Caleb Downs at safety takes over in center field day one and puts an end to this shoddy misstep safety play as WR’s have no concern after burning our corners .

And Keldrick Faulk at Edge with size 285 LBS can be a cornerstone with Ez Dallas second round steal this year . And bring Houston back next year a nice pick up ex Lion and Clowney who has really come on as of late .

Trading Parsons and somehow doubling up on premier defenders like Safety Downs and Edge Faulk goes a long way to bringing order to a garbage looking defense . Not to mention the 2 big trade pick ups this week .

Both are probably out of range

Out of range meaning they will have been taken by the time Dallas picks ? Downs is possibly a top 10 pick but Faulk the Edge at 285 is not someone to get pushed around I think he would be available to Dallas first round , they have 2 picks . I want both of them Caleb Downs is in the Hamilton mold , the Baltimore Raven . Think Ed Reed type of safety .

Faulk is most likely a top 10 pick. Possibly even top 6

We might be able to get one of them, but not both. Both are probably top ten picks.
 
We would have to lose a lot more games.
Problem is every team below us are losing games as well,
Last week only two teams with a worse record than us won.
 
Out of the two the safety will go first. A 285 LB edge though as a disrupter won’t be pushed around is sorely needed .
I'm not so sure if Downs will go before Faulk. I'm assessing that on merely the premium value of position and not just talent. I'm not taking anything away from Downs, but teams drafting in the top ten usually have bigger needs than paying a premium price for a position that's not considered as such.

and those that think that way are very wrong
FS is a premium position for championship teams
 
Not sure about this .........Ed Reed was a Ray Lewis protege who taught him how to master film study.
Ed Reed was on the All Rookie Team so he was excellent out of the gate. But he worked at getting better all the time. Made second team all pro his second year and went on from there.
 
Part of the problems in the secondary is not just Elam and whoever else from the PS or coming back from IR trotted out at cornerback , the Safety play is substandard FS & SS . Need a cornerback as well . All three levels of this defense needs help .

Downs can have this effect on any team he goes to.

Well of course if you could get downs it's a no-brainer and a need. All the mocks I have seen have Downs taken before 10. We may get Faulk with our pick even that would be close. of course to your position their mocks and that don't mean hockey.

Good Post Ron sounds like two very logical moves to me to improve this mess of a defense. A free safety with range, ball skills and good tackling ability is a must have. And Dallas has really struggled setting the edge at times this season both must improve. I am looking forward to watching Williams and Wilson as well as Overshown and Revel how they can impact this defense.
