But who is the stud you want and need badly?
Patrick Surtain nor Nick Farley are sub 4.45 speedy corners. Thus they are short in long speed.
Farley did not play last year and has had two injuries in college.
CB Joe Horn is only the thir rated CB.
There is no proven multi-year DLineman who exhibited dominance all the years of starting. Teams will draft here one year wonders like Rousseau or J Phillips of the Univ of Miami. They say Christian Barmore is just now developing. Daviyon Nixon is not rated for the top 15.
Micah parsons from Penn State is the only sure thing top 10 defender, but the Cowboys are in dire need at CB and at DT.
What is the physical condition of Lael Collins and Tyron Smith, a real serious detailed medical disclosure is needed. If one is not good, I do not want to put out on the field a diminished player, like T Craw was in 2020 after double hip surgery. I would then take a blue chip OT to take one of the spots. If Collins and Smith both make full recoveries, which is deemed to be doubtful now, I would give the LG position to this #1 tackle and make Connor Williams a backup LT and LG.
What concerns me is that T Smith missed afew games in the past few seasons to to lower back pain, not neck pain. He had neck surgery, like LVE but what about T Smith's lower back?
All you guys can speculate all you want about draft picks, but without accurate and detailed info on what the medical condition and forecast is on them,T Smith and Lael, but we may be forced to the realism that we cannot draft a CB or DT in round one, but rather a blue chip OT one who can start his first year. This will crush all hopes of rejuvenating the defense with quality starters in 2021.
Even worse, the Cowboys may suppress the medical forecasts of Smith and Collins and allow us to waste our time fantasizing over CB's and DT's, when the insiders would know an OT is the most important choice.
Cowboys' management has failed to provide any details about T Smith and Lael's recoveries and post-operative football-playing condition. Has anyone seen them around town?
I am very concerned.
