Possible 2nd and 3rd round players - Dallas Cowboys Forum

xwalker · 12-06-2012

This is my list of some players that might be available in the 2nd or 3rd rounds.

Cornellius Carradine
Brandon Jenkins
Corey Lemonier
Michael Buchanan
Chase Thomas

Dline
Sharrif Floyd
Sylvester Williams

Safety
Kenny Vaccaro

Hope this is accurate and Chase Thomas falls through the crack to us in the second rd, "Chase will impact at the linebacker position in any style of defense, but his impact seems to be as an OLB in a 3-4 defense. In this defense, he can be used like Clay Mathews because of his mature pass rushing skills, instincts, football intelligence and the ability to shut down the run on the line of scrimmage. The problem is that Chase is also a very good cover linebacker and could easily play as a OLB in a 4-3 defense. Chase will be a terrific linebacker in a 4-3 defense, but he will be a dominating OLB in a 3-4 defense, close to the line of scrimmage." per the huddle report in other words another Sean Lee/Bruce Carter clone with a Stanford education.

I agree with trading back in the first and getting an extra 2nd rnd pick. I pick as follows:

1.Barrett Jpnes
2.Dallas Thomas
2.Brandon Jenkins
3.Tank Carradine

Macnalty · 12-06-2012

That would not be a bad start to the draft.

IAmLegend · 12-06-2012

Hopefully we can trade back in the first and pick up another 2nd. If that happens, then I'd go:

1. Barrett Jones, G/C/OT
2. Dallas Thomas, OT
2. Kenny Vaccaro, FS
3. Brandon Carradine, DE
4. Bacarri Rambo, SS
5. Stepfan Johnson, RB
6 & 7 - O-Line/D-Line

Interesting. 2 safeties? All of a sudden we would have a ton of depth there.

Sensabaugh
Peprah
Church
McCray
Johnson
Rambo
Vaccaro

Who would make the team next year?

TheCoolFan · 12-06-2012

I doubt they will take a safety. Church and Sensabaugh are locked in for the next couple of years, McCray probably stays because there's no one capable of replacing him on special teams, and they will keep Matt Johnson for at least 1 more year a la AOA

tm1119 · 12-06-2012

1. Warmack
2. Sharrif Floyd/Kawann Short/Sylvester Morris
3. Jenkins/Carradine/Corey Lemonier/Michael Buchanan
4. Christine Michael/Gillislee/Denis Johnson

Take a project WR and OT in rounds 6 and 7.

RS12 · 12-06-2012

Of your list those who might be available and would help most Dallas Thomas and Shariff Floyd.

Leadbelly · 12-07-2012

Nice list. Some underclassmen currently under the radar but will be in that mix if they declare. Some may be end up closer to being first rounders though.

OLB
Kyle Van Noy, BYU (6'3"/240)
-- fun fact: KvN's position coach is Brady 'Batman Shape' Poppinga's brother.

WR
Brandon Coleman, Rutgers (6'5" / 220) rSoph

DE
Re'shede Hageman, Minnesota (6'5" / 310)
-- Switched over from TE in 2011

FS
Ed Reynolds, Stanford (6'2" / 210)
-- Reynolds lost all of 2011 to injury and could be classed a redshirt Soph., but he's draft eligible either way. Great in 2012. Might be the best FS in college.

OL
David Yankey, LT/G, Stanford (6'5" / 305)
Cameron Fleming, RT, Stanford (6'6" / 315)
Xavier Su'a-Filo, G, UCLA (6'4" / 310)

Su'a-Filo did very well vs Star Lotulelei earlier in the year and is a little older. He started at LT as a true freshmen in 2009, then went on a Mormon mission. Played LG this year.

MartinRamone · 12-07-2012

1st round D line or pass rush.

2nd round S and OL

3rd OL

(Using the trade down for an extra 2nd)

Any combo of B.Jones, Chase Thomas, Brandon Jenkins, Jefferson, Bailey, Sly Williams and Ansah would make me very happy as a Cowboy fan.

Manwiththeplan · 12-07-2012

Depends on free agency and on what we do in round 1. Based on your list, and conventional thinking, I'd love it if we could draft one of the NTs in round 1 (star lotulelei will be gone, but Jonathan Hankins or Kwame Geathers may be available) and in round 2 get Jake Matthews and round 3 Travis Frederick to play at RG.

Very interesting list of players.

No guarantee that Church comes back the same.
