While I do feel better about this draft class now, a few days after the fact. I do still have questions - like alot of us. Smith, as I have said before, during and after was absolutely the right pick and will be for years to come. Left or right tackle, lets leave that up to the coach's to figure out, (right to start and maybe shifted over after the first year or two). Carter, Im still out on - bigger needs I thought. Murray - I have grown into this pick, maybe more of a need than we all realised.
Harris is the pick I love, I wanted Greg Salas out of UH for this roll (slot) but Harris is a great pick and I am really happy with this move. The rest, will leave that up to the team to figure out - here is my question though -
We still have alot of holes, and as the highest payroll in football now, how many FA can we realistically bring in ? Safety is a must. Another corner ? Maybe not. DE is also a must I think. But, now we will certainly get into a bidding war for any free agents, as we are not the only team that did not address this position. What about a right guard ?
So I see we need at least 2 starters, guard and safety. Plus the resigning of our own FA's - which won't be cheap. Do we resign all 3 of our DE's, or 2 and a FA.What about Sensy ? I said during the draft that I thought this draft was feeling like the 09 debacle, after the fact, I don't feel that way at all. We made good strides I feel, and will eagerly watch to see what else we do. We will be a stronger team for sure, one more good draft should propell us to superbowl contention, by itself this draft does not. But I think we are moving in the right direction, and Dallas is today a better team because of this draft. Just my 2 cents at this time...
