If Dallas Passes On DeCastro For A Corner, How Will You Feel?

[Chocolate Lab]

1. Hope the guy is a stud and becomes All-Pro.

2. Log on to CZ to watch the "They didn't draft my pet cat!!!" meltdown.

This draft is supposedly looking good for both OL and DL so Dallas better take advantage, after 4 rounds they need to have 3 linemen,,, or else!

 

[Oh_Canada]

I really hope they don't waste a first rd pick on a corner. It has to be a pressure player or an olineman and a FA cornerback since there are many to choose from.

I would take DeCastro over any CG except Claiborne, so yeah i would be upset

In order, I feel like we need OL, then front 7, then CB.

^^Exactly. And in the front seven I honestly would prefer someone on the D line as opposed to a linebacker.

We are blessed at O skill positions. TR n JW can have really special last few years if the OL can become specisl too. Get a DE and a safety upgrade while addressing CB in FA. You can't be great on both sides of the ball these dayd. Our O is much closer to greatness IMO.

We can and will address all three. I just want to use that 14th pick on a big ugly.

Totally agree.

 

[Risen Star]

Totally agree.

The Cowboys select Glenn at 14 over DeCastro.

What's your reaction?

 

[THUMPER]

Like we still don't have a clue on how to build a football team.

Exactly!

I'd be a bit shocked, but I like Glenn a lot. I think DeCastro is the better player. Reminds me of Steve Hutchinson a bit. But either one immediately upgrades our OL and I think that is the number 1 needs on this team by a wide margin.

I could be happy with that

I agree with you. I think the pieces are in place for a Top 5 offense if the issues at guard are corrected.

Nicks and DeCastro at #14 can help elevate the offense to an elite level.

Yeah, and both Glenn and DeCastro are rising enough that a more realistic hypothetical, unfortunately, might be 'if the Cowboys pass on Glenn to take a CB, how would you feel?'

I'd feel crappy for that one as well, *especially* if we don't get any OGs during FA.

Issue at C too.

 

[Stash]

Issue at C too.

I think that if you get both Nicks and DeCastro, the winner of an open competition between Costa, Kowalski, and Nagy would do just fine at center.

I think so, too. They won't be able to isolate and target the center position like they did this year. Hopefully, with a full offseason, one of those guys can step up to the plate.

CBs are drafted higher and paid more than guards for a reason. Just cause our team needs interior help doesn't change this fact. The basic assumption that is said there is one that shouldn't be made, cause after all, it is a crap shoot.

Comparing the value of an 'elite level G' outweights a 'very good CB'. But really, how do we know which deserves the label of 'elite'.

Point blank of the matter is every GM in the NFL would take an elite CB over and elite G with no questions asked. I'm sure when Revis came out, it wasn't known how elite he would be. This is the risk you take, but as of right now, I would rather wait at least til the CBs workout before I say none of them even has the possibility of being elite from where we pick.

But there isn't an elite CB available.

That's kind of the whole premise of my argument.

At best there are very good CBs available and the ones who will be there have question marks.

DeCastro is as highly touted as a player at his position can be.
