Might as well add to the confusion and b.s.

ESPN's Todd Archer reports that there's a "good chance" LSU DT Michael Brockers will be the Cowboys' pick at No. 14.
In beat reporter Todd Archer's story, he goes on to explain that Brockers would do nothing to improve Dallas' pass rush while perhaps hinting that this pick could spell the end of Marcus Spears' Cowboys tenure. Brockers would be a "five technique" defensive end in Dallas' 3-4. He was a D-Tackle at LSU. Apr 26 - 4:22 PM

This is like the Nate Livings of 1st round picks. :mad:

[SDogo]

Is it 8pm yet?

[JackWagon]

*chuckle* .. well in about 4 hours we will surely know :)

So Archer believes Brockers will do nothing to improve the pass rush. Why isn't he the one making the decisions in Big D? Archer! Go tell Jerry this news right away! :rolleyes:

Geeze.

[SDogo]

Pauline and Archer need to exchange numbers....

[Beast_from_East]

This is like the Nate Livings of 1st round picks. :mad:

Yea, a run stuffing DE that cant sniff the QB is just what this team needs.;)

[CCBoy]

Pauline and Archer need to exchange numbers....

Cool....a blind date.:D

[TheSport78]

Maybe Archer gets his sources from Mosley...

[Dash28]

Misleading title.

[Aliencowboy]

Great pick but only if he plays NT !!!

It really would be a hard pick to get excited about.

The only thing worse for me is a cornerback in the 1st round.

Replacing Spears with a Spears clone, awesome way to spend the #14 pick :laugh2::banghead::(

[Beast_from_East]

Misleading title.


Yea, Archer says there is a "good chance" it "could be" Brockers.


That is a hell of alot different than "Brockers is the pick".




Archer is just guessing, just like all of us are right now.

[HoustonFrog]

Misleading title.

Sorry I tried to add LIKELY and it wouldn't stick

[SDogo]

The sick part of my mind hopes the pick is Brockers just to watch the fall out in this place with so many people having such a misguided analysis of him.

Everybody is guessing. Even the decision makers on this team don't know who they're picking right now.

Again, I tried to correct it. the Twitter link to it said he would be pick and then when I opened and pasted link it was too late. Right now it is just a people throwing crap to see what sticks anyways.

Geeze.
I think you could argue that they expect he will command double teams fairly soon--which will free up Rat and whoever is playing at OLB opposite Dware.

[theogt]

Holy misleading title batman.

Yeah, I guess Leon Lett did nothing to improve Dallas' pass rush in the 90s either since he never had more than 4 sacks. Personally I would prefer Poe since he can play either NT or DE with out of this world physical skills, but as long as Brockers can be the dominator/disrupter that it appears they think he can I'm for it over the other choices.

Dont you know the only way to improve the pass RUSH is to sack the QB, that's why it's called the pass SACK....oh....maybe not.

Did Todd tell, JJ, JG, and Stephen yet?

[cds99]

I honestly would sling **** everywhere in the house if this cat was picked at 14!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dash28]

It's all good.

I guess my entire mind is sick because I have been anticipating it the whole day.

[CCBoy]

I guess my entire mind is sick because I have been anticipating it the whole day.

It would be great to see some blocked passes again as well.

[theogt]

I'm going to throw my laptop out the window, video it and post it if we pick Brockers.

[Bull209]

I'm going to throw my laptop out the window, video it and post it if we pick Brockers.

Looking forward to this. :laugh2:

I'll be just as disappointed, but at least something funny will have happened.

See, this is why I get bad thoughts.

I want to know the minute the video goes online!:D

Changed my mind in Brocker, he now tops my wish list

[JackWagon]

you know what we should all do ... have our wives video tape our reactions to the pick tonight and all post to youtube

[jblaze2004]

The sick part of my mind hopes the pick is Brockers just to watch the fall out in this place with so many people having such a misguided analysis of him.

what is your analysis on brockers sdogo? I don't think brockers is another spears I think spears is his floor but in the prime albert Haynesworth is his ceiling(with out the attitude and foot stomping on head).

The thing people fail to realize is brockers arms are lonnnnnggggg. I think get him in tip top shape and work on some passrushing moves He could suprise us with a 6 sack season and alot of collapsing/pushing the pocket which would help others get sacks.

[Gaede]

Honestly, me too. I actually sat down and watched all the YT videos and saw a different player than I had previously.

[CCBoy]

If Dallas takes Brockers, it's because they really want him. They are by no means strapped to the fourteen slot.

[Bull209]

What does Dallas wanting a guy mean? I'm sure they wanted Jason Williams.

[CCBoy]

It's draft day...go sit in the corner and cry in your own beer.

[stasheroo]

For some people, whatever they do is golden.

Check your brain at the door.

:shoot6:

[Cowboy Junkie]

Pauline and Archer need to exchange numbers....

do you still think Brockers is the pick? seems like a lot of things being thrown around right now

[cowboys2233]

Misleading title.

It's ridiculously misleading. Suspiciously so. Brockers is a POS. How's that for a headline? :laugh2:

[Deep_Freeze]

Changed my mind in Brocker, he now tops my wish list

Problem with that is, if we got Barron we can still get a DE in round 2 cause the class is relatively deep.

If Brockers is first on the list, we won't get a starting safety in this draft and we will have to go with the JAG that is Pool.

The '95 Cowboys won a Super Bowl with Larry Brown at corner, but a lot more up front.

Dude you know I'm holding you to that, I can't wait to see this.

[Deep_Freeze]

Yep, but they had a pretty good safety back there to support him.....didn't they.

[theogt]

Dude you know I'm holding you to that, I can't wait to see this.It will happen.

[Deep_Freeze]

It will happen.

Man don't let them talk you into that, we could end up with him standing still over there on our strong side.

;)

[CCBoy]

Yep, but they had a pretty good safety back there to support him.....didn't they.

Woodson and Brock Marion. And Deion at the other corner...

[Deep_Freeze]

Woodson and Brock Marion.

We don't even have a Brock Marion on this team, much less a Woodson right now.

Its really about supply and demand, right now the supply is real low at safety with high demand, while at 3-4 DE the supply is greater and the demand is also lower for a guy with no shown pass rush ability yet.

Sanders>Carr/Marion>Sensabaugh/Woodson>Poole/....Jenkins>Brown

This isn't changing much with Barron. It would help, although...as would a corner in two.

[Aven8]

I'm good with almost all of the defenders not named Kirkpatrick or Gilmore, or Fleener, or Reiff.

I do not want another 1st rd corner, and we do not need a OT in the 1st.

I would rather have a pass rusher over anything, but want something in the front 7. Brockers is just a baby, so how can anybody judge him yet? I remember everybody last year worried if Tyron could add strength and weight, and that he had a lot of upside, but wasn't better them the other OT's right now. How did that work out?

I'm even good with Hightower at 14. I think he's going to be a stud, and leader for anybody that takes him.

[Deep_Freeze]

Well that team was stacked in alot of areas, hard to compare them to us right now. Even Marion made 3 Pro-Bowls, not like we are going to see Sensy there anytime soon, and you putting Woodson and Poole in the same area should be illegal. ;)

Barron would catch us up on that curve though, I just think people really underestimate how bad this secondary really was last year.

I'm not as worried about getting pressure on the QB with Ryan at DC and all his creative blitzes, but he does need protection on the backend that we haven't given him yet.

[speedkilz88]

Woodson and Brock Marion. And Deion at the other corner...
I think Brock came around later. At first they had Ray Horton, Thomas Everett, James Washington which all came from plan b free agency or waivers.

If you want drive block...Silatolu is your man! And Washington's NT could produce some push.

[CATCH17]

Brockers lookin like Rick Ross at the draft.

[CCBoy]

Nope...Brock started at FS.

[Deep_Freeze]

Brock was here from 93-97 (so he was here in 95), 3 time Probowler and an All Pro once, and thats not even mentioning Woodson.

Now we have a bunch of nothing back there.

I know one thing Dog; if we let Philly draft Brockers behind us, we'd better find a stud OL because we don't have an OG that he wouldn't abuse in 1-1.

[bigE79]

.....does philly trade up a couple spots with Arizona to draft Brockers? I doubt it, BUT it was reported as a possiblity a few days ago. PLUS, it would be a double whammy: they get their DT AND they screw US.

[Chuck 54]

I think we're going to find a starter at 14.... Just sit and wait....either a DL, DB, or OL will be there.

I'm praying to hear Tanneyhill and Floyd or some other surprises b4 our pick.
