I smell a trade!!!! - Dallas Cowboys Forum

Surley the cowboys are in need of two things right now, S (first goal) & WR (2nd goal). Now, by us having the 42nd pick (2nd round) I am afraid that will not be enough to get a Great player like S-Pool/Bullocks or WR-Clayton/Mathis. They are not too far which means they will not have to give allot to move up. Trade, is in the talks right now as I type!

Did you just equate Mark Clayton and Jerome Mathis?

yes sir, they are both projected to go early in the second round and I do agree Clayton is better but by a hair!

1 - Clayton is long gone, and

2 - you're out of your flippin' mind if you think they're remotely equal.

No offense, but that's crazy talk. The only reason Mathis is even a second round prospect is because he has 4.3 speed. Give him 4.5 speed and he goes in the 5th or 6th round at best.

Isn't that like saying the only reason Emmit should be in the Hall of Fame is because he ran for all those yards. If he ran for only half those yards he wouldn't make it?

4.3 speed is pretty good, I am thinking. I don't know much about the guy, but he must have really bad hands to not be any good with that kind of speed. (Just me ranting, sorry. If the picks went faster, I wouldn't have to entertain myself.)
