[funkytown]

Best player out of this draft? - Tavon Austin

Major Trades?- Maybe not veterans, but there will be teams trading up from the 2nd round into the bottom of the 1st for QB's.

Biggest Bust?- Barkevious Mingo

Lock for the Cowboys?- Stansly Maponga

Player we should have drafted but won't?- Alec Ogletree. He wont be on our board due to his DWI stuff. Will be available at 18, but we pass. I think he turns into a good player somewhere. Giants? Bears?

Draft at 18? -Yes. No trade up or down. Someone will fall to them. Warmack, Cooper, Richardson. If not they take Vacarro or Fluker. Wild card pick: Sylvester Williams

 

[BAT]

Best player in the draft: Star Lotulelei, Chance Warmack, Tavon Austin

Major Trade: More than likely the Niners who have multiple firsts; But Cowboys SHOULD trade Anthony Spencer before/during the draft - playing him at SDE/5 tech is a waste, especially if he is called on to 2 gap more than 50% of the time

Biggest Bust: Margus Hunt, but I'm rooting for him since Cowboys like him

Lock for the Cowboys: got me

Player Cowboys should draft but won't: Manti Te'o - hard working playmaking leader type and perfect fit as a Tampa 2 MLB with ability & anticipation to cover the deep middle seam while Lee and Carter cover the middle to their respective sidelines; Carter has the physicality and speed to cover TEs as SLB while Lee as WLB would be free to seek and destroy

Will Cowboys stay at 18: Depends on which player/what trade is available

Wild card pick: Tavon Austin (no visits with Cowboys)

If Cowboys do not trade & pick per recent drafting trends then this is my predicted draft:


1 OG/C Jonathan Cooper
2 DT Kawann Short
3 FS Phillip Thomas
4 LB Sio Moore
5 RB Knile Davis
6 WR Josh Boyce

 

[9darter]

Who will be the best player out of this draft? Cooper if you value OGs or one of the WRs not named Austin.

Will there be any major trades, if so, who? Possibly, I don't care about that.

Who will be the biggest bust? Ansah.

Who is your one absolute lock that the Cowboys will get(doesn't matter which round) Not an absolute lock, but let me say Vaccaro.

Who is the one "we should have drafted" player for dallas?(A player you know we won't take but should) Rambo.

Do we draft at 18, move up or move down? Draft at 18.

[Gaede]

Best player: Star

Who is the one "we should have drafted" player for dallas?(A player you know we won't take but should) Barrett Jones

Do we draft at 18, move up or move down? Trade Down, Jerry is on record saying he wished he had more picks for this draft

This is my predictions!

 

[Idgit]

It's interesting how many people think the best player in this draft is going to be an OG in a year where we need an OG.

Good thread, btw.

Who will be the best player out of this draft? Shariff Floyd.

Will there be any major trades, if so, who? SF, for Tavon Austin. You can bet a few teams trade into the late teens and twenties for QBs at some point, too.

Who will be the biggest bust? Geno Smith.

Who is your one absolute lock that the Cowboys will get (doesn't matter which round) Le'Veon Bell.

Who is the one "we should have drafted" player for dallas?(A player you know we won't take but should). Tough one. I'll go with Margus Hunt, just because he's got a high boom:bust factor and plays a position of relative need.

Do we draft at 18, move up or move down? Draft at 18.

 

[JackWagon]

Who will be the best player out of this draft? Warmack
Will there be any major trades, if so, who? SF move up for WR
Who will be the biggest bust? Ansah
Who is your one absolute lock that the Cowboys will get? RB probably Bell in RD2
Who is the one "we should have drafted" player for dallas? Rambo for Georgia
Do we draft at 18, move up or move down? Move down ... JJ never stays put.

 

[ABQcowboyJR]

best player: matt barkley

biggest bust: eric fisher

Interesting, i think Fisher is gonna be a great pro.

Best player: Dion Jordan

Biggest bust: Joeckle

Lock for Dallas: Le'veon Bell

 

[Tejano15]

I predict lots of butthurt when we don't draft an OG in round one.

I won't be but I do expect OL in one of the 1st 3 rounds. Center may even be a better selection. Brian Schwenke, David Quessenberry, Barrett Jones, if we come out with one of those 3 and we miss out on the Big 5, I will be fine.

Obviously, Cooper and Warmack would be my 1st choice.

 

[Rack]

biggest bust: eric fisher

you really think so? I think he'll be one of the top 5 players in this draft.

 

[RS12]

I predict lots of crappy drafting from Jerry Jones.

I predict many live shots of Jerry working the phones. Anybody on the other end?

Best player in the draft? Star

Trades? Oakland is lock to move down. They have 20 holes and no picks. I just hope they dont find a sucker in Jerry.

Bust? Geno Smith

Cowboy lock? Boyce

Should have drafted but wont? A top rated OL with value

Trade up or down? I think the two guys they absolutely love are Lane Johnson and Richardson. Johnson requires top 5, probably Oakland at 3, I hope not. Richardson would be between 12-15 IMO. Could happen, how could Jerry resist his mug all over prime time TV>

 

[TheSport78]

Who will be the best player out of this draft?

Sharrif Floyd

Will there be any major trades, if so, who?

Chargers trade up with Cleveland for OT Lane Johnson and Falcons trade up for TE Tyler Eifert.

Who will be the biggest bust?

Ezekiel Ansah

Who is your one absolute lock that the Cowboys will get(doesn't matter which round)

Le'Veon Bell

Who is the one "we should have drafted" player for dallas?(A player you know we won't take but should)

Giovani Bernard. The next MJD/Ray Rice.

Do we draft at 18, move up or move down?

I think we trade down because both guards and Richardson will be off the board. Trade down with Minnesota and select DT Sylvester Williams.
