Calling it now, our first round pick is...

[Canada180]

Cold hard facts

Id have to really give it a good thought if Graham was there at 10 or 11

The more tape I watch of the Cowboys and how they ended the 2024 season I get the sense that Egbuka may be the pick. Not sure if that would be at their current spot or with a trade down, but he seems perfect for what the Cowboys are trying to do having their WRs lining up bunched close to the tackle box. They ran a ton of formations where you essentially had 3 slot WRs.

With their 12th they should trade down. Simple, trade down and accumulate more top 100 picks in this strong draft. There are too many needs to settle on a WR at 12. There are 4 great WR available, one will be available in the 20's to draft. If you can accumulate another 2nd round pick by trading down and grabbing a WR, CB and RB with first 3 picks. You do it, its a no brainer.

Its Golden. I think Tet and Jeanty are gone and there's no real debate within the staff.

For the last three years, the Cowboys first round pick has been the guy I absolutely hated and did not want them to draft.

2022: I hated Tyler Smith. The guys I wanted were Tyler Linderbaum or Jermaine Johnson

2023: I absolutely hated Mazi. I really wanted the Cowboys to take Nolan Smith, and would've been happy with LaPorta.

2024: Two of the only guys I disliked, in a completely loaded class, were Tyler Guyton and Darius Alexander. If I were GM, I would have turned down the Lions' trade offer and taken Terrion Arnold.

So clearly, the Jones family reads my forum posts and picks players just to piss me off. If they choose to spite me again this year, our 2025 first round pick will be:

Matthew Golden

For the Joneses reading this thread, I also really don't like Malaki Starks, and think Omarion Hampton would be a big reach in the top 15.

I think you’re 100% correct that it will be Golden.

I think they like Golden more anyway. I feel he gives them attributes that their current receiving corps doesn’t.

Seems to be a good kid and works hard. I've been more about Tmac but am kinda swaying towards Golden.
