.

Next year Tom, not this year

It's obvious Jerry is in no rush to give extensions to any of RFA's yet, but we have to sign our draft picks which is very important. That we can control right now.

Who knows, the RB we draft could be the starter next year if we cant resign MB3. Which is why I think who ever is selected is capable of starting, not just a change of pace RB. Chris Johnson is not that player. Stewart, Mendenhall, DMAC, Jones are those players

Terry...Jones can rework any contract he wants..

Hew's already made it quite clear we can go after anyone we want...It would take a day to restructure contracts..They don't even need to do anything till July anyways...relax guy....The reason we aren't using up money on Free agents is cuz there weren't any out there to begin with...

If we weren't getting Samuels or Turner...I knew we wouldn't bring in some filler pieces, You either aquire starters or you leave it to the draft...never should go after back ups..unless they are bare minimum bargains..And we don't exactly got the roster spaces to waste money on right now...we'll fill out our roster during training camp.

Oakland can't afford a happy meal right now

They might look to trade down. They spent so much of their cap on FA's they may not be able to afford a top 5 player.

lol...i hear ya grape....retorts are tough..

I am all for trading UP with either our #22 or #28, and our 2nd rounder...

I've always believed after the TOP 20 overall...there is consistantly a drop off. I think the same holds true this year.

I'd rather sacrifice our #22, and our 2nd rounder, to get in the 12-16 range..to SECURE a top back (Stewart,Mendenhall) or CB (DRC,Jenkins), than HOPE one falls to us.I'd even offer up an additional 3rd in '09 if that's what it takes...seeing we'll more than likely receive compensation for all of our lost FA's this year.

We'd still have our 2nd #1 to either use there, trade UP again..Or trade down to retrieve a better 2nd than we had originally plus an additional pick.

We have 8 picks to aquire 7 players:

Nice write up
but counting on Crayton for the long haul as the #2 WR spells disaster! We need a true playmaker opposite TO. He doesn't have to be as dymanic, but more of a threat than Crayton where opposing defense have to account for him on the field, especially when TO is not in the lineup.

I agree Terry...Stanback WILL be a stud..........

I've seen enough of him to get a feel for what he's got....To think...In his limited playing time last year...the dude rattled off a 26.0 yard per return average, albeit just 3 KO returns...one was for 35 yards..He showed me toughness, elusiveness, and sure hands in the limited role as receiver during pre-season.

I have no doubt he will progress...after watching as much film as i could get my hands on....the dude is a pure athlete..looked like he's got a good stride, cut back ability, power and vision...Being a QB, He knows every route there is to know...he's been watching defensive schemes for years, he was a receiver in college, and he's a friggin track star...There is no comparison to Matt Jones at all...He blows Crayton away with his upside and potential, physically gifted, and now healthy....we sure will see come August. Austin will be very nervous come cut down time.

He reminds me of a more athletic Kordell Stewart, yet doesn't hold on to dreams of being a QB..

I agree..I love his potential...He's a football player..plain and simple..I don't look at this guy as some project, He's a proven player throws, runs, receives...I expect him on the field this year as our 3rd WR if Terry Glenn isn't able to go.

Unless we get a top round WR, I don't see Hurd or Austin holding this guy back from being #3 or #4 WR.

Risky Business...

...he obviously didn't like the long-term offers he was getting, so he signs with a WR needy team like the Niners and takes his chances on having a big year playing in Mike Martz system.

Similar to what Donte' Stallworth did last year....although Donte' didn't really have a big year in NE, it was enough to convince the Browns to invest heavily in him.

I think there is a better chance at landing a RB in the first round than a CB.

Our chances are slim at getting a first round CB unless you want Flowers or King.

And even thinner if you think Jerry is moving up for any of these guys. Jerry trades down, but rarely up.

Wait for a back.

We all seen to agree that CB, WR, and RB are the three most pressing needs. If you really look at the players available, the RB class is the deepest of the three positions.

McFadden, Mendenhall, and Stewart are all a step above the rest, agree? Well, standing pat at 22, we arent going to see them anyway. Maybe Stewart with his injury but probably even that wont make him slide. So if the top tier guys are gone, wouldnt anyone we took at 22 or 28 be a bit of a reach?

Same with the corners, if McKelvin, Jenkins, DRC, and Talib are gone by our pick, we are reaching again.

However, with the WR's any of the top 4 guys (Kelly, Jackson, Thomas, Sweed) would match value at 22, or be a steal at 28.

Plus I can think of about 8 RB's I'd be happy with.

by Longhorn on Mar 14, 2008 5:29 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

As of right now, RB has to be #1

I have always felt that a team should go into the draft having options at all positions so they are not backed into a corner and choosing players based on need.  Maybe some of those options aren’t the greatest, but at least the cupboard shouldn’t be bare.  

There are six wide receivers signed for 2008 on the Cowboys roster and five cornerbacks signed for next year.  There are zero running backs signed.  Based on those numbers I guess running back would be Need #1.  I have no idea what the Cowboys are thinking at running back, but it sure better be addressed before the draft or they will be in the very unenviable position of being forced into drafting a running back in the first round and another one in the later rounds.  

I continue to believe very strongly that the MBIII situation must be resolved before the draft, either through signing him to a long-term deal or trading him for a draft pick. Counting on him to play all sixteen games in 2008 for the $2.5M tender is just asking for major trouble.   Dallas also needs to sign a veteran running back before the draft, and the pickings seem to get slimmer every day.
