I'm only trading up for 2 players, Bailey at 6 or Downs at 9!

In my opinion, Bailey is heads and shoulders the best edge rusher in the class. He checks every box you look for the position and is athletic to drop in coverage if need be. He would complete our pass rush for the position.

Downs plays at the non premium position, but is the ultimate weapon. Perfect fit for that nickel role and most likely would even have the green dot calling the defense, he has next level football intelligence.

Reese, Styles, Delane, Bain aren't worth giving up our precious draft capital for as they all have some questions in their skillsets.

If I cannot get Bailey or Downs, I am hoping for a trade back scenario to take place. Take advantage of the depth in this draft and load up on improving the overall talent on defense.
 
I’d move up to 3 for Reese or Bailey
I’d rather move up to 6 for styles than trade down
I’d move up to 6 or 9 for Downs

I’m not really interested in collecting players - yes we need a lot of them but this isn’t the class to collect players. It’s too weak.. the chances of you hitting on multiple picks even for the players to just become average are incredibly low

Some have Bain over Bailey as an outside edge. You sure about giving up two first rounders for a situational pass rusher at least at the beginning of his career with the Cowboys.

Downs is the best in the class he would be worth it to take at 6 with the right trade.

I loved your trade back scenarios the best. It would be in the best interest for the Cowboys.

Moving up to 6 for Bailey would be a home run. However I don't see anyway he gets passed 4. If Arizona passes, teams are going to blow up Tennessee's phone to move up. Im not even sure Arizona can justify taking Mauigoa over him.

Our talent level is so low in many spots, where I think even adding solid options with improve the unit. Yes, must do a good job on hitting on the picks.

Bailey has the upside of a consistent double digit sacker, that alone makes him attractive.

We collected players in 2009

Good with moving up to 6 for Bailey only if it is the trade where we get 39 back.

I am fine moving up for Downs, Reese, Styles aa long as we meep 20 and 92.

So you’re essentially saying you’re not trading up.

Small trade up makes more sense giving up 93 or trading back from 20 for a lower pick.
