1st two picks

[cnuball21]

I’m a firm believer that you should take BPA, focusing on the premium positions first (OL, DL, CB)

But if we are going to draft for need, we really need to address LB this year in the first 2 rounds.

Agree. Plug holes in FA and take the best players.

Mazi Smith, who now the Cowboys are asking him to lose weight

Source?

 

[J12B]

Smith is an all pro at LG. Leave him there.

Not sure counting on Bass to then fill the open LG spot is wise.

Why not?

He had a great preseason and he's filled in nicely twice now when needed during the season.

 

[Gambit]

Why is everyone forgetting Asim Richards???

Because he's not getting as many reps as Bass

 

[Beaker42]

32 Ja'Lynn Polk wr Washington
64 Blake Corum rb Michigan

I like these two guys. Polk is from same high school as Dez. Corum is a great runner and smart too.

We’re picking a little earlier now LOL.

 

[Beaker42]

Right - he’s TS’s LT replacement

Yep, and after further review I want totally different players.

Much will depend on free agency but I feel OT in the first is a must and maybe even the 2nd if we address DT and MLB in free agency. RB maybe 3rd round or even 5th would be good. If we keep Cooks at WR, then don't see us taking a WR until 7th or at all. Probably address CB in 3rd though.

biggest need on the OL right now is upgrading Center

 

[Teague31]

Lord no.

 

[Risen Star]

O-line, D-line or D-line, O-line. Then a big LB.

You can always tell those that don't understand the draft when they talk drafting positions in certain rounds.

We're gonna go DL in the first round and then we have to go OL in the 2nd round.

These people aren't worth the time to read.

 

[Creeper]

The Cowboys have to get tougher on both sides of the line. BPA at DT, LB, OL, and possibly edge. Unless someone unexpectedly drop to 24 they have to improve from inside out.

 

[KingintheNorth]

The OL depth of this draft dictates that you can get a starting caliber OL with the 24th pick. However, too many fans will misinterpret that as overall depth and suggest just wait until the 2nd round to get your OL. IMO, that's not at all the case, the OL depth falls off a cliff once you get out of the top 50. At 24, you get a five plus year starter. At 56 you are most likely getting Matt Weletzko. If you're lucky, you may get Zach Frazier.

Position-specific draft strategies are how you get Kelvin Joseph and Luke Schoonmaker.

You almost have to subscribe to a pure BPA strategy in the 2nd because the draft never falls exactly the way you think it will. It doesn't help that the Jones are awful at maneuvering up and down the draft.

Who ya thinking now

 

[rambo2]

Who ya thinking now

I would like Jackson Powers-Johnson center from Oregon and Sweat dtackle from Texas. Whoever we add, we need stud dtackles from the draft or free agency or both. I'll add whatever they do, they need to hit on.

 

[vlad]

two mean LBs please - yes 2. Lord knows we need them.

FA is the way to go for LB.

 

[NoFurtherQuestions]

OL in 1st
LB in 2nd

 

[1942willys]

FA is the way to go for LB.

That would be the best way to go if we did not have a penny pinching idiot running the wallet
