Skilled players coming top 3 picks?

[visionary]

With the depth of this draft along the DL and at RB, this would be the yr to fix their run defense and ground game, but is starting to point to them drafting skilled, positional players:

-major buzz that they will be drafting a 1st rd wr
-have brought in all the top running backs
-rumors about Diggs not being ready and a possible June 1st release could mean they are hunting for his replacement

I would spend the whole class on fixing their run defense and run game. Find a stop gap at wr and at cb via fa.

It is not complicated

Trade down to 20-22 for a rd 2 pick

1. Golden or Tet
2a. DT/CB
2b. CB/DT
3. RB
5a. DT
5b. RB

What they don't do is take rb or wr high. It's time to get dak real talent to work with.

He's had that already. Considering the Cowboys lost 9 games by 27 or more last year, the smart play is to build a dominant defense to help keep games more winnable for Dak.

Additionally, there are lots of good RB's in this draft. They don't need to get one in the first two rounds.

It makes total sense. We can't run or stop the run.

So let's draft a WR and a CB in the first 2 rounds.

But they upgraded with Fowler opposite of Micah. He is good for 8+ sacks.

Kneeland is the run defender who will take over for Tank.

Murray / Sanborn are capable of taking over for Kendricks. He was washed out of way too many run plays.

Murray is a downgrade and is a guesser like Jaylon Smith was with zero instincts

I don’t disagree. But it wasn’t like Kendrick’s was Fred Warner

He is aging but still solid, balanced player

Kendrick’s was a reason teams ran on the Cowboys. I remember he made Kalvin Kamara look like young Kamara against the Saints. He couldn’t stop the run or the pass against the running back.
