It's the C or a CB for me.
Peter Konz is a day one starter at the weakest position in the offensive line. Konz would solidify the offensive line (at center) and give Dallas two first round picks in the offensive line (Smith and Konz). Is Konz a guy that I want to take to the New Meadowlands? Yes! Do I want to start Costa, Nagy, or Kowalski? No! It's Konz against 2 players who were not even drafted and a real late 7th round pick. All three of those guys are too small and not strong enough. Good centers are hard to find, and Konz could be the super-glue to the season at center. Dallas should be able to win with Bernadeau and Livings at both guard spots, because they are both significant upgrades over the 2010 and 2011 guards. You can put another guard in the pipe-line in this draft. Leary, in round 5, may be the way to go.
I don't trust Dallas' cornerbacks behind Brandon Carr, and I would really like Gilmore or Kirkpatrick, too. Can the Cowboys afford to pay two CBs huge money? Mike Jenkins is in a walk year, and he's coming off shoulder surgery, too. Orlando Scandrick is overvalued and overrated, imo. When will Dallas get the opportunity to draft a first round caliber CB, again? If Jenkins just averages his 2009 and 2011 seasons (and stays healthy), he will probably cost some big time money on the open market. You can never have enough CBs in the NFC East and NFC. The defense has major problems in the secondary and up front, imo. Something tells me that a first round CB will see the field and see it a bunch.
Don't take the trade.
Take one of the CBs (Gilmore or Kirkpatrick).
Arizona will probably take Glenn or Upshaw.
Let the Bears pick, and hopefully, they don't take the other CB. If Tennessee takes the other CB, the Bengals will still have DeCastro on the board. The Bengals could possibly take Konz if a CB or DeCastro isn't there for them. We don't want that.
Before you make up your mind, call New England and see if pick 27 is available and check on the price. You have the ammunition to get it, but we don't want to get jumped (by Baltimore or Green Bay) if we take the CB. Getting Konz is a big deal.
Summarize:
1. Take Gilmore or Kirkpatrick
2. Trade back up for Konz (New England # 27)
