I dunno, I can see him going in the first. Teams often reach for QBs. Look at the Lockers, Gabberts and the Ponders. Not saying they won't be good, but they didn't deserve getting picked in the 1st, imo.tantrix1969;5013735 said:
I think a second round grade for Bray is a fair one. I'd be mildly surprised if he slips to the third. I just don't see him lasting to the 4th.
Also remember that this isn't a stellar QB class. Geno Smith appears to be slipping and Barkley failed to meet people's expectations. This should help Bray and Glennon.

Yes he's had some off field issues and he may not have played to everyone's expectations, but I'd hardly call him a basket case.acheman;5013810 said:
He's a kid and kids sometimes do stupid things. Can he mature into a nfl qb? I'd like to think so... Will he be another Ryan Leaf? Possibly, it's hard to tell. He does have an electric arm and some Gm will roll the dice on him and I think he'll be taken sooner than later. And as a late first to early third round pick, he won't be a liability that Leaf was as a top five pick.

What makes him a basket case? Because in a draft profile on espn or CBS its says he has had some????off field issues. I mean what did he do to warrant basket case?
And to others, what makes him a 3rd-4th round pick? Again, espn, CBS, Mel Kiper projections. Does anyone here watch any game film on these guys before they comment, cause if so there is no way you could tell me that Geno Smith, Matt Barkley or any other QB look as good as Bray does.
Is he perfect? Absolutely not, but from what I have seen from the qbs in this draft he looks like the best of a weak class. I would have no problem taking him in the second, have Romo look over his shoulder for the first time ( I am not a Romo hater, I do support him) and have some good pressure put on him. I am sure a lot of people didn't understand the packers selecting Rodgers when they had Favre but how did that pick work out for GB?

He's been my pet cat for months. I've been saying we should draft him. He's got elite talent and is vastly underrated imo because he didn't win a lot of games in college.. Well talk to his defense who gave up 40 points a game. Worst defense in the SEC last year.
I'd take him at the end of the 2nd cause he won't last much longer that. But I think he ends up going early 2nd anyways. Arizona and Buffalo are both interested in him, and he's rising up draft boards after an impressive showing at the combine.
Also, it likely won't happen since we just hired Dooley, his former HC at Tennessee, who didn't get along with Bray. It's no secret they had a poor relationship last season.

To everyone saying "not in the 2nd round, maybe later in the draft."
First of all, Bray won't be there later in the draft. He'll be a 2nd round draft pick, and I wouldn't be surprised if some team took him at the very end of the 1st after his impressive showing at the combine. I've read that teams are really high on him right now, esp in a weak QB class.
Secondly, QB is THEE prime position of the NFL. If you think a player is "your guy," then you take him early when he's available. You don't just hope that he lasts another round for you. Cause he won't. Other positions, yea, you can do that. But not at the QB position. If he's your guy, then you take him when you can, even if it's a round earlier than you'd like.
Not saying Dallas will, I'm just saying that's the general rule for QB's. I hope we draft Bray, but I doubt we do. I think he goes to Arizona or Buffalo in the early 2nd.

Unless we literally think there isn't a guy to draft who can make the team, I don't draft any QB this year.
Draft a QB and you have to carry 3 on the roster, which we don't like or need. No QB drafted as a project/future hope will beat out Orton as #2. Either wait until you feel Romo is in his final 2 years or until you see a draft able QB who can be #2. Otherwise you need to find a QB to stash on the practice squad who can run the scout team.

Our first 4 picks should involve some combo of OG/OT, DT/DE, FS, RB. If he is there in the 5th, then sure.
They have a capable QB starting for 3 more years. They have a capable backup right now. Draft a QB next year when the class is better, and groom him behind Romo for 2-3 years, along with a qb we can draft the year after. This year seems too early, especially since we only have 6 picks, with glaring holes in need of starters, and competition. I'm all for getting a QB in the draft, the boys just don't need one this year, and it already being a weak class, means we will probably have other choices to choose from in BPA each round.
