He's not fast enough. He looked downright slow at the combine...real slow. I'd rather have a guy like *gulp* Meriweather.

I'll take the trade down over Nelson and Ginn.

What happened to us being high on Meachem?

I'm simply passing along Matt Mosley's take.

He had a rather contentious departure from DMN and is working hard to get the Cowboy's draft angle covered. Obviously the DMN has a renowned draft guru in Goose on staff.

MY guys is Meachem.

Mosley is reporting Dallas loves Nelson and feels they can go WR in round 2.


My positions of need would go:

1. NT/DT -- pass rush type to spell Fergie.
2. WR -- prefer big guy with good hands and great route-running, speed desired but not required
3. MLB -- must be able to cover and read plays or need not apply
4. FS -- must be capable of man coverage, history as ballhawk or CB preferred.
5. CB -- ballhawk with great agility and quickness.
6. QB -- need 3rd Qb who cna be 2nd next season. early day 2 type would be perfect.
7. OL -- A big fatty to put on the PS would be nice. You can occasionally hit big on these guys.
8. OLB

I've seen people rank him as high as a top 10 selection..and now somehow he's falling. He can't fall in my eyes when I've felt all along he was a bottom of the 1st rounder. At least I'm consistant.

I'm glad someone's sticking to their guns AND taking a realistic approach to Ginn's draftability. Each year, only a handful of players are locks to be a 'top five' or 'top ten', etc., pick. These are the Peyton Mannings and Reggie Bushes each draft. These guys will not drop because they have practically zero question marks against them. That's not the case with Ginn. He may go in the top 15. He may drop to 22nd or below. It's just not a certainty in his case.

So if Demarcus gets seriously hurt, then what?

You rely on a potential first year full time starter (Carpenter)?

You rely on an aging DE/OLB coming off of an Achilles Tendon rupture?

Phillips could get creative and move Akin to OLB but I'd rather not see it come to that. If a pass rusher is best available, you take him.

I hope Spencer, Woodley, Moses, or Johnson is within reach at some point in the early second. Even Wade's creativity in his 3-4 will be exposed without a pass rush.

No thanks..

you really cannot draft on fear of someone getting hurt unless they have a clear record of injuries. Ware has been stout- Ellis only ever had one serious injury before. Carp is probably the guy that would step up if Ellis cannot come back.

I do too, but, I doubt that he will. I'm not sure the Boyz should pick him at 22 because there are other needs...but...?

I want a nasty NT or Guard...but, I don't follow the draft much, so I don't know who would fit MY NEEDS!

As long as the Boyz go offense for a change, that will suit me just fine!

Ginn is pretty much a feast or famine guy as regards WR- he will either be VERY good or not good at all. To me it all comes down to his return skills- if he really is great then take him.

Then take him.

It's not a question.

Look at the videos.

His six touchdowns on combined kick returns tied an NCAA career record.
