Cowboys on the clock....

[jorgefares]

Cowboys on the clock, just imagine that Cooper (OG), Fluker (RT), Richardson (DT), and Vaccaro (S) still there....who should be the pick?, to trade down is not an option.

Who may fill the biggest need for Dallas?

Personally I pick D.J. Fluker, just because Free or Parnell simply can not start at RT. In other possitions there are some options, not ideal but we have more alternatives.

 

[Chuck 54]

BPA on the board....that would not be Fluker.
Richardson or Cooper, IMO.

I'd draft Cooper over Fluker for one reason, the interior of the offensive line is a complete disaster, ofcource the whoile offensive line with the exception of Smith needs replacing...

 

[Woods]

In this order for me,

Richardson
Cooper
Vaccaro, and then
Fluker

of the players you mentioned.

You need to review the All-22 on Parnell. He has proven more at RT than either Church or Matt Johnson have at Safety and is more talented than anyone they have at the interior OL spots.

It is highly questionable if Fluker can handle pass-protection at RT in the NFL.

 

[TheRomoSexual]

Richardson is slightly higher on my board, but I'd certainly be happy with Cooper.

 

[DBOY3141]

Cooper hands down. We need an upgrade at every interior position. Cooper can play both guard and center.

Fluker is moving up the boards, and some are thinking of moving him to guard. He is a good nasty player, he may be a little slower then a couple of other players but if he upgrades the position we need to take him. These coaches get paid to coach and to make adjustments to their personal, so I for one wouldn't be upset if he is picked. (As long as he is considered an upgrade at either T or G)

 

[DFWJC]

You should make this a poll.

BTW, it would be a tough call for me between Cooper and Richardson, but right now I'm leaning toward Cooper. I think there could be some decent DT options at 47....maybe even Short.

No way I'd consider Fluker or Vaccaro with those two available.

 

[jterrell]

for me....

1) richardson -- pro bowl talent imho. (8-14 in value imho)
2) cooper -- also pro bowl talent but at og. (15-20 in value imho)
3) fluker -- solid starting rt who may move to og after a few years. phil loadholt caliber guy.. 20-25 value imho
4) vaccaro -- solid safety who is comparable to sensabaugh. good man coverage skills, not a great ballhawk or zone guy. 5 INTs for college career... (Earl Thomas had 8 as a redhsirt soph)30-38 in value imho

** pro bowl level talent for me means thay have comparable skillsets and college careers to current or former pro bowlers. does not mean they walk in day 1 and display a pro bowl worthy game. the ONLY rookie i believe does that is Tavon Austin and that is as a special teams guy.

I haven't looked at Parnell enough to have an opinion but I agree about Flucker. There's talk of moving him inside. He needs to be in the right system. I know I don't want him at all. There are better players for us all over the first few rounds.

 

[TheSport78]

If Dallas takes Fluker over Cooper, I'm absolutely done.

With that being said, there's no scenario where they would take Fluker over Cooper.

At OG, his upside could surpass Warmack; however, I don't think he would be ready to start at OG on day-1.

 

[Tejano15]

I have seen several mocks that have had this happen and almost all of them have us taking Richardson over all players.

In this scenario, if Dallas is really looking for more picks because they really like this draft they could slide down to the Rams who would target Vaccaro, and they want to jump in front of Cincy. The Cowboys would still get one of these guys with their pick and add a pick.

Cooper would be my choice if we stayed at 18.

 

[Idgit]

In this order for me,

Richardson
Cooper
Vaccaro, and then
Fluker

of the players you mentioned.

That's my list, too. Though, I'd be considering a trade down before Fluker if the other three were gone.

Be very careful of under-rating Fluker.

The last few guys who were supposedly too slow to block at RT have been more than fine at the position. Andre Smith and Phil Loadholt are perfect examples.

They may not be studs but they start for great OLs and really push piles.

I know everyone wants to pin Dallas as this lightweight ZBS OL but hogwash. You need OL who can win one on one battles regularly at the LOS and that means powerful dudes.

If you gave me Warmack and Fluker on the right side I might need a TE over there to help pass block some but I guarantee you I'd pick up 3rd and 1 like the 92 Cowboys.

I just can't resist players like Richardson. He has to be the pick, even if he's not the right kind of guy or all that nonsense. He is easily a top 5 player in this draft.

Cooper is a rare OG talent. Perfect pick also.

Fluker? He might be a good OG, but I want no part of him as an OT.

Vaccaro? Not at 18.

 

[Zimmy Lives]

Cooper with Richardson a close second.

Cooper can be a stud at guard or center. If he is there the Cowboys have to take him over anyone else on your list.

agree with you and copenhagen cowboy

i go back and forth between cooper and richardson but if one of them is there, we better not get cute

 

[egn22]

Cooper. I'd prefer a full time starter over a DT that will be in a rotation.
Nothing against Richardson at all, but the idea of having a 1st rd guard creating holes for Murray seems too good to be true.
