Football Outsiders forecasts great draft haul for Cowboys - Page 3 - Dallas Cowboys Forum

I do not see Cromartie falling to us. The others I can see happening. Not the draft that I would put together but I would be happy with it.

I would love this draft

just say no to JStew and Talib.

or the Texans. I'd still take Talib w/ one of our 1st (preferably w/ the 28th overall).....

I'd be stunned if we got all three of those players at those spots. Cromartie is likely in the top 2 corners picked, a position that rises come draft day and so he's likely not to fall out of the top 15. I actually think Devin Thomas goes way higher than #28, perhaps the Bills snatch him up. Them and the Vikes seem really interested in him. Johnson is plausible in the second round, but I think he goes early in the second. His speed is too much to ignore and he's not just a speedster as he can catch, run and do kickoffs.

Nah, I hate that draft.

Yeah hate it! (Because, I have learned we never the draft I would covet, so I'm going to hate this one so as to not jinx it)

Couldn't have said it better.

If you look at the whole FO draft, you realize how nuts this is. They have one CB - one - going before 22. If the draft really gets to 22 with only one CB gone, one of the following will happen:

1. JJ will trade down, still get one of the CBs and add a real nice pick (the optimist in me).
2. JJ will reach for someone ridiculous, causing mass suicides among Cowboy fans (the pessimist in me). Last year, I would have predicted a TE or LB in this spot, but with Parcells gone, a raw WR seems more likely.
