So Who Do We Draft at #27/#28?

[Oh_Canada]

I go BPA at any of these positions: tackle, safety, wr, defensive end and maybe corner.

Personally I hope it is the tackle position, but it would be nice for Romo to have another wr with speed because they don't have many burners on the outside.

LOL, Sean Taylor was 10x the collegiate player Mays is. Yeah STaylor got off to a slow start in the pros, but you should really go back and watch some U of Miami games or at the very least look up his stats

Best idea you ever had, Bob.

Love this guy's profile.

I'm a big fan of kids who play in major conferences against great competition but come from the smaller, undermanned programs. Like players from, say, Mississippi State or Vandy in the SEC or Purdue or Northwestern in the Big 10. If they can stand out on bad teams, they'll usually be really good when they get better players around them.

Anyway, I really like Walton. Wonder what he'll measure and weigh at the combine. Either way, all scouts have to do is look at how he fared against all-time bad *** Mr. Suh.

And smell that on Mays? Yes, it's the stench of Laron Landry.

probably 6'3" 305

I'm just sick of Gurode at C. Walton is an Academic All American. We need a smart player there.

I feel the same way maybe we can pawn Gurode off on someone else but we need more awareness from the C position.

Seeing that we might not see Felix Jones at KR anymore, we might need to address the situation. I expect to see FJ as the full time RB now.

That being said I'd like to see us draft a playmaker type who we can groom into a FT position, but while he is waiting in the wings he can contribute to ST in the way that Harvin did this year.

I really really like this kid Mardy Gilyard from Cincy.

Thanks for making my point Mardy. we could use this kid.

I'd be very happy with that pick. We could either trade or release Marion Barber. We could make Felix Jones the starter and let Choice and Spiller battle it out for the backup spot. Also, Spiller is one of the best kickoff and punt returners in the draft. We have been looking for an elite kickoff and punt returner for way too long. He would fill that role. The other thing is that if Felix gets hurt, then Miles Austin will be the only proven player on our offense with great speed. And when you have an offense that gets a lot of penalties, you need those big plays to get you some easy points. A Felix/Choice/Spiller combination would keep defensive coordinators up all night trying to figure out how to slow them down. Spiller returning kickoffs and punts would be a huge upgrade. I don't know if the Cowboys would take him, but I think he would help this team more than an offensive guard would. Besides look at it this way. If Jerry doesn't draft an offensive guard in the first round and he does well then it won't be something that he gets blasted over as much as if he passes over Spiller and he becomes a star in NFL. An explosive star running back can make all of the difference when you are trying to get over the hump. Last, but not least, Spiller might be the best player available at that pick and I believe in usually taking the best player available.
