A lot of smoke out there the week of the draft, I see 2 prospects that have potential to fall out of the top 10 and would be "no brainer" selections for the Cowboys in Graham/Membou:

-Many are pointing to Jeanty to the Jaguars now which could affect where Graham ultimately land as many have had him going there for weeks.

-Hearing the Patriots want either of the two Georgia pass rushers, not an offensive lineman. This could push the offensive lineman down the board.

-T-Mac is starting to get top 10 buzz from teams like the Raiders, Panthers and Saints. Have heard Tyler Warren getting a lot of love in the same back end of the top 10 range.

Graham might be a 3T only now due to his size, but he has the best tape of any DT in the class. Balanced DT who fits the Cowboys needs up front like a glove.

Membou has only played Right Tackle but many feel he could have the versatility to also kick inside at Guard. With the Cowboys he would give them the versatility that they love to target.

I could see the Cowboys having Simmoms over Membou.

Graham sliding could be interesting. He could that guy when you are watching the telecast " Dont be Graham, Dont be Graham" ever pick announcement before the Cowboys
 
I can't disagree with that at all. Graham is technically blocked by OSA, but you can still get him on the field. Passing on him would be a huge mistake.

Membou is an interesting one. If they really want a pure Tackle there could be some truth to the Simmons rumor and they may preferer to go with him over Membou. Membou could absolutely plug right in at RG from day 1 though. Given the lack of upside guys likely to be at 12 this year I'm more than happy going OL round 1.

Agree
Graham or trade down
Id rather get Simmons later

Graham has always been the best fit for the Cowboys since he started looking at this class.
 
I didn’t get the hype on graham until I saw some drills he did and how crazy good his bend is. He looks like a nice disruptor.


This defense does need to force negative plays bc it looks like you’ll be able to run on Dallas again

Eberflus plays two 3T's in his nickel. He would be an impact player for the interior.

Membou could play RG to start and eventually take over for Steele at RT.

I have not heard his name much at all linked to Dallas which is weird ? It seems like he’s going very early but you never know

Maybe trade jalen Tolbert a 2026 5th and 12 to the panthers for 8
 
I don’t love OL in the first…but with Membou at least we know he can stick at OT so we’d be getting good value at a money position.
Membou has never played LT just like Guyton in College, not saying he can't do it but something to think about.

Why can’t you jsut let hoff or someone play rg. Bass looks promising . Bass looks liek a 4th rounder or some other semi promising prospect. Jsut develop one of them

We have over 10 30 visitors that are unknown, we know Membou already came in, Graham being the best DT, you would have to think they would have interest.

I get the hype behind the talent I just don’t get the hype behind him being a top 5-10 pick.
 
Lots of smoke out there
Just read a nugget with Todd Mcshay send the bears could have a choice between Graham and Jeanty.
You both players got that close to 12 that could be interesting
 
That’s my stance I do not get the insistence of everyone wanting first round picks all on the line. We have enough. Develop them.
Something I keep coming back to is us fans deserve something fun,

You miss the playoffs. Try to bring back the coach on the cheap. He leaves. You spin a bottle and pick frank schhotenheimer or whatever as coach. Give dak cd and Micah big raises. Lose Lawrence and Lewis and then we draft another offensive linemen after all that? Another one with positional questions.


For all these line resources they weirdly have nothing settled. You can talk me into
Tyler- beebee- hoff- steele- guyton
