I hope we trade up for one of the guards

[Howboutdemcowboys31]

The fear of not upgrading the OL is unreal for me. I can totally be satisfied with Sheldon Richardson or Star if he falls, but theres a huge risk they don't fall. I want to win now while our 3 best players Romo, Witten, and Ware still have it. Again, Ill be fine and satisfied with most of the OL and DT players, but I really would love to move up 4-5 slots to get Warrmack or Cooper. Our offense is much closer to being elite then our defense, lets make it elite.

Groan.

Spending two or more picks on one interior lineman. Terrible.

I read that the Cowboys have all of these guards rated lower than they had DeCastro last year and that's why we wouldn't go guard in this draft. I'll try to find it and post the link but I thought it was very interesting.

And both of these guys are better than him so its no wonder we can't evaluate linemen.

If cooper or warmack are at 15 I can see us moving up a few spots but not that much. Too deep of a draft to move up that much.

 

[Thatkidbob]

I'm praying that we don't.

With the depth at OL in this draft quality guards can likely be found throughout. We only have 6 picks. Why handicap ourselves further? Especially for a guard.

I think one of the 2 premium Guards will be there for the taking. Guards historically always fall.

Please post the link. I've never, ever heard that story.

Sounds like a hoax to me, but because someone somewhere made up something, another person takes it as gospel.

No, they aren't.

 

[NeonNinja]

No, they aren't.

Both are graded higher.

 

[CATCH17]

No, they aren't.

I disagree Bigtime.

 

[speedkilz88]

The Cowboys didn't like DeCastro very much. It was Zeitler that they liked best out of the guards and he was still a lot lower than where they picked last year.

Why would we trade UP for one of those OG's when BOTH are going to be available at #18 ???

If I personally knew you I'd bet my student loans on that statement

How about a sig bet?

 

[Smith22]

I hope we land Cooper, but trading up for a guard seems a bit much.

I could see trading up in round 1 for certain positions, but guard certainly is not one of them.

 

[noshame]

I hope we stay put and grab a G, then trade up a little in the second and nab Barrett Jones.

I would be

I don't think so.

You must have read that wrong or got confused.

 

[BourbonBalz]

I know it has been claimed that Larry Warford doesn't fit the zone blocking scheme very well, but he will be available in the 2nd round and he's a beast of a man. I think we could fit him in. I love having big, powerful offensive linemen.
