I dont like the steelers trade. We should get more going from 12 to 21. The trade value differential makes Alex High Smith a mid 2nd round. I dont think he is worth that. 28. With 2 years remaining.. I would want at least a 2nd round pick.

That's why I had the Cowboys receiving a 3rd. In 13 games last season, he had 50 tackles, 15 TFL's, 44 pressures, 9.5 sacks, and a top 5 edge run D grade.
I like that he'd come in having plenty of experience in the 3-4, and also plays the nickel. He's on a contract that's quite manageable for a well rounded Edge, and is a high character guy.
