WR Devin Smith scheduled to meet with the #Cowboys today at Valley Ranch. Interest fit in Dallas
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

will people at the zone freak out if we draft him?

David Helman and Dane have both said that it wouldn't surprise them if we take him at 60. Apparently very interested in him.

I have no problem with that. Special teams player and someone who gives the offense something it flat out doesn't have right now, an elite deep threat.

I'd love to pick up a serious deep threat to put next to Dez.

With Bryant's contract situation in the air, it does make sense to grab a wideout just in case.

Good call. I have read that he can be an excellent gunner to replace Harris but provides actual receiver benefits and a speed threat we don't have.

Draft your board. For the record I like this guy. Team has lacked Terry Glenn element for years.

we need a legit wr that can really make plays .. T.Will is a body catcher .. Devin Smith most underrated WR in this class. He's a legit downfield threat that makes plays. Definitely worth 2nd rd

Right now he is a go route only guy. He is great at it, but lacks any sort of versatility in his route tree. I'm afraid he will be a great deep threat, but lack the ability to be productive doing anything else as a WR. If he was the pick at 60, I would probably dislike the pick, but understand why they took him. He would create room for Dez underneath and over the middle, but if he can't develop his route running ability, I don't know how effective he will be.

I get it but Ohio State offense seems more conducive to that type of big play offense,all 3 QBs seems to chuck it deep.

Can't lie...I've wanted a WR with real game changing speed in this offense for years. I'd be happy with this pick if he's there.

My thoughts exactly when I watch him Terry Glenn, another similar player is Phillip Dorsett both players require the defense to honour their speed and quickness. Just to be clear neither are OD Beckham maybe in todays game similar to the former eagle and current Commander Desean Jackson IMO. At pick 60 if we take one of these two guys the draft train must of taken a path I have yet to contemplate and need to reexamine what I thought were our priorities in 2015.

He will be long gone before the Cowboys second round pick comes up.

Yeah, I think the only way they get him is if they trade back or trade up. Opportunity may be there though. I hope not, because there should be a really great player there with their first pick, but if the deal is too good to pass up then a high second and third would not be the worst thing in the world.

Agree with everyone else here. Deep speed would put our offense on another level
