Are the Cowboys better off taking a position of need or the best player at the 9th spot? Gil Brandt, NFL.com
David, if you take the best player -- provided you are not getting out of a plateau -- they probably take Tyron Smith, a fine offensive tackle from USC who is going to play a long time, or J.J. Watt. I don't think they will take a DB with that pick. Again, I think the value is going to be much greater in the second round for a defensive back.

Gil saying something like that is making me want to draft this guy even more.

I'd still rather have Carimi but this is a good endorsement.
