Mock Draft
This is what I would do NOT what I think the Cowboys will do.
I had this all written out and done a month ago with, of course, Carsus of Bismarck arriving to Big D on a donkey and feeding everyone (even Stephen). I predicted the crucifixion at 1. I quoted the scripture of Parcells 9:31 - and they shall not pick him; and they'll say he is killed, but lookit, after three picks he shall rise again. It all tied in nicely. I even updated it to point out you couldn't spell Romans without R-a-m-s. How they had to move this offseason. They couldn't have Saint anywhere in their name after this. Los Angeles was more appropriate as in Lost your soul and truly Angel-less.
We were football saved. Just keep that roof closed during games and we were golden.
This should have had all happen. But we were once again Jerry Jonesed.
This franchise is dead. But let's play along as if this draft class matters.
1(4) Ezekiel Elliott RB Ohio St.
Don't take a RB in the first round. Or an OG. Or a RT. I say take impact players high. Elliott is an impact player providing you have the pieces and philosophy on offense to showcase his skills. Rookie of the year front runner.
2(34) Kevin Dodd DE Clemson
First round talent who could very well still be available at this point based off only one year of production. Emerging player who may end up the best pure pass rusher in this draft. With the size to be scheme versatile.
3(67) Nick Vannett TE Ohio St.
The most complete TE in this draft. Excellent blocker. Underutilized receiver. Red zone weapon. Witten's heir apparent.
4(101) Javon Hargrave DT South Carolina St.
Quick twitch developmental 3 tech still on the board due to the level of competition he has faced so far.
4(135) Blake Martinez ILB Stanford
Highly instinctive tackle machine will help immediately on special teams while competing for a job on defense.
6(189) Ryan Smith CB North Carolina Central
Former S moved to corner the last two years. Has the natural cover skills to surprise in the NFL.
6(212) Duke Williams WR Auburn
Wild card of the draft. If he's here he's worth the risk. Paging Calvin Hill.
6(216) Tyrone Holmes DE Montana
Nation's sack leader who seems to have fallen through the cracks. Great get off. Deserves a flyer and a Marinelli nickname.
6(217) Stephane Nembot T Colorado
Has the size, length and feet to potentially backup both tackle spots.
Note - Anyone's true mock draft occurs when the team is actually on the clock with their picks. Nobody knows what will be available at each pick. I guarantee you players you think could have gone in round 2 will be there in round 4. Happens every year.
What I did last year in the mock....
1(27) Eli Harold OLB Virginia - Little to note. Came on some towards the end of the year. 1 start.
2(60) Grady Jarrett DT Clemson - Couple of starts, couple of sacks. Promising rookie year.
3(91) Duke Johnson RB Miami - 7 starts as the Browns' most productive rookie. 61 catches.
4(127) Jaquiski Tartt S Samford - Took the starting job and ran with it. Huge rookie year.
5(163) JaCorey Shepherd CB Kansas - The Eagles felt so good about him in the summer that they traded Brandon Boykin. Then Shepherd blew his knee out a day later. Season over.
7(236) DeAndre Smelter WR Georgia Tech - Still coming back from an ACL tear. Niners hoping next year.
7(243) Sean Donnelly T Tulane - Went to camp with the Giants. Presently a free agent.

I think Jerry's approach to the QBs is this - If the guy we like falls to 4 we'll consider it but we're not making any effort to make it happen in trade. If that doesn't happen we'll probably see a mid round pick used on a guy like Prescott or Brissett. (Kept from March notes)
I believe Jerry is comfortable at RB. We may not see one taken this year. It would have to be a value choice if we do. I don't believe we'll walk into the war room on Thursday with RB on our mind. I mocked it because I would do it now. I don't believe they will. Elliott is special so maybe that trumps all in their mind. We shall see.
Having said that, I think the needs most pressing to frick and frack when the commish walks to the podium on Thursday will be DE and CB. We lost two DEs in the offseason with Hardy gone and Gregory suspended and clearly not trustworthy. DeMarcus Lawrence also had back surgery in the offseason and now he too is going to miss 4 games on a suspension. The team clearly wants to move on from Brandon Carr or at least cut his salary. Claiborne really got a one year flyer to salvage his career in Dallas. Scandrick is coming off a major injury. This will be the primary focus of our draft. I expect both positions to be addressed within the first 3 or 4 picks.
I can't wait to see Lionel Vital in our war room and look forward to reading the Lionel Vital is secretly running this team threads in the future once the McClay angle runs it's course. Shout out to Duane Allman. A fixture in our war room for many years.
Wouldn't it be nice to actually have a productive day 3? Somebody explain to me how a team can be so inept in the 4th thru 7th rounds yet pretty decent in UDFA. Is it because the Jones twins stop caring by that point?

We're one week away. My excitement level is at an all time low for the draft. Love the overall process as much as ever but the prospects for Dallas are a foregone conclusion. I tell it like I see it and I see the team has already made a fatal mistake and, to make things worse, lost him to a division rival. If I'm right, we are going to regret it.
But don't let me damper your enthusiasm. We could very well be a few more cornerbacks away from finally getting our swagger back and, damn it, we will get those cornerbacks next week.
Enjoy the draft.
