First time I've seen Wyatt ranked above Davis.
I think his inside linebacker rankings are dead on.
Cameron Thomas moving up boards and looking like a possible first round pick. I like him.
Tyler Smith as the 7th ranked tackle makes sense but I think a moving him to guard he'd be one of the top 3-4 IOL.
Hate seeing Dameon Pierce moving up the boards. He was a back I'd hoped they cold pick up in the 4th or 5th.
My pet cat Clint Ratkovich making Mel's list.
Descent year for kickers. I wonder if Dallas can afford a RFA kicker or if it wouldn't be wiser to spend a late draft pick?

Thanks for posting this.

Lots of interesting stuff from Mel. JoJo at safety? Good hybrid player. OG is stacked at the top...Cowboys better go get one.

 

[Kalyan]

no DT or TE in top 25, so we may be picking the best TE or DT in the draft, if we go with one of those options
