4. Dallas Cowboys: Paxton Lynch, QB, Memphis



Cowboys fans got a glimpse of what life without Tony Romo could be like this season, and it wasn't pretty. No veteran journeyman or practice squad fixture (Kellen Moore) can replace a franchise quarterback. Especially in Big D. Barring a trade (Manziel?) or a notable free-agent acquisition, the Cowboys should look to pick Romo's successor this year. Lynch is 6-foot-7, surprisingly mobile and very accurate. He's a mold of clay, still, and could use a few years of learning from Romo before being elevated to the No. 1.

Works for me!

Hopefully Commanders won't screw up our chance to get him or Goff by losing to us next Sunday.

The draft rarely falls the way people expect it to. These QB's (Goff, Lynch, et al) could be picked in the first 5, or could slide to the middle (or later) of the first round. All I know for sure is that what these mocks look like today will look much different by the time the daft gets here. Heck, they'll look a lot different after the Senior Bowl and then look a lot different again after the combine. There will be a lot of good/entertaining discussion from now until the draft, but I'm not going to fret over anything just yet.

I'd be okay with Lynch or Goff. I think they both could develop into solid NFL starters.

Lynch vs. Goff is destined to be the #1 discussion in the draft zone for the next four months.

And there's a decent chance that neither is the pick even if they are available. I'm still not convinced Jerry will take one that early, though it's my personal preference.
