It wouldn't be just Cox compared to three players. It would be Cox and the #45 that you would be comparing your three players to.
I would definitely take the trade down too.

Unless Luck falls to 14, you take this deal and run. The plane should already be on its way to the dog pound to sign the deal. Announce it on Thursday night.

You'd be comparing Cox to the #22 and #37 pick.
If Cox, who I believe the Cowboys have as a top 10 player, falls to #14, I don't think you should pass on an elite talent to get two good talents.

man I don't care if Fletcher Cox was there, I'd take that. 22 could be Mercilus or Konz, 37 Zeitler?? Man that would be awesome.

Please just stay put and pick BPA. Nothing about recent history suggests the Cowboys can put those picks to good use.

According to the Cleveland Plaon Dealer, the Cowboys and Browns have a deal in place if two of the players the Browns covet are there at #14. The Cowboys would receive 22,37,118 and 211 for 14. They said that Holgrem covets Floyd from ND.

im sorry but i cant believe Cleveland would offer all that without a player exchange ie. Felix or something. or a swap of one of our picks,

IF this is true...and it's a big IF...it would only be on the table IF the player that Cleveland wanted was still available at #14. So no way to do it ahead of time other than verbally.
That said, I've been hearing the love for Floyd coming out of Cleveland for a couple of weeks now, and that they have him rated higher than Blackmon. As such, I've projected them as potential trade down partners IF he's still available.
I hadn't heard anything about a trade with Dallas in particular, though, so could be that Cleveland is just sniffing out possible trade partners for when the clock is actually ticking. That's a whole lot to offer, though. From a trade value chart perspective, the #22 and #37 alone would be significantly more than the point difference. Throwing in two more picks as well just seems unlikely.
I think the 'Boys would be hard-pressed not to take that deal, IF it were available.

No way they're going to take interior O-linemen in both the first and second rounds. Just not happenin'.
One or the other, sure. But not both.

Would you take Mercilus and Zeitler over Cox?
I would. I know some may not, but I'd have no problem with it.

For the sake of getting myself too pumped up for this, I want to see what kind of draft we could potentially have if this trade went through. Using SDogo's Board and selecting players only at, or below their rankings, I came up with a Mock Draft that looks like this:
#22 - Whitney Mercilus
#37 - Peter Konz
#45 - Harrison Smith
#81 - Josh Chapman
#113 - Josh Norman
#118 - LaDarius Green
I like it.
At that moment a voice came over me and said, Look up, get up, and don't ever give up. You tell everyone or anyone that has ever doubted, thought they did not measure up or wanted to quit, you tell them to look up, get up and don't ever give up. - Michael Irvin
