I am all for getting the best CB in the draft we can. Two actually. However, the more I think about it, the more I feel we need to get our #1 WR of the future this year, while we have two #1s. After watching this highlight tape of Malcolm Kelly, I would even be willing to trade up several spots to get him.

He reminds me of Michael Irvin, the way he works the slant, & goes over the middle. He gets deep often, and has great hands to pull the tough catches in. Check out this link:

Looks plenty fast enough. He just flat out looks the most natural catching the ball of any wide reciever in this draft.

I don't even need to watch the tape, I've seen enough of him with his consistent 1 handed catches that look like he's catchign a tennis ball in his hands and makes it look effortless, almost like the ball had radar and goes right to his hands and his hands have a magnet that just sticks the football to his hands, he will have the best hands in the NFL the second he's drafted, plus he's a huge target and does it ALL!
I have been wanting this guy with our #22 pick for some time, just have to wait till his pro day to see if he'll fall to us since he didn't go to combine.
If he falls to #19, I agree, lets trade up and snatch him right out from under the Skins nose!
You cant' find one flaw in his game!
Give Romo another weapon is never a bad thing, and give him Kelly to throw to for the rest of his career and that way he'll always have a true #1 W.R.!

Like I said in my MOCK DRAFT I had a few days ago, I'd love him at #22, and wouldnt' mind getting Manningham also, it woudl give Romo a great combo of the huge target and the speed guy, a FUTURE T.O./Glenn for his career plus it would create a TON of mismatches the next few years with T.O. also!

Here's my mock I posted in case you missed it, and like I said, we can always get two good corners later while REALLY ADDING some FIREPOWER to this offense that would make it unstoppable!

My REVISED MOCK w/ one TRADE!
Trade our #28 and our 3rd and 5th rounder for the Falcons two 2nd rounders #37 and #48, it works out to 820 points we're giving up and getting back 950 in points, but that's what usually happens, teams moving up usually pay a little more and the trade value chart is just a rough example and never are trades EXACT in points!

For this mock I'm assuming the top 4 corners are off the board DRC/McKelvin/Jenkins/Talib!
So IMO no other corner is worth the 22nd pick (I'd be SHOCKED if Cason goes in round 1 after running above 4.5)

#22: W.R. Malcolm Kelly/James Hardy

We NEED to get another W.R. and need to get one NOW so that in another year or two he can be ready to take over as the #1 W.R., giving Romo more weapons is NEVER a bad thing!

#37 round 2: R.B. Felix Jones
Would be good value to get Jones at this point, some people want Charles or Johnson,I do too, but that's at the end of round 2, I think if people knew or thought Jones would be there at the end of round 2, they would take him over Johnson and Charles, but if you wanna substitute in one of the other guys here, go for it, I'm pickign Jones since it's my draft. :)

#48 W.R. Mario Manningham

Yes, I'm going W.R./R.B. then W.R. again!
Manningham was ranked about #20 overall till he ran his 40, but make no mistake he's got football speed and is a deep threat regardless of his 40 time.
AGAIN, I'm going by value and if he's here, would be GREAT VALUE!!!!!!
Talk about giving our offense weapons, we add our BIG GUY #1 W.R. of the future in Malcolm Kelly and now add our slot speed guy in Manningham also, we now have ALL our skill players on offense locked up for Romo's career once we resign Barber!

#59 our 2nd rounder: C.B. Charles Godfrey

We all know we need a C.B. and Godfrey being 6'-1 212 and running a 4.4 has tons of upside!

Gave up our 3rd rounder to Atlanta!

4th rounder C.B. Zach Bowman, Boom or Bust, and if he booms he's be a HUGE addition, multiple knee injuries slides him down the draft board, but he ran a 4.38 in the 40 at the combine and appears to be healthy, was rated a 1st rounder before injuries and could be the steal of the draft in round 4.

5th Gave up to Atlanta!

6th C./G. Fernando Velasco 6'-4 328 who plays center and guard, great backup we MUST HAVE for next year!

7th C.B. Jake Ikegwounu (take a flyer on a guy who will miss all of 08' season) put him on IR and see what he's got the folliwng year when we will probably need another corner with Henry most likely gone, besides most of our roster is already set in stone and I don't think a 7th rounder has a shot in hell at making our team anyway!

So here's our HAUL!

W.R. Malcolm Kelly
R.B. Felix Jones
W.R. Mario Manningham
C.B. Charles Godfrey
C.B. Zach Bowman
C./G. Fernando Velasco
C.B. Jake Ikegwounu

Gives us TWO good corners we need, and a 3rd we put in IR for a year who should of been a 1st rounder if not for his injury, we get the backup C./G. that we are gonna need, and of course we add not ONE, not TWO, but THREE "WOW" players on offense!
We'd have ALL our offensive skill position players in place for Romo's entire career, so for the next 7 years, all we need to do in the draft and F/A is add O-lineman and DEFENSE!

Thoughts?
I'd absolutely LOVE if the draft fell like this, it would make our offense UNSTOPPABLE, give us two good corners we need, and we'd be SET on offense for Romo's entire career other than a few O-lineman here and there!
Go ahead, pick it apart or say it with me, HOLY SH#T, I'd do backflips for WEEKS if the draft went like this!
