The best thing to do is take from that of Warmack, Cooper, Watson, Fluker in that order. Reason being, the depth is so much better at DT and DE in the mid to late 2nd. Guys like Okafor, Short, Moore, Washington, Hankins, Jenkins. Maybe even a safety and DE in the 3rd.

No, you really don't. This is how bad teams draft.

Are you seriously saying you'd draft Fluker and Watson over Richardson?

If we can trade back in late first and pick up another second. We can get alot of positions of need. Don't force issue

I wouldnt draft fluker over richardson but i would draft cooper or warmack over him hands down. Think about it, with no o-line, no run game, and romo most likely getting hurt for the season, only so much Richardson can do for you. So i 100 percent agree that OL in the first, maybe even the second.

You really think a single guard is going to change things? Improving an OLine will take a concerted effort, whereas a great 3-tech can come in and immediately and radically improve our line. A single guard, in the end, won't make as significant of a difference as some are professing.

That being said, I have Cooper above Richardson, but Richardson above Warmack.

Good logic. Can't change the OL with one guard so let's just leave it as it is and reach for a lower graded player.

You...have...to...start...somewhere.

No one guard wont, you are right about that, but if we go after winston/clabo draft cooper/warmack, and pick up another guard in FA, i think our line will be significantly improved. Id rather have our franchise qb alive and well for a season and not running for his life, then have a great defense thats on the field more then they are supposed to be because our OL couldnt keep Romo on his feet, or open holes for murray to move the chains.

Ah yes, just read the first sentence and ignore the context. Good show.

If we go Watson/Bailey or Armstead/Schwenke or Warford/Winston and our line will be greatly improved. You don't necessarily need to spend a first to greatly improve the line.

Oh, I'll respond to the entire thing.

Could one guard change things? YES.

Will it fix the ENTIRE offensive line? No, but you have to start and rebuild somewhere.

Tony deserves an OL similar to the one he had in 2007.

In regards to the 3 tech, I love Richardson, but does he start right away? You claim a 3 tech would make an immediate impact, but how can that be when Hatcher and Ratliff are already the projected starters?

I think if you draft that athletic and dominant guard that gives Tony a better running game and a cleaner pocket, then yes I call that an immediate impact.

Agreed, but for a qb they just gave 55 million in guarenteed money to, I think investing in the BEST protection for him is the best way to go. Thats just my opinion

Ratliff will be the 1 Tech and Richardson would start over Hatcher at the 3. Ricardson would immediately be our best DT.

Let's see what happens. Last year, I was all in on OG and I was grinning like a fool after we landed Claiborne.

I still would have liked us to take an OG, but sometimes you get surprised in a good way.

Watson is ridiculously overrated and is a developmental guy.

I like Bailey.

Armstead looks like a bust to me.

I like Schwenke.

Warford is a poor scheme fit and I don't have a good vibe about him.

Winston isn't coming to Dallas.

I'm hoping for Warmack/Coope and Clabo in FA.

Maybe, but that's completely a hypothetical. I'm not taking Richardson over Cooper but I would think about him over Warmack.

Watson started every game at FSU and only allowed one sack. How is that "developmental?" Hell, Chance Warmack gave up 3.5 playing guard.

Well, when you don't have an argument, I guess giving up is the only recourse.

You win chief. Obviously because Warmack gave up more sacks than Watson last year, that makes Watson a better football player, even though every team in the NFL will have Warmack graded ridiculously higher than Watson. Preach on.

I definitely can't argue with that. :banghead:
