Is it really honest? The hardest part of doing a redraft is that you know exactly when every player was taken. So, for example, you can afford to not take a corner in the second round because you know Adebo will be available with our third-round pick. Redos are easier because of that.

For what it's worth, I would have traded with Chicago (like the Giants did), and because of that I assume the compensation would have been the same (20th, 164th, 2022 1st, 2022 4th ,,, maybe because our pick was higher, we would have gotten more, but I don't know that and the value the Bears gave the Giants more than covered the difference). Then, I would have taken Barmore at 20. Knowing what I know now, it would not have been necessary to take him with that pick.

The concept of a "draft redo" seems profound to me. In a "redo" are we drafting with the benefit of knowing how the original draft went? OR are we going back in time to redo the draft? It seems just going back in time would just get us the same results. So, if we are drafting with the benefit of knowing how the original draft went, it means everyone else drafting has this same beneficial knowledge. In that scenario, there is still no guarantee you get the players you want because you have others drafting ahead of you refiguring their picks too. A definitive list of preferred draft picks is impossible for that reason.
If you go back in the past... the present day you left from becomes your past. And that past that you've traveled to then becomes your present day. And you can't change your past (that you traveled from) when you're in your present day (that you traveled too).

Smart Hulk said that.

That’s that’s why I still selected guys where I had them originally and told others to be honest, but you know most can’t. In all honesty I would’ve traded up twice in the early second to get Barmore and one of the top 3 safeties. So basically I woulda came away with parsons Barmore Holland/mohrig and would try and package to come up again in the 3rd to get adebo leaving not much left for the later rounds but I’m bigger on quality than quantity

Good fun.
But we all know this is impossible, as we wouldn't know how long each player would last until after the act.

Taking players earlier than where they were drafted is fair, and I think you are trying to be honest with your redo, but it's really difficult to be completely honest. During the draft, you wouldn't know if Barmore or Holland or Moehrig was going to drop to your pick. At what point would you have traded up to get them? Would you have traded up into the first for Moehrig since you don't know if he would make it to the second? Same with Barmore? Or would your plan been to only trade up if one of them made it to the second? Those are things that have to be figured out independent of where the players were taken to have a true, honest redo.

I don't understand why posters can't just roll with the thread topic.
Of course, we can't change the draft. But the OP simply asked how would we redraft.
What's so hard about answer the question or refraining?:huh:
Because we posted how we would have re-drafted. Pretty simple.

Probably should have a running thread during the draft where you make the pick while the Cowboys are on the clock. That would have everyone's picks are on record in one place and it's not a hindsight redo.

We have to assume no trades other than the trade the Cowboys made with the Eagles or this doesn't work. How can I say for example, I would have taken the Chicago deal without knowing if that deal or any other deal was available. Or, what about trading up in round 3 to take McNeill or Milton Williams? Was that deal available? Also, we now know how the draft played our so we know which players dropped into the later rounds. That's cheating. So just looking at the board where the Cowboys were drafting here is how I might have done it.

12. Slater OL - but I would have tried like heck to trade down. I think Slater helps the OL more than Parsons helps the defense. It is a close call but I would put Slater in at LG for now and if Collins' hip is a problem he can play right tackle.
44. Joseph CB - Over Asante Samuel because of size and speed.
75. Surratt, Chazz LB - Best rated DP on the board at that point IMO and too soon to take offense.
84. Odighizuwa DT if he was available at 84. If not then I might have jumped at Cox in this position.
99. Melifonwu CB - With the OL problem address I keep going defense. CB depth is important too. I might take Ambry here because of his speed over Melifonwu.
115. Jabril Cox LB -have to take him here. Best value.
138. Tyree Gillespie S - Not the biggest safety but he has a lot of speed and I like a lot of speed in the secondary. I want QBs to worry about the range of my DBs when they throw downfield.
179. Simi Fehoko WR - I watched his pro-day I I was thoroughly impressed. I wanted this guy and he is available at 179.
192. Jaylen Twyman DT - He had an excellent 2019 season if I am not mistaken. Plus, I like really strong guys in the middle of the line - on both sides of the ball. This guy did 40 reps of the bench press which tells me he has great upper body strength and is stronger than most OGs and Cs. I hate hearing "this guy or that guy needs to get stronger in the offseason.
226. Tonga, Khyiris DT - Another big strong DT. He is redundant with Twyman but he is also a late 7th round pick. I am hoping one of them works out. If both do then I have two guys I sub in on short yardage downs to absolutely stuff the middle while my LBs get a clean shot at the ball carrier.

I am being honest here based on the board and not knowing the Cowboys plans for revamping the defense. These are not the guys I wanted necessarily. Most of the guys I wanted went a pick or two before the Cowboys drafted like Surtain, Moehrig, McNeill/Williams, and so on. I loved Anthony Schwartz going into the draft and thought I would select him at 115. When he was picked at 91, I was a little surprised, but it happens every draft. Then Derrick Barnes went at 113, another one of my favorites, which was a little early for him. Tommy Togiai went at 131, and Jacoby Stevens at 224.

Given the Cowboys apparent plans to change the way they play defense, I think they did a pretty good job drafting where they were. Perhaps they could have been a bit more aggressive moving up for certain players, but when revamping a defense perhaps volume is more important that quality.

LOL...........cmon, no one takes Osi in a redo.

Contrary to popular belief the only reason Kazee was probably even available was because of injury. He doesn't have a career of a jag. If Moehrig has the career Kazee has that would be considered a very good pick. Kazee can at least say he lead the league in interceptions...

I'm not saying I would've had a issue with Moehrig because I wouldn't have. But I also understand he wasn't good enough to start here.
Yaessss! (lil' wayne voice) lol:lmao2::hammer:

Notice I took him at 84 and not 75. The fact is, when you look at who is available at 84, without taking into consideration when other players were taken after the Cowboys pick, Osa is probably the best defensive player on the board at that point. Since I took Slater as 12, it would have been too soon to look at offensive line, or a player like Ben Cleveland who I think is a beast. They could replace Connor Williams with Cleveland and gain strength at the point of attack but lose some blocking ability as a pulling guard. I suppose Browning could have been the pick there, but I took Surratt earlier and I have a target on Derrick Barnes in the 4th or 5th round. I never expected him to go early in the 4th but apparently Detroit loved him too. For me, the problem in the 3rd was McNeill and Milton Williams getting taken ahead of the 75th pick. That was a bummer.
