The way I see it…..
Dial up a nice pass rush and we can win with the corners we have.
Or, have a meh pass rush, then it doesn’t matter who your corners are, you’ll eventually be beat.
Unless a guy like Gonzalez or Witherspoon inexplicably slips to 26 somehow, it’s time to give it a rest with the high picks on corners.
I think your opinion is fair. I also see the logic in drafting a CB in R1-2 if you think they have shutdown potential. I don’t see the logic in suggesting that drafting a CB anywhere is dumb. IMO, there is a difference between depth v lot of bodies.
Diggs is set, Gilmore is temporary, I like Bland in the slot, and Lewis may be gone after the draft or next year.
If the Cowboys view it the same way, who replaces Gilmore? It would be great if Joseph, Wright, or someone else from our “deep” bench stepped up but I have a hard time visualizing it right now. If we didn’t grab Gilmore, would opinions of CB need be different?
I am 100% on board with grabbing a CB
somewhere in a stupid deep class. If everyone stays healthy and he doesn’t get starter snaps but learns under Gilmore, I’m good with that as well.
