Tony Pauline, a draft insider for Sports Illustrated, wrote the following on his blog at draftinsider.net: Where will the Dallas Cowboys go in round one? Evidently the team is not in love with Prince Amukamara and won’t use the 9th selection on him. This on the heels of sources telling us the team will cut veteran Terence Newman. All signs continue to point to an offensive tackle, specifically one that can play the right side. Dallas then plans to shop the 9th pick and trade down to grab their right tackle. Sources have told us their [sic] is already a plan in place with a team that holds a mid-first round pick if either Blaine Gabbert or Cam Newton are still on the board when Dallas is called to the clock. Right now sources have told us Gabe Carimi sits atop their wish list as they feel he is the only player they feel can quickly move into the starting line-up.
Chris Steuber from CBSSports twittered very early this morning that there might even be three QBs taken with the first eight picks:
HeardThis: If Newton & Gabbert are off the board by No. 8 - as expected - the Titans may take Jake Locker & leave Commanders scrambling.
Mike Lombardi from NFL.com makes a case for why seven out of the eight top teams in the draft have quarterback as one of their top needs. Pat Kirwan, also from NFL.com, is saying essentially the same thing yesterday: There are so many teams at the top of the first round looking at the quarterback class, there's just no way they will all be satisfied. After Cam Newton and Blaine Gabbert are selected somewhere in the top 10 pick, that will still leave at least five teams hoping to find a worthy QB in this draft to solve a big need.
