Mock

No trades. The player must have been ranked or mocked in that general area or later by one of the major resources to be available here.

1(17) Xavier McKinney S Alabama
I hate the Cowboys' position in this draft. I would love to trade down a tad but that's not allowed here. McKinney is the best value of the players I expect to be available. A difference maker on defense.

2(51) Lloyd Cushenberry III C LSU
A plug and play replacement for that quitter, freak boy Frederick. The Duke of Carville can anchor and move. He has feeling in his feet too. I don't want what was a team strength to quickly deteriorate into a weakness. McGovern can compete at G.

3(82) Noah Igbinoghene CB Auburn
Would be a real coup for the Cowboys if they can land this player here. I think he's a boundary starter within 2 years.

4(123) Lynn Bowden WR Kentucky
A swiss army knife weapon for Fat Mike to have fun with. Could play Tavon Austin this year and fill the Randall Cobb role down the road.

5(164) James Morgan QB FIU
The only real developmental QB in this class. If he's here I have to take the flyer. Sooner or later this team has to find someone with actual talent at the position. Morgan has tools.

5(179) Benito Jones DT Mississippi
I'm kind of in the dark about what we're looking for in defensive linemen these days but if you want a later round guy who can get upfield and shoot gaps Jones is a candidate.

7(231) Chauncey Rivers DE Mississippi St.
Reclamation project who smoked his way out of Georgia as a four star recruit. Kept his nose clean and started to flash with the Bulldogs.

I know that class won't be popular but we shall see.

I don't want any part of Chaisson at 17. I'm not really interested in him at all in the 1st round. You're drafting an athlete if you take him. No matter how athletic he is the guy's never done what we'd be drafting him to do. I'm not declaring him a bust just that the draft is already enough of a crapshoot. I'd at least would like my 1st round pick to have proven himself on the field at some point and not just be potential. I put him at the end of the round simply based off of his elite traits.

I pray to Wentz that the Eagles don't end up with Justin Jefferson. I can't even imagine the Bismarck Bomber dropping halos to him down field completely gashing us while our fraud has to get up to pick up his gatorade cup because he missed the can. Chaisson to Dallas, Jefferson to Philadelphia will have me ready for a dust up.

If I was the Commanders (Hail!) I would take a QB. Pass rushers don't matter when you don't have one. I wouldn't be relying on Haskins to be the guy. I have Tua 8th on the board because of his injury risk. It's a risk worth taking.

I thought about taking James Proche at 123. I know he's a popular pick right now but I worry about his ability to separate in the NFL and ultimately just don't feel good about drafting a guy who died in a plane crash in Louisiana in 1973. Even if I love his music. You don't mess around with Jim.

I had Jefferson the 3rd WR over Ruggs for a while and now I see Mel's top 300 released today also has that order. I feel vindicated.

I wish there was a McClay cam.

Even though I didn't take one I believe LB is a real need for this team. No one should be surprised if they address that in the first 4 picks.

I really hope we will still get the draft secret audio calls with the prospect this year. I love to hear the disappointment in their voices when they realize they just became a teammate of Prescott.

So what will the Cowboys do? Hell if I know. I think the first round pick will be spent on defense. Other than that I got nothing. If you're fixated on need, this team has plenty up and down the roster.

I'm expecting this virtual draft to be a real clusterbleep and probably the least enjoyable draft coverage of my lifetime, Get ready to watch a telethon for charities with a few draft picks thrown in here and there for good measure.

Cowboys!

 

[Gaede]

Nice draft. One like from me.

 

[Teague31]

Risen I feel you and I are in the minority on this center thing. I have zero problem taking Ruiz in the first. Then McGovern can hopefully take over LG and Williams swing tackle

I have a feeling there will be a ton of complaints about this.

Cowboys!

Ya know bro..

"Posted for my own reference. Please do not read. Scroll down to the like tab then"..

and posting this over hours of time just for you..

Means you have not learned how to use voice to text or voice recorder yet.

Bill Gates has spent millions to create those programs but you do not use them.



I see what you are doing.

Here, let me help you..

We stay at 17 and we get an offer to move back, somebody is in a bigger hurry to win than we are.

We trade back to late 1st rd and take a safety. Then we take a Lber in the second becuz Lee is in his last year and Wolf Hunter keeps hearing doorbells in his head and the DC is worried.

We then take a C in the 3rd to get a guy we can groom while Looney starts this year but the new guy finishes the season.

After that..its a crap shoot who is there. No way to know.

There..didn't touch your pretty draft board..took up less space on the server and still had time to get my brownies out of the oven.

Mmmm... good.

 

[fivetwos]

I dont see why you think this would be an unpopular haul.

Cushenberry isnt getting enough respect, probably because of Ruiz. He reminds me of Ray Donaldson and he is every but as ready to play as Ruiz.

The 3rd round scenario is exactly what I'm hoping for as well.

Overall, yeah...barring anything really nuts 17 is no man's land. Which, makes me wonder, who is willing to trade INTO it?

Consequently I think a lot of us are going to be disappointed tomorrow.

 

[Carson]

Consequently I think a lot of us are going to be disappointed tomorrow.

We could draft Prime Deion, Montana, Earl Campbell, Jim Brown etc. and people would find a way to complain

I dont want to take Porche just because he is local. Im tired of people mentioning that with prospects like its some sort of strait

If I can forgive the local connection, he is a good player and a fun guy to watch

5(179) Benito Jones DT Mississippi
I'm kind of in the dark about what we're looking for in defensive linemen these days but if you want a later round guy who can get upfield and shoot gaps Jones is a candidate.

7(231) Chauncey Rivers DE Mississippi St.
Reclamation project who smoked his way out of Georgia as a four star recruit. Kept his nose clean and started to flash with the Bulldogs.

I know that class won't be popular but we shall see.

I don't want any part of Chaisson at 17. I'm not really interested in him at all in the 1st round. You're drafting an athlete if you take him. No matter how athletic he is the guy's never done what we'd be drafting him to do. I'm not declaring him a bust just that the draft is already enough of a crapshoot. I'd at least would like my 1st round pick to have proven himself on the field at some point and not just be potential. I put him at the end of the round simply based off of his elite traits.

I pray to Wentz that the Eagles don't end up with Justin Jefferson. I can't even imagine the Bismarck Bomber dropping halos to him down field completely gashing us while our fraud has to get up to pick up his gatorade cup because he missed the can. Chaisson to Dallas, Jefferson to Philadelphia will have me ready for a dust up.

If I was the Commanders (Hail!) I would take a QB. Pass rushers don't matter when you don't have one. I wouldn't be relying on Haskins to be the guy. I have Tua 8th on the board because of his injury risk. It's a risk worth taking.

I thought about taking James Proche at 123. I know he's a popular pick right now but I worry about his ability to separate in the NFL and ultimately just don't feel good about drafting a guy who died in a plane crash in Louisiana in 1973. Even if I love his music. You don't mess around with Jim.

I had Jefferson the 3rd WR over Ruggs for a while and now I see Mel's top 300 released today also has that order. I feel vindicated.

I wish there was a McClay cam.

Even though I didn't take one I believe LB is a real need for this team. No one should be surprised if they address that in the first 4 picks.

I really hope we will still get the draft secret audio calls with the prospect this year. I love to hear the disappointment in their voices when they realize they just became a teammate of Prescott.

So what will the Cowboys do? Hell if I know. I think the first round pick will be spent on defense. Other than that I got nothing. If you're fixated on need, this team has plenty up and down the roster.

I'm expecting this virtual draft to be a real clusterbleep and probably the least enjoyable draft coverage of my lifetime, Get ready to watch a telethon for charities with a few draft picks thrown in here and there for good measure.

Cowboys!

The rankings look good. Draft was meh. Write-up was the best thing you've ever contributed here. Time to retire. We'll spread your likes around evenly in your stead.

Epic post. We are unworthy of such greatness.

I wonder what kind of celebration they give Risen for his 100,000 likes!

Mock

No trades. The player must have been ranked or mocked in that general area or later by one of the major resources to be available here.

1(17) Xavier McKinney S Alabama
I hate the Cowboys' position in this draft. I would love to trade down a tad but that's not allowed here. McKinney is the best value of the players I expect to be available. A difference maker on defense.

2(51) Lloyd Cushenberry III C LSU
A plug and play replacement for that quitter, freak boy Frederick. The Duke of Carville can anchor and move. He has feeling in his feet too. I don't want what was a team strength to quickly deteriorate into a weakness. McGovern can compete at G.

3(82) Noah Igbinoghene CB Auburn
Would be a real coup for the Cowboys if they can land this player here. I think he's a boundary starter within 2 years.

4(123) Lynn Bowden WR Kentucky
A swiss army knife weapon for Fat Mike to have fun with. Could play Tavon Austin this year and fill the Randall Cobb role down the road.

5(164) James Morgan QB FIU
The only real developmental QB in this class. If he's here I have to take the flyer. Sooner or later this team has to find someone with actual talent at the position. Morgan has tools.

Literally spit coffee all over myself at the "Scroll down to the like tab and then leave" comment.

 

[Risen Star]

Risen I feel you and I are in the minority on this center thing. I have zero problem taking Ruiz in the first. Then McGovern can hopefully take over LG and Williams swing tackle

We can't lose our identity. We have to keep the OL a strength. Frederick's gone. Tyron is a serious health concern. You won't see me complaining if they draft an offensive lineman early.

 

[Risen Star]

I dont see why you think this would be an unpopular haul.

Cushenberry isnt getting enough respect, probably because of Ruiz. He reminds me of Ray Donaldson and he is every but as ready to play as Ruiz.

The 3rd round scenario is exactly what I'm hoping for as well.

Overall, yeah...barring anything really nuts 17 is no man's land. Which, makes me wonder, who is willing to trade INTO it?

Consequently I think a lot of us are going to be disappointed tomorrow.

Because McKinney isn't a popular prospect around here and to follow that up with an OL when it's not the most glaring need won't win over many people.
