Win only scouts at TCU pro day, this tells me they're there to look at Verrett.

I was going to say it's most likely Verrett.

Verrett would have to be a consideration if available in the 2nd. Really good player.

He is 5-9. I would be very surprised to see the Cowboys draft a 5-9 CB in the 2nd round.

5'9 but had the 3rd highest vert of any DB at the Combine. Also the 2nd fastest 40. His arm length isn't special but for a frame of reference, his arms are actually 3/8" longer than Darqueze Dennard's. The athletic numbers are off the charts, and the game film is (apparently... haven't spent time on him myself) incredible. I read that he drew somewhat of a one-on-one matchup with Odell Beckham Jr., who I love, and held him to 1 catch.

So even with CB being a non-need, I'd say he's worthy of the 2nd rounder.

and miss out on cornering (no pun intended) the market on the "undersized yet scrappy" CB?

I would hate it if we drafted a CB anywhere prior to the 5th round or later

Dont let risen star read the blog on espn dallas which says the Cowboys are interested in Verrett. Alot of scouts saying if he was 3 inches taller he was a top 10 talent. Maybe coming off a torn labrum he lasts to 48

 

[SportsGuru80]

Verrett is worth a 2nd round pick.

 

[Gaede]

Verrett is worth a 2nd round pick.

Absolutely.

But the Cowboys don't like short players.

 

[casmith07]

I think if we are able to address OT or DT in the first, I would be absolutely fine with Verrett if he lasts to our 2nd rounder.

He's an immediate upgrade over both BW Webb and Sterling Moore. We would have four strong CBs on the roster and the ability to let Brandon Carr or possibly Morris Claiborne walk if they don't work out long term.

Starters would be a veteran Scandrick and Verrett, with hopefully a developed BW Webb as the nickel CB and another veteran or draft pick in the 4/5 spots.
