If we do sign Poe, it seems to me that corner and wide receiver become the priorities in the first two rounds. Not that we would necessarily pass on a defensive linemen, but it certainly wouldn't be priority No. 1.

Kinlaw, Henderson and Safety for the tide is all there at 17, what name will be called?

Henderson easy

Corner is far away the #1 need. I don't want to reach for a bad player but Henderson wouldn't be a reach.

third receiver, young safety, pass rusher, etc are also needs but nowhere near corner

A bona fide third receiver with No. 1 ability would increase the potency of this offense, though. Not saying I'd have a problem going corner. I just hate having to use a first-round pick to replace a young player at that position you let go in free agency. It's almost like treading water.

I wouldn't have paid Byron what he got, but I would have placed the non-exclusive tag on him so that we would have gotten compensation to replace him.

Xavier McKinney.

I have a feeling it'll be Henderson if he's there, though with the announcement of Frederick retiring I'm hope we don't reach for a C.

I'd be shocked if we went that route. Looney and McGovern have plenty of experience at the position, with Redmond being the viable backup.

We have too much draft capital and cap space tied up in the offense to go C in round 1.

According to most draft experts McKinney and Delpit are late first round guys so taking them at 17 would be a reach. I’d go with Henderson

Just read that Fredrick's retirement may be causing the Cowboys to wait on announcing anything with Poe.
