Does anyone else find it odd that these are the only two non DL/DB's on Dallas's official visitor list ( excluding local's)

What does it say about the interest in these two particular players?

Good point.

Either would be a great option for Dak to have.

My guess would be Curtis would be a second round target. JuJu a 3rd round target. I dont see either lasting, but either one would be excellent value. Samuel has been getting some late first round talk

On a trade back I could see Samuel in the mid second. Don't like it but I could see it. Will be very surprised if we take a WR before day 3.

JuJu Smith in the 3rd is an absolute steal if that happened.

I can't believe how far he has fell over the past year. He looks like Dez on the field.

What's it going to be then, eh?

There are five more unknown players. I would assume they are offensive since we carpet bombed corners and ends.

They would have to be far and away higher on our board to shift away to. Smith-Schuster is the strangest one since he offers nothing on special teams. At least Samuel has that in his favor.

Don't see a place for them honestly...unless the front office has plans to get out of Dez's contract already or something like that(which I highly doubt). T Will got $10M guaranteed reasons he will be here at least 2 more years and Beasley isn't going anywhere as the slot guy. So that leaves spending a 2nd/3rd round pick on a guy battling Butler for the 4th spot? There would have to be overwhelming value of someone dropping for us to take a WR imo. Not saying T Will can't be upgraded, but now that he is back it would be a pretty poor use of resources to draft a WR

I don't like the Samuel in the 2nd round argument at all.

It's a waste of value. For one, he's not a full time slot for us. That's Beasley. He's also not going to get a lot of carries. So are you getting real value taking him in the 2nd? I don't believe so.

Although I could see him being picked. Linehan and Garrett just seem to love that specialized third down back position. It's why Dunbar hung around for as long as he did. I could definitely see Garrett and Linehan making the case that they desperately need their new Dunbar.

Excellent point on Smith-Schuster. He wouldn't crack the top 3 on the depth chart at WR, and without playing specials, it's a difficult pull roster wise. Interestingly enough, he was a top flight safety coming out of high school, so I think he could do it, but he was never asked to at USC.

I wouldn't mind an WR with a trade back. Dez is 28 (injury history) Williams is 27 (shown he can't be the #1) Witten is 34 (slowing way down) and Beasley is 27. Just from an age standpoint it'd be nice to get a guy early.

I would avoid both these WRs. Curtis Smauel looks like the classic track guy who is trying to play football. They really don't know is he a RB or a WR? Juju Smith-Schuster looks the part and his forty time at the combine was good,BUT BESIDES KEYSHAWN JOHNSON IN THE LAST 25 YEARS. WHAT USC WR PANNED OUT IN THE PROS???? I think the USC WRs are part of a system that makes them look good in college but they look sub-par in the NFL.
