My draft plan

[J-man]

How many first picks do we have? Because last I looked, it's going to take a few more than we have to do anything like this.

Cowboys FO should invite 'eromeopolk' to their headquarters ASAP to reveal how they can get these moves done.

Lmao

1. Sign Ereck Flowers OG Miami
2. Trade up for Evan Neal OT Alabama
3. Must draft Jordan Davis.
All you have to do is watch this and you know who is the only player worth trading up for and who is the player you trade back up into the first round to get.



The Arlington Jonesboys have given up 4.5 yards per carry the last 2 years. You do not win or win the big games giving up that kind of rushing average. So, Jordan Davis is my must have player. His only knock is that he needs consistent motivation. LB Ray Lewis greatest years was with huge DTs in front of him. Parsons is a LB worth investing in a DT.

Evan Neal is the only player the Cowboys maybe can trade up to get. His uncle played for the Cowboys (Jimmie Jones) and his other uncle kill the Cowboys at RB (Cleveland Gary). He has some issues over extending but he will stop the Tyron Smith merry go round at LT. When you play LT for Nick Saban, you can play football.

Atlanta traded up from #26 to #6 for Julio Jones in 2011.

They gave up these picks to make that trade:

• 2011 first-round pick (#26)
• 2011 second-round pick
• 2011 fourth-round pick
• 2012 first-round pick
• 2012 fourth-round pick

You don't have to spend a first round pick to get a big body at DT. A lot of those type of guys go undrafted.

You don't have to trade up to get a quality guard. A lot of guards with day one starting potential can be found on day two. I'd rather we draft a linebacker in the first then to trade up to get a guard.

True, and as much as I cringe when I say it, a WR, if Olave is there.

Atlanta won that trade by a landslide. Cleveland, we love you.

I have a better idea.
Let's trade up for Evan Neal and use our second round pick to take Kayvon Thibodeaux.

Evan Neal is going to fall, trade up with you 2nd 2022 and no.1 and 3rd round pick in the 2023 draft which is a way better and deeper draft due to the QBs.

If Davis does not fall to you, he could fall because all he has been used for is run defense, trade Schultz and swap no.1 picks. You do not franchise a average starting TE. Schultz is not special. Hopefully someone else thinks he is special. If they do not get Jordan Davis, it is going to be the Cowboys Shaun Rogers mistake all over again.

Big people with the speed and athleticism of Jordan Davis do not fail in the NFL. They may not become a Hall of Fame player but the will start and make Pro Bowls at minimum...see Shaun Rogers.

I'm not knowledgeable enough about the draft position point value system (isn't there a new chart(s) out there that have replaced Jimmy Johnson's version?).

Does the chart you used calculate the Cowboys' unknown 3rd round 2023, 2022 2nd round = #56, and 2022 1st rd = #24 equal to at least no. 11 ----because that's the lowest spot Evan Neal has been
projected to land out of the 7 mocks I looked at.
The other 6 predictions are @ 8, 6, 5, 4, and 3 (twice).

And as for trading Schultz for a no.1 -- or ANY --draft pick... NO
Franchised players can't be traded - PERIOD.
Franchised players don't have a contract; they are technically free agents that are bound by their team due to being tagged. They are not "signed" players...therefore can't be traded.

Have not changed my mind. Evan Neal, and Jordan Davis are the best available players of need for the Jonesboys. When I said trade Schultz, I was thinking in or out of a package to trade up. Just get something more of value than 1/2 a 5th round pick they got for stupidly trading Cooper. Schultz is nothing special at TE and was a waste of a franchise tag (should have slapped it on Gregory (if they really wanted to keep him). Also, Schultz signed the franchise tag so he is under contract.

Evan Neal played as a freshman, Jordan Davis played as a freshman in the SEC and won championships. The Cowboys have given up 4.5 yards per carry 2 years in a row. A DE is not going to change that on the outside. So, Jordan Davis in my opinion is a must. I felt the same about Micah Parsons and 2022 should be another heavy defensive draft.

Ereck Flowers plays well as a OG and is very athletic, strong, and available. You put any LT next to him, he will help him out because not to many DT are going to bully +330 pounds. So finding the replacement for Tyron Smith can be done with or without Neal (has to be a premium round pick 2nd-4th round). I like Cross. But, I like Jordan Davis more. They just don't make players that big, fast, agile, and strong at DT every year. So, If they are trading up for Cross and not Davis, Jonesboys defense is still going to falter during November, December, and the playoffs (if the get in this year) during the running season.
