David Bailey Edge Texas Tech

[Cowboyny]

I believe he is the best pure pass rusher in the class and has that skill set we just do not have on our current roster; he is that speed rusher that can create instant pressure. He needs to improve as a run defender to become a legitimate 3 down player, but he has all the physical traits to improve upon that area.

Arizona, Kansas City and Cowboys have been the three teams that have brought him in. If Arizona passes, think we can trade ahead of Chiefs and land him. I would worried about Saints, Commanders too.

I think the only way we get him is to trade up with AZ @3.

 

[JBS]

If you ask me right now, he’d be my pick for who the cowboys will draft. The question is at what number. They’ll move up to get him

I think 6 is a real possibility as the Titans want Love, Giants don’t need an edge rusher

I think he most likely goes 3rd. I dont see him getting to 6, which is striking distance. If he does, Id pull the trigger

IMO it is Bailey and then a drop off to the next tier. He is that good.

He will be out of range though and I dont want to move up if it costs both 1sts.

Where would you tier him as far as the elite rushers that have come out the last 5 years or so

Best pure pass rusher in the last few years IMO.

I would not take him over Anderson who I had as a legit blue chipper. If Latu had zero injury concerns as a prospect I would have him and Bailey close.

 

[LouBrown]

Bailey is a terrific prospect but in this Edge class (I like him more than Reese) I just don't think he's worth the price to move up for.

There are so many guys in that late-first or early-day two range that you're better off positioning yourself there.

Arizona has offensive needs across the board, they also just hired a former oc as their HC. Love could be in play, along with OL and receiver

I’m not sure if I would have him ahead of Carter, definitely not over Anderson, but he isn’t that far behind either. I don’t think anyone will disagree, he is the best pure pass rusher in the class. Reese has potential but raw right now

Possibly, but Bailey is going to be the best player available. I think the best shot for them to pass on Bailey is them falling in love with Simpson. Or maybe even Mauigoa. But an RT at #3 might be a stretch.

And if they do pass on Bailey, there is going to be alot of callers for 4 to get him. I wouldn't get your hopes up on Bailey getting within striking distance

 

[Cowboyny]

Perfect world, he makes it to 6 get 39th back in return. At 39, we can get the right value at linebacker, could get a good corner or even a nickel like Scott or maybe McNeil-Warren

As a pass rusher I would comfortably have him over Carter.

Carter was winning in college on athleticism and did not have much of a pass rush plan.

Arizona’s pick has the potential to shake up the top 10. I agree with all your points, but it is a possibility he slides to 6. Say the cowboys feel like he won’t make it there, what would your offer be to get to 3? I would give them 12/20 if they throw in a 2nd. Maybe add a future pick

Yes, strictly as a pass rusher, but Carter better all around player

Carter was overrated throughout the process because people were just hoping he was Micah.

Bailey has a lot more polish.

 

[Aven8]

I thinks he’s a real possibility to the Jets for sure.

I saw all of his games from last year. He’s the real deal and got better as the season went along. He dominated Oregon in the Orange bowl albeit in a loss.

He did have more power coming out.

Anxious to see how their careers play out.

I honestly dont see it. If Arizona passes, amd Tennessee doesn't take him, teams will call Tennessee. I dont see any way he gets passed that 4th pick. This is the best player in draft.

To move up to 3, we would have to give up 12, 20, 92. #3 is worth 2,200 and those three would give you 2,182
