Oh man don't get me started on the draft. We'll be up al night. I'll have a keen eye on Brooks and Parham of VA this year. Allen from TN and Lawson DE/OLB from NC ST. This kid is unreal athletically.
Brooks is a true stud, but he'll be long gone before the Cowboys get a chance to draft him... I'm a long-time UVa fan (I live about an hour and a half from Charlottesville), so I'd be thrilled to be wrong about that...
At this VERY early date, my Cowboys draft strategy would focus on FS, RT and WR in the first 3 rounds... this draft is fairly strong at the first 2 positions, less deep at WR...
My approach would have the Boys looking at either Jimmy Williams from Virginia Tech or Jason Allen from Tennessee at FS in the first round, or perhaps Michael Huff from Texas in the second...
At WR, I'd look at Todd Watkins from BYU, Martin Nance from Miami-Ohio or Travis Wilson from Oklahoma in the 2nd...
At OT, Marcus McNeill from Auburn, Erick Winston from Miami or Jonathan Scott from Texas would make nice first round picks, but I'd wait until later in the first day, 3rd round range, and cross my fingers that Andrew Whitworth from LSU, Zach Strief from Northwestern or Jeremy Trueblood from Boston College would still be on the board...
A draft like this would address some of the Cowboys' biggest needs going into this season... of course, the ratings of these players is likely to fluctuate some over the coming months, this is just intended as a basic draft philosophy for the 06 draft...
