Wes Picks the Cowboys' Groceries, Part II: Lots of O-line Options in the 2nd

Today, the National Football Post's draft expert Wes Bunting continues his game of 5-10-15 into the 2nd round, projecting Cowboys draft options if they were to pick 5th in the round, 10th in the round and in the middle of the 2nd:

Cowboys Nation: What if we played this 5-10-15 and we went down one round. Let's say we started around pick 36, 27 and then went 40-42 and then 45-47 or so?


Wes Bunting: In the second round, the guy Cowboys fans may have to hold their breaths for is Gabe Carimi, the tackle from Wisconsin. Some teams view him as a left tackle and I think he could play there, but others view him as a right tackle. I think he gives you Pro Bowl caliber potential as a right tackle.

CN: You've mentioned before that you like him better than you did Phil Loadholt when he was coming out of Oklahoma two years ago.

WB: Oh yeah. I like him. Maybe he goes in the first round, but if you can land him in the 2nd you have a real play maker. At strong safety, you have Clemson's DeAndre McDaniel. Maybe you could pick him at this stage...

McDaniel has not had a very good year.

If we could get Gabe Carimi OT in the early 2nd Round I would do cartwheels to Walmart. LOL That would be awesome.

McDaniel has not had a very good year.

I'm from SC and he was #1 on my wishlist in the preseason.

He's a physical guy that can cover and has great balls skills, but he gets caught out of position a lot - and that has really hurt his stock this year. He really reminds me of Eric Berry though when I watch him play. I like a physical safety that plays with intensity - but I'm also worried about his level of competition playing in the ACC.

This is a good draft to be picking in the top half of the 1st and 2nd rounds. I can see us getting a quality DB and Olinemen right off the bat.

Yeah who wouldn't? Thats why he'll go in the 1st.



Quality Olineman just don't slip in the draft.

You have to get lucky and hope your staff scouts well if you're picking guys in the 2nd round down.



Im thinking we may have got lucky with Sam Young. Can't wait to see him a year from now.

Where's Part I?

I really would be suprised if he goes in the first. Teams generally don't take RTs in the first unless they look like they can play guard as well, and at 6-7, he can't. He definately isn't going before Sherrod or Love due to athletic potential. And Costonzo and Solder will battle him for the 3rd spot, which will liekly be the final one in round 1. I think it's likely 2 out of that 3 are there when we pick.
