Feels like defensive BPA is going to be the way to go seeing as we likely wont make moves in FA.

Reese - LBr/DE
Woods - DT
Downs - S
Faulk - DE
Bailey - DE

Arguably the best defenders in the draft and I am fairly confident 1 will be available with our first pick.

Sonny Styles (LBr) is the wild card. I think he going to pick up a ton of steam. Basically a bigger version of Shazier who they loved.
 
Early look, good year to have a need at edge as the depth in rd 1 looks good. Might even be able to address that need with the Packers pick.

I just watched Styles, think he is an elite, coverage linebacker, where Reese is more that Parsons type as a pass rusher.
 
Good list. Wouldn't be unhappy with any of these cats, prefer Downs if hes there. We need better safety play.
 
Love to get Reese, Down, Faulk, but I think they would be out of reach. Woods would be nice but not a top priority since we have Williams now.

With our needs on defense this class appears to match up well for us.

CB class is looking mediocre though...we really need Revel to hit and Bland to get healthy and return to form.

Yeah, his play could determine a bigger or lesser need at the position. Really would like to fix the front 7 first, then fill out the secondary

100% agree...

Let's get some dogs up front and be rock solid with the front 7 and that should help the back end.

The only DB I would be happy with with our 1st pick is the Safety Downs.

Agreed. Edge/Linebacker should be the target positions.
 
I think LB is off the table (for this FO, not me)
Even if we do nothing else in FA, we will pick the Williams brother from Jets in FA and will feel ‘set’ at LB between Overshown, Logan, Williams and Liufau
Our rd 1 picks will be DE and CB. Im ok with this since both are needs and high value positions. Safety if somehow Downs falls

You talking about in the first round or draft overall for the Cowboys.

Bailey isnt a great run defender but great pass rusher. Faulk is a great run defender.i cant see Downs,Reese,Woods dropping to us.EZE is going to be our rush player

Bailey is so good as a pass rusher I dont care if he needs to develop as a run defender. He can be a DPR year 1 while he gets stronger and more effective against the run. He has the arm length and frame for it.

That is 5 defenders we hope drop to around the 12th pick.

There will be teams ahead of us focused on offense.

A lot will depend upon if Eberflus and his scheme returns. Remember, his scheme calls for generating a pass rush with his front 4. You want edge rushers to be able to generate quick pressure, Bailey fits that.

In my opinion, Bailey is the best pure pass rusher in the class. If we stay in this scheme, he is an ideal fit as we need rushers to generate quick pressure without sending extra men on the blitz.

Yea he is a monster. No issues taking him with our 1st 1.
