***Official Draft Thread Day One***

Martin might push Free of the roster during training camp.

And that could cause Free to up his game to stay on the team

 

[IAmLegend]

Raven or Fins may have taken him though

True. I'm liking the pick more and more. Martin has the chance to be an All-Pro Guard on that left side. And he's versatile enough to play RT if necessary. Good pick, Jerry.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Good pick for the Cowboys. Strengthen the trenches.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

What the hell? So we are putting all our marbles with Romo?

We are screwed, once in a lifetime QB, and we pass him up. What the......

A once in a lifetime QB doesn't slide down this far especially with 2or 3 teams in the top ten that need QB in a bad way.

 

[RonSpringsdaman20]

O-line maybe solid for years to come..
I hope we get a guard prospect or two before the draft is over....

 

[cowboyfan4life2]

it was horrible last year, think it will be worse this year

Yes I do.

 

[DTown214]

What an absolutely sickening pick. You HAVE to go safety there if you don't take Manziel. The two best safeties were on the board and you pass on them for a freaking offensive lineman.... Jerry never fails to disappoint me

 

[DallasEast]

Or confident they can find a QB later on in the draft without reaching.

True, but I expect it will happen in the 4th or later.

 

[EST_1986]

I love Romo but I also happen to realize he is 34 with back problems. When a player like Manziel falls to you you have to take him given Romo's age and health. We will regret it.

We already do

 

[DFWJC]

Johnny is sooooooo overrated

17 teams and counting have passed

O-line maybe solid for years to come..

Our o-line was already solid, we needed defensive help.

 

[Rockport]

Martin will end up playing guard.

 

[mahoneybill]

ALL of this. We gotta protect Romo and open holes for DM29.

There is still plenty of DL's we can still draft.

Proud of JJ for not drafting Johnny Football. I was 99.999999998% sure he would.

Me too. They also did a good job in faking out the war room watchers.

 

[superonyx]

Remember the old days when running backs and WR's and QB's were drafts in the first round.

 

[Iron_Man]

Wow! I am still speechless!!!

 

[Tawney88]

What a great pick for the Ravens.

It seems like they do it every year.

Newsome is a hell of a GM

 

[joseephuss]

Not complaining. I think we could've traded back and got Martin but oh well. I said we'd pass on Manziel if he was there

I don't think too many teams were willing to trade up, so it wasn't a given that Dallas could have made a deal happen to drop back a few spots.

 

[Vintage]

What position is he playing?

 

[SDCowboy]

I was kind of hoping for JF also, but there has to be a reason he's still on the board. That reason my not prove to be true, but some people are making it out like we missed out on some sure bet.

 

[Simba]

Pats fan checking in..

Wow.

Jerry actually went with one of the safest picks..

Dallas has a Oline folks
