Trade down
Pick 17 and 120 to the Buffalo Bills who so badly want one of the top end WRs.
For
22 and 54

Draft:
22. Grant Delpit S LSU
51. Kristian Fulton CB LSU
54. Neville Gallimore DT Oklahoma
82. Troy Pride Jr CB Notre Dame

I think we can trade our 5th rounder to the Buccs for O.J. Howard.

Do you like Delpit more than Xavier McKinney I'm not so sure Delpit is better than McKinney

The Bills, or really any team, isn't going to trade up for a WR in a class this deep. I do think it's possible a team trades up for a QB - NO - and then Dallas gets Delpit at 24, which I like a lot more than 17.

But overall I really dislike the idea of spending that much draft capital on your secondary. Assuming you didn't re-sign Collins and Jones, you saved a lot of money, but got a lot worse.

If one of the top 4 guys are there they would.
They are aggressive. They think they are close and if they had a true number 1 WR they would jump. Also if a top olineman is there.

I wouldnt resign either Jones or Brown save that cash get us some fresh blood in the lines.
Pride and Fulton would be awesome additions.

We need another 2nd rounder this deaft is deep on aloy of things but we need to establish need feels. And if we can in three rounds other then TE maybe get a FA or bring back Witten

At this point I believe Mckinney gets taken before 17.
I could be wrong but hey.
Delpit has the best chance of sliding and no Safety will slide past the Patriots.

We need to swcure the Secondary badly alot of our guys are gone and wont be back foe the money. Why bring back Brown he is bad. And Jones wants the cash.
Next year its Chido and Lewis.
You better get on top of things before you get eatin alive

 

[garyv]

Here's my view in order of how I would make the selections:

Chaisson
Kinlaw
McKinney
Delpit

I will say this the Cowboys need to use every dollar they have this year in availability to land free agents. PERIOD.

This is exactly how you kill your cap.

Spend more money on players who aren't better than what you already have.

In one sense, this is true. The flipside is that the Dallas front office and some fans have often overrated our own talent relative to what's out there in FA.

I mean...not really.

There isn't a better corner than Byron, receiver than Amari, quarterback than Dak, passrushing DT than Collins, passrushing edge than Quinn. You can go get guys with different skillsets, but you're not going to get better pure talent.

Cap and the new CBA will blow up the numbers there are no reason they can't spend this year what they have because
there will be bunches more the next two years !!!

Delpit cant tackle ...Delpit might be a little faster but Woods is FS atm ..Delpit would have to play FS ..McKinney can tackle, hits hard, can play box SS or coverage ..I prefer McKinney...a S that cant tackle & hurt in college isnt what I want in NFL

Collins is not consistent hes a pre season Beast regular season hes a average player, Byron is good but 0 ball skills Amari is top 10 so there are better WRs .plus Amari lacks that passion 0 dog ...Quinn wasgreat through 10 games then was a GHOST

Um Collins is trash and you need to let Byron walk.
You cant trust Collins. Why pay him sorry this is how you get screwed.
Same with Anthony Brown. Jesus H Christ pass him to someone else.

You are giving some specific examples of really good players to try to prove your point. Of course it would be tough to get a better WR in FA than Cooper considering he's the best FA WR out there. Same with Jones at this point.

But they have also not gone after players because they overrated the abilities of their own guys already on the roster. For a few years, for example, they eschewed spending money on even a decent 1T because they thought the Golden Cock was a starting caliber 1T. He was not. He stunk.

Well I'm only talking about specifically this year. I agree in general that they should be more aggressive with FAs.

 

[Xavier187]

Its not that we have to be aggressive its we have to pick a postion and do it in the draft.

If our only option is Byron Jones at CB and he wants the Yacht. Then let him sail. And we draft CBs in this draft at least 2 if not 3. To prepare for next year aswell and we wont be behind the eightball.

The FA class at DT is very deep. This would be where I would look out the gate and TE postion.
The draft is where S and CB and WR would be the way to go

 

[texbumthelife]

I think we can trade our 5th rounder to the Buccs for O.J. Howard.

Based on what? He hasn't done much, but he's also been hamstrung by a gross lack of talent around him and some very suspect coaching.

They might be willing to move him, but I don't think his value has fallen nearly that far.

Its fallin pretty far. He is a TE former 1st rounder whom the Brass just doesnt like.

You usually dont give higher then a 4th rounder via trade for a TE. If you do it almost 100% back fires on you.
And since his numbers are meh at beats at the moment. Then where is he valued

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

Am I the only one thinking Fulton will not last to our second round pick?

If he isnt there tuen Arnette or Diggs or someone like that will.
I dont see a fit for alot of CBs this year of teams who need them.
Sure Jeffery in the top 5. But afyer that its there are alot of teams needing other things rather then a CB.
