If this player fell to 24 would you …

I honestly believe he's one of the players Jerry had in mind about moving up. From what I've heard, as one GM tweeted, his character and football IQ is off the chart which allows him to play faster than the conventional 40 time. Probably remind Cowboy fans of Sean Lee...

There was talk about Dallas possibly trading up for him if he reached pick 14. I forgot where I heard it. But that would cost picks 24, 56, and 176. He's not getting past the Eagles.

You can't base everything on a 40 time. There's what you call adrenalin speed, or fear speed that can't be duplicated in a controlled environment. Jerry Rice ran a 4.6 and I never saw him get run down in his prime by anyone not named Darrell Green.

I'm pulling for Pitre, personally, falling in the 2nd round.

Fat chance, I know.

If not, I'd shoot for Smoke Monday in the 5th round and roll with who I've already got.

Fear not. He might actually reach pick 56. But IMO, if they really wanted him, they'd probably have to trade up a few spots.

This is a weird draft. There are a ton of good players looking to go early to mid 2nd round. They can't all go, so some have to fall.

No deal.......I'm not giving up 24 AND 56. Perhaps 24, 88, and a couple of 5th-rounders. Losing 56 could cost me Williams or a quality G/T.

I'm just saying what it would take to trade up to 14 from 24. That's the bare minimum. Picks 24, 88, and all four 5th rounders doesn't come close.

Sam Williams? He could make it to pick 88. He wouldn't be falling far. I got him at 86 on the big board I'm looking at.
 
It’d require some pretty significant changes to the defense but I wouldn’t hate it. You’d essentially be using Hamilton & Kearse as WILL/SAM and ideally throw in some of Iowa’s 3-5-3 concepts.

I think you can make it work . Hamilton & Kearse have your back while Parsons and hopefully another edge player in the draft are front 7 creating havoc,
 
This draft really needs to be about the trenches on both sides of the ball but Hamilton is tempting but to give up what it would take to get him by moving up too costly . At 24 without having to give up anything sure but not by trading up . The Washington outfit seem very interested in Hamilton from what I’m reading. Jack Del Rio & Rivera can plug him in and make that D much better .

If he's there at 24, which I find highly unlikely to impossible, you take him. I'll be honest, I wouldn't be upset if the Cowboys traded up with Baltimore to get him. If worse came to worse, we can get a starting OL in the 3rd. Parsons can help on the DLine.
