If Tyron Smith is not an LT, then they really overpaid for him.

I think he's grow into that position. He's very young and has all the tools needed.

He knows nothing. Always comes out with made up stuff

Sad but true. Sully has a bald head and a big imagination but his column in the Star Magazine is entertaining.

As I have stated before: Dallas needs to hit on their first four picks if they expect to compete for a title. The starters in place are okay but they need a serious influx of talent. Trading up for one player is not going to help and will only delay their development as a team.

It'll help if they get a really good player. I think it's pretty unlikely for a couple reasons you'd likely agree with but if they see a significant difference between what they can get with a tradeup and what is likely to fall to them at 18 AND they don't have to give up too much to move, they'll do it.

I hope they decide to stay put and let things fall into place. There is no one good enough to trade up for in this draft that will significantly improve this roster except maybe one of the tackles.

I would totally support jumping up several spots to get Johnson and a spot or two for Cooper. Otherwise I agree. I think RT is a deceptively important and difficult spot to fill. And I think our current OGs are really bad, but I'm in good company on that opinion.

I would also support trading down for future picks, which I think generally is an underrated strategy. I think future picks are generally undervalued. But that could just be me.

I think, based on what we are hearing from the analysts, this would be a great draft to move down. I would prefer they stay put but would not be disappointed if they move down if the guys they want are gone.

Yeah, I'd rather them move down than reach. I expect they won't have to reach for a guy they like at 18. One of their guys will fall. Of course, we can't be sure who those guys are.

No, they didn't. With the new rookie cap he's not overpaid at all.

I'm referring to draft value and not dollars.
Pretty rare that you would draft a RT that early.

It sounds like they had Tyron and JJ Watt rated about the same but went with the LT.

I still think Smith will be a very good LT anyway.
