Sorry if I didn’t make this clearer.
The Cowboys are certain to select Surtain or Horn if they are there.
I wouldn't say anything is certain with them.
Booger likes to make a splash and get some attention and that was delivered to him last year and doing what the media expects him to do with either of those two players is a draft yawn.
If you gave every person covering this draft their top 3 wishes, the most in common wish would be for the Cowboys to trade up for Pitts. The moist talked about player in this draft to the most talked about team is a dream come true.
The majority of the Dallas Cowboys fans, especially the ones that buy the tickets and merch, are follow the ball fans just like the owner.
If they stay at 10 and take one of the corners, where's the buzz in that?
Taking one of the corners or Parsons at 10 is the smart football move, that addresses glaring needs on the team but that is not nearly as exciting as Pitts because he's the most talked about draft pick.
This is Manziel for all the same reasons, excitement, marketability and a sure fire center ring act for Booger's Big Top.
I am not as confident as you are, I am going to have that same weird feeling I had watching that Manziel draft and the tension building with each pick, only this will not take a slong because he's going before the 10 pick. I am just not certain that won't be the Cowboys picking him.
There is one major difference in this draft and that Manziel one. Booger had a room full of people trying to keep him from Manziel. Who's going to do that with Pitts? McC? Moore?
