Richardson.

If that scenario unfolded and we went with Warmack, I'd be pretty disappointed.

Warmack is my choice. Solid player that has gotten better each year at Bama. I don't know if it translates to the next level but far as his career goes thus far, it seems promising.

Richardson is a good player but he's not a player i feel like we must have in this draft. I remember Richardson coming out of highshcool highly rated 5* recruit but kinda had a quiet career at Mizzou IMO. You would have thought, that Richardson would have a similair college career compared to Glen Dorsey with all the hype coming out of highschool. Not really consistent enough to take at 18..

Never really kept up with Vaccaro at Texas but from the film I've seen on him this past year, he doesn't seem to have the ability to make an instant impact on this Cowboys team. Stats are comparable to Eric Reid (LSU) who I think is a second round pick type of player at best.

I would be thrilled if Dallas had those three to choose from! Warmack and Richardson are about even as far as their ability in the league, so the real question is which position Dallas values more. Given how they have criminally ignored the offensive line in past years, I would be shocked if they went with Warmack over a difference maker on defense.

Maybe he and Doug Free should get together and tryout for the Olympic figure skating.

To answer the question, I'm inclined to say Richardson based on positional value, but I wouldn't be displeased with Warmack.

What 'Squach said.

The real nightmare scenario would be having all three on the board and watching Jerry choose door #4...

If the Giants like him, we should probably get him. They are much better at drafting OL than we are.

I would agree with that historically. They seem to be better at evaluating talent for what they do and coaching it up. The one thing I will say is that the Giants run a power scheme. They don't run a Zone Blocking scheme so you have to consider that as well.

We need DL help but Garrett is so bad at scheming that we need an OLine that can give Romo a lot of extra time in the pocket because of all of the downfield throws we use.

We put so much pressure on our OL and when you don't gameplan around having a bad Oline then you just have a mess like we have had.

I agree. Garrett is so bad that we need to have NFL quality talent along the offensive line.

That or get one of those coaches who doesn't need blocking.

Warmack's the best player in this draft. So....not a tough call for me.

I have a feeling most people will say Warmack, because our OL is woeful. But I'm going to go with Richardson, because that dude is a beast and could be the stud of our new defense. If he's there, get an OL & safety in the second and third round.
My first thought would be Richardson, but after considering two things I would swing strongly toward Warmack. The two things I considered were........

1. What do I have following each player in round 2 and 3 if I pass on them?

>Richardson--possible, maybe not probable, players available after 1st round.
S. Williams, K. Short, J. Hankins, J Williams, J. Jenkins,,B. Logan, Br. Williams,J. Hill

>Warmack--Possible players after 1st round.
L. Warford-not zbs player, A. Bailey-zbs??, and a number of OTs that are projected to move inside in the NFL

For me we would have a better chance finding a defensive player closer to Richardson in the 2nd or 3rd than we would of finding one similar to Warmack.

2. Which line could survive better if their player was not selected? To me there's no question the Dline would survive better than the Oline.

In summary, I would hate to pass on Richardson, but after asking myself the 2 questions above it's obvious what is better for the team--Warmack.

He can also look like a guy on skates against a good run blocking OL at times. His game is penetration and he's good at that but when he gets blocked, he gets blocked pretty well a lot of times.

I was really really high on Richardson earlier this year, but he can definitely get blocked--and sometimes, fairly easily. I am not so high on him anymore. I think he has some serious flaws as a player.

In this scenario, I'd take Warmack. Just cause Vaccaro playing FS is a big question mark and Richardson, to me, has a pretty big bust factor.

Agree totally on Mo. Looks like our Scouts got caught up in all the hype about him. Maybe the Scouts are the problem?

Warford, Long, Winters, Pugh, Bailey, Thornton, Thomas.

All of these guys are either guards or project to Guard from Tackle.

richardson case closed. I think he is going to be a impact player. I think we could even use him at DE against heavy run teams. He is that quick and good. Plus I seen highlights of him smashing RG3 all game:yourock:

Great post! Agree 100%. But I go Richardson, only because I think he's going to be a beast. If it was Warmack and Sly that's easy.
