Trade down pick up a 2nd and still take LVE.
He may not even make it to 19. Behind them the stealers and eagles like him as well.Trade down pick up a 2nd and still take LVE.

I think he's like Kiper and waits until draft day to release his final mockSo who does Jason say Dallas takes?
His job is to evaluate the players, not really get the inside scoop on what the teams are doing. Notice how he only publishes one mock draft instead of 4-5 like the mock draft specialists.I think the problem with Mayock’s mock drafts is exactly the opposite.
I think he picks players based solely on who he feels is the best player and who he thinks fits best with any particular team. I honestly don’t think he does any homework or research on info coming out of the teams themselves.
The Cowboys are a perfect example. They are usually very transparent leading up to the draft. If the draft fell the way he said it would, our front office would have Leighton Vander Esche, D.J. Moore, Rashaan Evans, and James Daniels (possibly even Harold Landry) ahead of Sutton on their board.
Yes, they spent time with Sutton, but he is a Round 2 prospect. But all MM sees is that Sutton is the receiver most like Dez, and so the lazy conclusion is to assign Courtland Sutton to Dallas.
I am at a loss to understand why Mayock is heralded as such a Draft Guru at NFL Network when he seems to do so little work attempting to find out the inside scoop on what the teams are actually coveting in Round 1.

He obviously thinks Dallas ranks Sutton differently. Pretty simpleLet's look at Mayock's Top 100 released yesterday:
Does reaching for his own 2nd round WR make any sense at 19? The guy should be in play at 50 according to his list.
13. Rashaan Evans, LB, Alabama
18. Harold Landry, DE, Boston College
20. Leighton Vander Esch, LB, Boise State
25. D.J. Moore, WR, Maryland
27. Calvin Ridley, WR, Alabama
41. Courtland Sutton, WR, SMU
48. Christian Kirk, WR, Texas A&M
49. James Washington, WR, Oklahoma State
50. Anthony Miller, WR, Memphis
54. D.J. Chark, WR, LSU

A Landry in Dallas....makes sense.Cowboys wont pass on Landry in this situation.I think Landry will go before 15 but if he is there @ 19 then he will be the pick.
