I'll throw out 3 names that may slide to the 4th/5th rounds: Quinton Carter of OU (surprised? Well, maybe 3rd round), Jermale Hines of Ohio State, and Will Hill of Florida. (Remember, I said may slide . . .)
BTB: I'm glad I could oblige! In recent years, the Cowboys have looked at good size-speed ratio DBs who, for some reason might not have the best tape--guys like Charles Godfrey, Tracy Porter and, last year, Brandon Ghee and the guy they eventually took, Akwasi Owusu-Ansah--guys who have first- or second-round measureables, but who might fall to the third or later rounds. Do you see any similar players in this year's draft?
Longball: I don't understand why, but Jalil Brown of Colorado has slid (is "has slid" proper English?) and might be available in the 4th - if so, that's excellent value for a big cover CB. The Cowboys have spent quite a bit of time with DeMarcus Van Dyke of Miami, but after he blistered his 40 at the Combine, there may be a lot of teams looking at him earlier than the 5th round.
