I think a good target FS in this year's draft would be Mitch Meeuwsen if we don't want to spend a high pick. He has pretty good coverage skills but is a little on the slow side which drops his stock. There really isn't a true ball-hawk FS in this draft, but there are 3 very good ones in next year's draft which is somewhere we could look as well.

I don't think anything is a MUST need just yet.

We'll have around $20 million in cap space to play around with. We can take care of a bunch of our needs in FA.

I'd like to see us take care of the FS position in FA. Gary Baxter is high on my list.

I just wonder if Davis is more a Roy Will type, and not a good coverage guy or ball hawk. He's got the mini LB size, but I've seen him listed with a 4.62 40. That could a setup for a lot of burnt toast.

But I don't know who the quicker/faster FS's are coming out or how well they've played

The top playmaking Free Safety prospects in my opinion :

Brodney Pool, Okla

Josh Bullocks (junior), Nebraska--my personal choice (3rd round material)
6'0 205lbs 4.55/40, ballhawk, very good in coverage.

Micheal Huff, Texas

Vincent Fuller, Vtech

James Butler--Ga. Tech--Maybe the most upside

I agree exactly with your first two picks. Of course, Dallas needs to work Keith Davis into the mix and Pete Hunter will have an opportunity to fit in somewhere next year as well.
