I hope our current players aren't so terrible that 4 rookies can beat them out.

1st and 2nd rounders should start or get alot of snaps. 3rd thru 5th should be quality rotational players. We have been blessed that even our 6th rounders have played a ton of snaps or starting. 7th rounders fill out the p.s.

Sir, you asked for "2-4" starters and he gave you 2. I would be interested in knowing the last team who drafted 4 quality starters in one draft? That would be one amazing draft...

they are going to change the rules to try and fit their narative....the reason the cowboys are in such a good spot at cb is bc of last years draft..

We have 3-4 major holes on defense with nobody on the current roster to fill it.

1-tech: Was a weakness last year. Collins didn't fit well there. We either move Collins back to his natural position and have him backup Irving or we play him out of position again. Worst case scenario: Someone steals Irving from us and then both DT spots become a need. Best case: Collins gets it together and becomes a solid 1-tech next to Irving. Likely case: Collins backs up Irving at 3-tech and we need to find a starting 1-tech.

MLB: We lost Hitchens and rumor is Smith is moving to SLB. Even if we moved Lee back to MLB, we'd still have a need at MLB or WLB. Worst case scenario: Lee goes down, Smith continues to struggle, and we don't have any reliable LBers. Best case: Lee stays healthy, Smith plays how he was expected to out of the draft, and they become a solid duo and make the 3rd LBer less of a priority. Likely case: We have WLB and SLB covered with Lee and Smith, and a major hole to fill at MLB.

Both safety spots: With Jones moving back to CB, we just lost our starting FS. And I don't know how confident they are in Heath at SS. Best case scenario: Woods becomes to FS we always wanted Jones to be and Heath looks like a true SS. Worst case: Nobody steps up and we have no reliable safety. Likely case: Someone steps up, likely winning the SS job, but we need another starter.

Can you tell me the last time we drafted 2-4 quality starters on defense in the same draft?

Cowboys fans are perfect examples of people in an abusive relationship just coming back for seconds everytime.

Last year.

I don't get it, what are you arguing? do you disagree with that statement? Since we found two solid starters last year, and we find two this year we will have a solid defense. Everything can't be done in free agency...

Well it depends on what you call quality starters. Some say Taco, Chido and our 3rd rounder will be three starters and that's just last year.

New Orleans drafted 4 Quality starters last year. I just hope we get a TE, LB , and DT starter.
