1st Round Bold Predictions

cnuball21 · Jan 21, 2018

What do you think? What could surprise some people?

- Edmunds is the 1st LB off the board

- Hughes will be the 2nd CB drafted after Minkah

- 5 QBs drafted in the 1st

Hughes being the 2nd CB taken would be a surprise...I guess Ward will have to have blown out his ACL at his Pro Day.

I can see Hughes going before McFadden.

I wont be surprised & half way expect All 3 of these things to happen as of right now. Combine could change things but as of now all of those things look very real

L. Jackson goes before Mayfield.

I think Ward is arguably he most natural cover guy in the draft, but all it will take it one team to like Hughes additional 2 inches and few pounds.

I'd bet my bank account this doesn't happen, but hey that's what the thread is about!

Edmunds will wow at the under ware olympics so it could easily happen.

Yeah, I thought the point was to make a prediction with some juice to it.

I hope and pray that the cowboys do their homework on Allen and Mayfield because if either of them is there at 19, we better take them or pass on them because we know they can or can't be franchise QBs and not be caught flat footed like with Mo

Teams will be jumping from 20-30 to jump interview the teens to get one ☝️ if the QB. I think most will go before the 20-25 picks which would have Qb comprise 25 percent of players taken before the 25 pick.

I think there's a pretty good chance Darnold, Rosen, Allen and Mayfield are all gone before we even pick.

Interested to see who that 5th guy is. I sure as heck wouldn't spend a first rounder on Lamar.

One of the top QB's (you know a QB that retains down-the-field accuracy, solid footwork, & can deliver the ball meticulously under pressure in the pocket) will unexpectedly slide to Jerry at 19, and in Jerry''s infinite wisdom -- he will trade out of that spot -- reassuring everyone that Dallas is completely & absolutely set at the QB position.

Franchise QB's are a rarity, thus constantly upgrading & creating competition at the QB position is a must.

Dak just completed his 2nd full season as a pro, and was able to help the team get to 9-7 with several of the teams best players missing time.

He has to progress and get better but a QB in the first would be insane to me.

KingintheNorth · Jan 21, 2018

I like Edmunds as well but I'm okay if his meteoric rise allows Roquan Smith to slip within reach for us.

I don't know how bold this is but I will say that no one we are talking about right now will go in the 1st round. Haasan Reddick from last year comes to mind.

jay94 · Jan 21, 2018

Six, you heard it hear first, qbs go in the first round, not sure if it's a record, but qbs fly off the board, and believe will be even more the case than ever this year.

I'm sure I won't get a lot of people agreeing with me on this, but based off what we have on our roster already I'd rather have Edmunds than Smith.

And I'm not sure about these boards, but pretty much everyone on the old DC.com boards were in love with Reddick last year. A lot of us were crossing our fingers he would even make it to the COwboys pick.

Who will be the 5th and 6th!?!?!?

Irvin88_4life · Jan 21, 2018

I'm going to say Miller is first receiver taken leaving Dallas with Ridley or Sutton. But instead we draft Baker Mayfield
