Well a lot of contenders don’t need that many….they find them throughout the draft. But for whatever reason Cowboys and their fans think they can only get linemen in the first round.
What do you mean he is no longer mobile lol?
Bro stand in the pocket patting the ball like a 38 year old Drew Bledsoe. When he does run he is running scared.
That has nothing to do with mobility though.
so with that in mind who are you targeting in 1st round or what position? You dont draft a RB round 1 and this year there isnt anyone worth it. I prefer trade down but you need a partner. You targeting WR? You know they arent taking QB. CB maybe. The draft lines up to their needs this year Im willing to bet we see OL. They are probably too proud to take DT in round 1 although it wouldnt upset me.
Now you're talking, Pappy!
There should be partners available for trading down with. Several playoff capable teams are an O-Tackle, Center, LB or WR away from improving on their teams (ie...the 49ers, Chiefs at the end of the 1st and even the Commanders in the early 2nd round would likely be willing to move up).
and then how far down you moving? I like a trade down but Im still taking OL
You can find a good O-Tackle and Center between the 3rd - 5th rounds. Too many holes to fill with better players at RB, LB, DT and WR2.
I’ve always maintained that the 3 biggest draft mistakes you guys made over the last 15 years were 1st round picks wasted on Tyron Smith, Zack Martin, and Travis Frederick.
Yep. 100%! Jerry got away from that, and it has hurt the Cowboys come playoff time.
Drafting priorities have changed from 90s, OL is flying off the shelves now a days.
Not true. Linemen were as much important and needed during the 90s as they are today. Difference is back then coaches actually built up Olines with later draft picks.
