Tony Jefferson - Dallas Cowboys Forum

Verdict · 01-17-2013

I would target Tony Jefferson in the second round if he lasts that long. I doubt he would make it to our second round pick, but he would be a great value pick in the second round.

I like him too. Good value in the 2nd or even 3rd if he slips. Here are his highlights from this season.

I liked him the few games i watched this year.

But not overly impressed with that highlight video.

I would say 3rd round on Jefferson

not the hitter that i like for a safety, but looks like a sure tackler. might be a great cover safety.

What scares me is the school he plays at.

They always have a DB coming out that goes in this area of the draft and none of them ever amount to anything.

I'd pass until about the 5th round.

How he runs and performs at the combine will be very important for him. He could fall or rise quite a bit.

Although I am an Oklahoma fan, I try to be pretty objective about all players regardless of where they play. I was never high on guys like Derrick Strait, who was a first round pick. I'm not really sold on Landry Jones who may be a first round pick this year. I think he is probably an NFL quality player but I look at him as a career backup QB that can come in and win a few games for you but I'm not sold on him as a franchise QB largely because of his decision making skills.

I personally think Jefferson will be a very good college safety. He will be a great coverage safety with good ball skills and a sure tackler. This is a different type of safety than Roy Williams was. Totally different player. He is much more of a free safety.

Same goes for the OU WR
