[LatinMind]

For everybody to participate.

Dallas keeps Austin
Dallas doesnt resign Spencer
Dallas releases Livings or Bernadeau

Dallas signs NT, not a difference maker but serviceable

Mock has went this way so far

Jags: Damonte Moore DE Texas AM
Raiders: Star Lotulelei DT Utah
Eagles: Jake Mathews T Texas AM
Lions: Dee Milliner CB Bama
Browns: Geno Smith QB WV
Cardinals: Taylor Lewan T Michigan
Bills: Manti Te'o LB ND
Jets: Sheldon Richardson DL Mizzu
Titans: Dion Jordan DE Oregon
Chargers: Chance Warmack G Bama
Dolphins: Jonathon Hankins DL OSU
Bucs: Jarvis Jones LB Georgia
Panthers: Keenan Allen WR Cal
Saints: Kenny Vaccarro S Texas
Rams: Jonathon Cooper G UNC
Steelers: Barkevious Mingo OLB FSU

Who do you pick?

 

[robert70x7]

Bjoern Werner

 

[tm1119]

Yeah Werner is a top 10 player in this draft, if he's there at 18 its a no brainer.

 

[sureletsrace]

Yeah. Werner in a heartbeat, especially with them not resigning Spencer.

 

[Risen Star]

I question whether Werner can play in a 3-4. Or at least to the tune of being worth a 1st round pick. He's a natural 4-3 end.

For that reason alone, I go with Sylvester Williams. I know he's 24, but just give me 6 or 7 years of dominant NT play and I'll be happy. He should be near plug and play at that age.

Who do you pick?

Bjoern Werner

Jake Matthews is returning to school.

If you remove Werner due to Matthews not being available, then here are some names that have been discussed at various times as being possible mid-round picks:

Eric Fisher
Sam Montgomery
Ezekiel Ansah
Cordarrelle Patterson
Jesse Williams
Matt Barkley
Lane Johnson
Oday Aboushi
Kevin Minter
Alec Ogletree
John Jenkins
Dallas Thomas
Sylvester Williams

[Risen Star]

I miss BPA Risen Star.

Ah, but the BPA for the Cowboys might be Williams because of that concern.

Can he drop in coverage? If he can't and we're not making a move back to a 4-3, what do you do with him? Bulk him up to play end?

I think we'll be moving to the 4-3.

 

[Risen Star]

I think we'll be moving to the 4-3.

You may be right now.

Then Werner. Super steal at 18.

 

[robert70x7]

You may be right now.

Then Werner. Super steal at 18.

I have to read up on so many more players now.

 

[Goldenrichards83]

Alec Ogletree. Him Lee and Carter would be epic in a 4-3.

 

[Future]

Alec Ogletree. Him Lee and Carter would be epic in a 4-3.

You almost have to consider that, and hope to find some DLine value later.

 

[Oh_Canada]

You cannot have a successful 4-3 without defensive lineman.

If Cowboys move to 4-3:

Werner and it's not even close.

If they stay in 3-4:

Jonathan Jenkins...with Rat gone you have a major hole at NT even with the journeyman.

 

[IAmLegend]

If you move to 4-3 it's Werner in a heartbeat. If you stay 4-3, I'd try really hard trade back a few spots and pick up another 2nd or 3rd if possible, and then go BPA on the O-Line or D-Line. But Werner won't fall to 18.. sorry.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Werner for sure

 

[Risen Star]

We shouldn't dismiss the big DTs if we go 4-3. We could still use them here. Vince Wilfork is just as beastly in a 4-3 and he is a 3-4.
