And it isn't about the Cowboys, but about what the Eagles do. I do not want them to get Robinson or Gibbs. I'm thinking if they don't take Robinson at 10 then they will definitely take Gibbs with their 2nd pick. Gibbs will just be a nightmare to defense with what they already have on offense.

If they don't take Robinson at 10 then I hope we take Gibbs at 26, unless they trade up ahead of us and get him. They cannot get Gibbs. And I know this isn't the way to draft (trying to block another team from taking someone), but hopefully Gibbs is high on our board anyway if this scenario comes to past.

I don’t care about what other teams do. Eagles had a pro bowl RB last year and he didn’t make a difference against us. 49ers had CMac and he didn’t make a difference against us.

I’m worried about us reaching for a need over taking BPA at a premium position.

Eagles taking Bijan is my worse nightmare in this draft. This would be like my sister marrying a die hard,loud mouth Eagles fan.

The reason the Eagles ran over teams was because of their line of scrimmage. Howie is not stupid. He will draft line of scrimmage. Then laugh at the dummies who grab shiny toys and then drive the tank over their candy a$$e$. Bijan is going to the Falcons from everything being reported.

I honestly could care less that they do. Because whether it's Gibbs or Robinson or Carter or Anderson or whomever, if they hit on one or both their first rounders that's going to be a great player for them.

Frankly, them getting Gibbs doesn't scare me. They love to rotate backs and Hurts drives that offense, not the RBs. I'd be more worried if they added another stud pass rusher or a dominant OL or DL. Miles Sanders had a really good year for them last year. Is Gibbs going to be sooooooo much better? He might be better but is he going to take them to another level? Not really.

Exactly my thoughts as well. No way in hell do I want Gibbs on the Eagles. Gibbs , dt, ol in the first 3 rds and Im happy. Toss in a te in the 4th

Why worry about what other teams do? Just a total, total waste of time and energy.

Cowboys will be to obsessed with team building and doing the smart thing long term.

The time to strike is now.

The NFC is weak and we have a top 3-4 team.

So Gibbs is the right pick because we need an electric player on offense like him.

Will McDonald is likely our pick though. The smart safe pick that may take a couple years to develop.

I think they're all about Carter with the 1st pick and will trade up if they don't think and think he'll be at 10.

Putting him with Davis and Dean makes a lot of sense and they could end up with the best interior triangle D in the league. I thought Dean was a better pick than Davis.

Eagles could always pass on Robinson and Gibbs and possibly get Achane and his 4.32 speed at pick #62. Achane's speed, moves, and pass catching ability in their offense would be dangerous. Achane was deadly in the SEC behind a less than stellar OLine at A&M. Also, he solves the problem of their punt and kick return issues.

I don't know if this is any better but Pete Schrager just did his second mock draft and has Robinson going to the Vikings and Gibbs going to the Giants one pick ahead of us. FWIW we got Will McDonald IV

I’ll be pissed if the Giants get Gibbs one pick ahead of us. And it might happen. I think the Cowboys would be happy with McDonald though. I’m just not sure he has a huge impact as a rookie.

We'd get to face him at least twice a year. McDonald would be good value.

Giants already have a bigger version of Gibbs and some holes to fill

I’ve seen more and more people mocking Gibbs to the Chargers. I don’t know if they heard something or what, but a lot of people have been saying it. Saying that everybody is giving them a WR, but what they need on offense is speed and Gibbs has that in spades. Says he can catch just like a WR or carry the ball.

… so, Gibbs might not even make it to 26 or to the Giants pick.

Right behind Dallas, Cincy or Buffalo might take him and of course, Philly could really use him at 30.
