For me, a pet cat is dependent on where he is available. I really like Caraun Reid in the 4th, but I wouldn't like him in the 2nd.

I like most of the players on your list. Trai Turner is way underrated, IMO. NFLDS has him rated as a 7th or UDFA. I think he will be a starter after a year of NFL coaching.

I'm not a fan of Jeffcoat or Michael Sam. I just don't see much quickness in Sam.

1st
OLB/DE Anthony Barr If he falls to #16.
WR *Mike Evans If he falls to #16
DT Aaron Donald Can they trade down and still get him?

2nd
WR *Kelvin Benjamin Doubtful to fall this far, but maybe.
OG *David Yankey Reminds me of Frederick. Poor combine, but very good player.
OT Morgan Moses High Upside.
OG *Xavier Su'a-Filo Solid player.
DE *Scott Crichton Underrated, IMO.

3rd
RB *Tre Mason I probably would draft a RB here, but he would be worth it.
DE Marcus Smith Maybe the best option for Weak Side DE.
DT *Kelcy Quarles Underrated, IMO. Could play 1 or 3 tech.
WR *Martavis Bryant Fast with good size.
OT Billy Turner Raw, small school LT but nasty, smooth athlete. RT or OG.
OG Brandon Thomas Quick, strong, solid player.
OG Dakota Dozier Smaller school LT. Good power and quickness for OG.
FS Terrence Brooks True FS type.

4th
DT Dominique Easley Maybe the #1 DT is not injured. Mental makeup is a question mark and 2 ACL injuries.
OLB Telvin Smith Small but quick and very good college player. The 2nd is too early, but if he falls.
CB Stanley Jean-Baptiste Big CB with decent speed.
CB Keith McGill Big, long armed CB with good speed.
DT Justin Ellis Small school version of Lous Nix. Very quick for his size.
WR Kevin Norwood Very solid WR with big hands and decent speed and good size.

5th
CB E.J. Gaines Fast.
DT Caraun Reid Playing at Princeton pushes him lower than his talent deserves.
RB *Isaiah Crowell Very impressive RB with some character questions. Ranking varies from mid rounds to UDFA.
CB Antone Exum Big CB. Would be higher but coming off injury.
DE James Gayle Excellent athlete.
OG *Russell Bodine Very Strong and can player OC or OG.
DE *Aaron Lynch Very high upside physically. Has character issues. Weight has varied from 270 to 245.
DT Calvin Barnett Very strong with good quickness and high motor. Nasty.

6th to UDFA
RB *De'Anthony Thomas Very quick. Good returner and pass receiver.
WR L'Damian Washington Big and fast.
OG Kadeem Edwards Would probably be rated higher most years, but OL is loaded in this draft. Good size, quickness, arm length.
FB Trey Millard Unique player. Good fit as a modern style FB/HB. Excellent pass receiver and good athlete.
OG Spencer Long Coming off season ending injury pushes him down in the draft. Solid player.
WR Dri Archer Fast. Excellent returner.
DE Ben Gardner Not the smoothest athlete, but penetrates into the backfield often. Primarily a 3-tech, but lined up all over from 0-tech NT to DE in a 4 man line.
FS *Jonathan Dowling Tall with long arms and decent speed.
QB Jeff Mathews Tall, strong arm and intelligent which is a good combination. Played at Cornell.
OG *Trai Turner I have no idea why he is ranked this low. Solid OG for LSU.

Please email this list to valley ranch.

I wish the Cowboys had more picks this year. I really feel that this draft is loaded with talent, although it's not really loaded at the DL positions.

 

[egn22]

No one here seems to be interested in Martavious Bryant. 6'4" 200 lbs. Projected to go in the 3rd or 4th round. I hope we get him.
