We read, see and hear it every year around this time.
"No way that player will still be there at..."
"Player will be long gone by the time we pick"
etc.. etc..
We also get over loaded with fan dream mocks, showing only who we hope to draft.
I would rather see mocks done of the first round only, that included the other 18 teams ahead of us.
Starts to give you a more realistic feel of who might actually be available at 19.
There is always a player that gets pushed down, due to other players moving up.
The relative trend that is always true is edge rushers, QBs, DBs, always work their way up,
DTs, OL usually get a "cusp" push.
Wha5t I refer to as the "Cusp", is that breaking point in a draft, where higher ranked players, perceived higher ranked players, start moving back a few spots.
I believe at 19, Dallas is sitting pretty close to that cusp break, if not directly on the fault line in this years draft.
General opinion is that players like Vea, wont be there at 19, but with edge rushers like Marcus Davenport, and Arden Key moving up, it wouldn't surprise me if Vea were to be that player sitting there at 19 that shouldn't be.
