The 'argument' isn't worth hijacking this thread so I'm not bothering to research it.

I'll just say you're right and leave it at that.

My point was that the Cowboys have an opportunity to acquire a top talent well below where he would otherwise be drafted.

Given the uncertainty of Julius Jones' future in Dallas, I think it would make sense for the Cowboys to take a serious look at drafting him.

You're not completely wrong. Had he been healthy, he would've gone in the first round.

I would spend our 3rd on him ..... if he last that long. He could be a home run hit ........ and i am pretty chancy with anything below the first 2 rounds.

Glad somebody can see what I was getting at.

Thanks.

I thought that's what you meant in the first place. I didn't think you were referring to any particular slot.

Yeah, I guess I'll have to choose my words more carefully....

Can Bush be our Canty this year? Man, I'd take him in the 4th easily. Third round is a little stretch though - Lycra stretch, not spandex.

Coming into this past season, he was widely considered the top running back and I wouldn't discount that because of one injury.

And I feel better about a broken bone healing than I wouldd if it were a major knee injury.

Given Julius Jones' questionable future in Dallas, I think it would be a smart move to get #1 talent in the 4th round.

Gotcha

He seems cranky today, not that it is something out of the ordinary, but he does seem to be looking for a fight.

Maybe losing Brady Quinn in the draft soon is taking it's toll on him.

I'm not even sure we could get him in the third picking so late in the round. But I'd not worry about using it. Where else are you going to get first round talent with a 3rd round pick. If he did fall to the fourth that would be a steal. I don't know if he's going to need that rod out in the future. Likely so. That's not a huge deal but it will take time out of training so its an issue.

You are not likely to find a player of his caliber in day two of the draft. He has talent and should be a player in the NFL. So what if you have to wait until later in the year to use him or even 2008. Dallas has had great success with drafting players who had delayed entry into the NFL.

Personally, I think it's the Julius trade rumors.

When someone posts a line where he says one thing then tries a few posts later to deny he said anything of the sort, I do like to pile on.

I didn't 'deny' anything. And when someone is referred to as a 'leading candidate for the Heisman' I would take that to mean one of if - not the best - at his position.

But that's me.

And I've got a 'pile' for ya if you're interested.

Stash, give it up. You said "WIDELY CONSIDERED THE TOP RB". You trying to say that that does not mean the #1 RB in the college game?

As I said, it's not a big enough deal for me to go 'round and 'round with you about it.

I feel that he was.

My opinion is that he was.

I said that we agreed to disagree.

But you seem to want to try to 'win' something here or to start some lkind of argument about it.

How about actually contributing something relevant to the subject?

If you're able.
