Happy draft day!
I heard both Jerry and Stephen state, if the defense stays the same, they expect improvement. Many young prospects are expected to take on larger roles. It appears they are banking on Dan Quinn as the teacher.
When you look at the 30 visits, which usually gives us a road map, the majority of the defensive players are more day 3 prospects or undrafted free agents. Jordan Davis was the only expected 1st rd prospect, where we saw 2 DT's, Sam Williams as day 2 players, but the rest were all day 3 guys.
3 Top receivers, 2 top Guards, 2 1st rd Tackles, 3 top TE's
I've heard from a few different insiders that the Cowboys want to reshape their offense in this year's draft. They want to get more physical and mentally tough.
I don't think it was a coincidence nor just a cap cutting move when the team decided to trade Amari Cooper, release Collins and allow Connor Williams to walk. They were part of the problem, no matter if it was on or off the field. They want to draft dogs, with an edge.
Based on the clues, my prediction is no defensive players until day 3. They believe they are covered enough at Edge, but not at Guard, WR and TE which will be the 1st 3 positions addressed barring any trades.
