Pick just 1 player

[Biggems]

not 2, 3, or 4....not and/or/but....just give me the 1 player you want most for the Cowboys to draft.....

now please be reasonable and consider prospect rankings....

for me, the player I want more than any player in this draft, and for the first time in several years it isn't a defensive player.....

OG David DeCastro

I want a wall in front of Romo and the QB after him. Smith and DeCastro will be that wall for the next decade plus.....I feel like a rabid dog, I'm salivating so much at the thought of this......

[BrAinPaiNt]

DeCastro is my man. But I will not blow a gasket if they do not draft him...might blow a gasket if they draft someone I don't like. :D

[vaquerosdedallas]

Fletcher Cox but he will probably be gone before the 'Boy's pick at #14.

[a_minimalist]

DeCastro

[Zimmy Lives]

Hightower.

[fortdick]

DeCastro

[GloryDaysRBack]

Mark Barron

[johnnyd]

DeCastro

[theogt]

Barron.

[Chuck 54]

Cox (but Coples is a close second...and I know you said one, but the filter said my post was too short) :)

[hipfake08]

DeCastro.

The last time I blew a gasket was over missing Randy Moss. They thought I was having an Epileptic fit.
Last time that happened.
Never More.

[CowboysnSpurs]

Coples. Decastro is a close second

[reddyuta]

Ingram-his versatility will make this team better.

[AKATheRake]

Mark Barron.

[Doomsday101]

DeCastro. One of the top ranked players in the entire draft and as close to a safe pick that you could make. Add to that it is an area of need.

[fanfromvirginia]

Viva DeCastro!

[btcutter]

Amini Silatolu G

I think he may have the highest ceiling for all the G. Not to mention he can play RT as well.

I like your pick the best

However

I got this from another board, and this could work too. "I think we should take Dontari Poe if he is still available and take Donta Hightower in the second round."

No chance on Hightower at 45

I would like Hightower because of the intangibles he brings but I just don't know where he'd play.

[AKATheRake]

Amini Silatolu G

Can get him in the 2nd,

Glenn is also available for a 1st and can play RT.

Zeitler and Osemele are also available and you don't have to use a 1st rounder on them. Osemele you might not even have to use a 2nd.

Thus why I prefer Barron. We have not had a true safety in years and this guy does it all. Has been a champ more than once, makes big plays, would lead our secondary like Woody did and is an enforcer like Woody was.

Harrison Smith is not Mark Barron and there is no other safety in this draft that touches this guy. He played at that level with a sports hernia and other lingering injuries. Durable at all costs and was a man amongst boys in college.

Look at Alabama players, LSU players, most of the Auburn players from the other year are gone, Florida players, Oklahoma players, Texas. These are the schools that are always in the mix to win it all and it's for 2 good reasons. (1) They have the pedigree of coaches to develop the winning system and players. (2) They have the pedigree of player talent and leadership to win championships.

[casmith07]

Just one? David DeCastro.

[Dash28]

DeCastro

Barron and Cox tied for second.

[cowboysooner]

I think Hightower is a guy who could slip unexpectedly on draft day. If Pittsburgh or Baltimore don't take him where is he going? He is best utilized in a 3-4 and as we saw in free agency, linebackers that are not edge rushers are not in high demand.

New England is full at ILB. 49ers? Pack? The next pure 3-4 team is KC in the 40's.

A 265lbs linebacker that rushes on 3rd down instead of covering does not fit many schemes. Is he going to be a better pass rusher than your 2/3rd d end?

2 down backer for the Giants? The Colts could take him but I could definitely see them going all offense early because they lost about 8 starters and Luck could get killed.

[JackWagon]

I think Decastro is the next Hutchinson at guard. Guy you pick and plug in there and he is all-pro in his 2nd or 3rd year and plays for you for 15 years.

[Sasquatch]

Barron.

[Zimmy Lives]

I would like Hightower because of the intangibles he brings but I just don't know where he'd play.

This!

I think Hightower can have an impact this year at any LB position and can replace Spencer next year. Cox and DeCastro would be solid picks but I think Hightower can be a future leader on defense.

[JohnsKey19]

Barron.

As Parcells would say, I've been sucked...

[cielo07]

Decastro
cox and barron close behind

[btcutter]

The question was which one player I want. Not which player I want in the 1st round.

[AKATheRake]

Fair enough. :)

[Bowdown27]

Mark Barron.

[cowboysooner]

Coples

[AsthmaField]

Not with our first pick, but maybe with a move up from 45:

Hightower.

Intensity, intangibles, leadership, enthusiasm, intimidation, brute force, smarts, and versatility. All our defense has been needing.

Take the BPA at 14 and then move up to take Hightower.

Rob Ryan would have a blast using this guy all over the place.

[28 Joker]

Peter Konz C Wisconsin

Solidifies the interior offensive line and starts day one at center... Perfect fit in Dallas' zone angle running scheme... Big, tough, athletic, instinctive, physical, experienced...

[btcutter]

Fair enough. :)

If it's 1st round at 14 without trade then I want Coples.:)

[Risen Star]

Andrew Luck.

[funkytown]

Brandon Boykin CB/KR Georgia

Gonna stay away from the obvious 1st round guys and look at later in the draft.

Boykin can be had in 2nd round, but may slip to the 3rd. Would love to have him as a nickel corner and Kick returner. He is electric at returns, and should develop to a starting corner next year if/when Jenkins leaves via free agency. Fills two holes that are deeply needed.

[Dmoore Esq]

Mark Barron.

I'd just like to address the safety position sufficiently and not have to worry about bringing in retreads every offseason. I think he starts from day 1 and makes our defense a lot better.

Just go DE in round 2 and OG in round 3, and call it a day. I just can't justify going DeCastro in round 1.

[Dash28]

Andrew Luck.
How is that reasonable and taking prospect rankings into consideration?

:rolleyes:

[BIGDen]

DeCastro.

The last time I blew a gasket was over missing Randy Moss. They thought I was having an Epileptic fit.
Last time that happened.
Never More.

DeCastro. The last time I flipped out during the draft was when they passed on S. Jackson.

[Verdict]

Broyles. I think he will be the steal of this draft if he falls as low as he is expected to fall.

[Risen Star]

:rolleyes:

I'm a rebel.

[TheCowboy]

David DeCastro.

[AKATheRake]

If it's 1st round at 14 without trade then I want Coples.:)

He's got to drop first. I would scoop him up also.

Put another 5-10 lbs on him and we have a hell of a 3-4 pass rushing DE.

Better than J.J Watt. Yes, I mean it. :D

I just don't think he's going to drop to us. Too talented and was going to be a top 5 pick for good reason.

[blandi60]

Mark Barron

[ABQcowboyJR]

LOL guess Barron is the flavor of the week around here.

My guy is Jake Bequette. I'm convinced this guy can be someone at the next level. Not alot of talk about him though. We will see what the league thinks of him here before too long.

[xwalker]

The player I would most like for Dallas to draft. Not the player I want them to draft in the 1st round.

Bruce Irvin

[Vintage]

Cox, Coples, or Barron.... And id be pleased. But I fully recognize they di this for a living.... And I post on a message board.

[Leadbelly]

Can get him in the 2nd,

Glenn is also available for a 1st and can play RT.

DeCastro is my dude, but there's a lot to be said for looking at a college defense full of future 1st round picks and grabbing the guy who's always making the game-changing plays - Barron.

That's a really good point man!

[lane]

in the later rounds i hope we get cyrus gray..

he and don juan demarco would be fun, fun, fun.

[Risen Star]

Rake, that's not a bad draft class at all, although I don't want Burfict anywhere near our locker room.

[Aven8]

Anybody that weighs over 350 lbs and likes to play the nose. ;)

[Doomsday]

DeCastro, I am tired of watching the interior of Dallas' line get blown backwards and whiff on basic blitz pick ups. Tony is our best player, its time to start protecting him.

[Shotgun Dave]

What he said. DeCastro by a mile. Draft him and sweat not for 8-10 years.

[CowboyChris]

Ingram in the 1st round....later in the draft i want Joe Adams

[GloryDaysRBack]

Andrew Luck.

If luck falls to 45 I'd take him

Can't justify taking a player who won't make an impact right away at 14

[mensaone]

It is hard to think of one player but yes DeCastro if he falls but doubt it.

DeCastro


If he is on the board at 14 and we pass on him..........man, I am going to be pissed.:mad:

[BAT]

Bruce Irvin.


If its a choice for 14, then Coples.


Cowboys need more catalytic players.

[dallasfaniac]

Shea McClellin

[AKATheRake]

Rake, that's not a bad draft class at all, although I don't want Burfict anywhere near our locker room.

Thanks!

Burfict is definitely a cannon. Only 6th down I would select him. Might actually humble him. Plus if he acted up he could be disposed of with no overly impactful loss.

I like his game tape but it did hurt to throw his bad character in there. He may not even get drafted. He is very talented nonetheless, yet extremely dirty.

Hmm, it isn't worth it. Doubt he's on my update. lol!

[AKATheRake]

DeCastro is my dude, but there's a lot to be said for looking at a college defense full of future 1st round picks and grabbing the guy who's always making the game-changing plays - Barron.

So perfectly said.

[pupulehaole]

I want to see Stephon Gilmore in a Cowboys uniform.

Let's see. No, DeCastro means Romo goes down with broken collar bone in week two. In steps Kyle Orton for three games and goes out with concussion after throwing all balls into the cheap seats. In steps third string Quarter Back (?) to finish season with the defense scoring all the touch downs . Yep, lets pass on DeCastro!!!:)

This scenario brings the cowboys record to 5 and 11 for season.

[Fredd]

Coples, and it's not even close
