Reminds me of the early day 3 guys Green Bay (Ted Thompson, not fraud Mike McCarthy) used to try and draft every year.

They have done everything they can to find a good one and they need to add a good one. It will be interesting to see who they end up with. They have the advantage of interviewing them. I'll trust whatever they do. They need to hit because Tolbert and Gallup let them down. I suspect that they will draft a receiver in the 1st or 2nd round. One of JSN, Hyatt, Flowers, Mims, Downs, Dell, or Palmer.

I am open to more of a slot receiver or more of a modern TE, it would add more depth to our attack

It’s a really bad WR class. Addison and Q. Johnston have busy written all over them.

I'd be OK with that as well. If Tolbert continues to suck and the late-rounder doesn't work out, we always have another year to try to address the position. Not sure what next year's receiver class looks like, though. Houston and Fehoko could be thrown in as young guys we need to get a longer look at as well.

For me, it’s Flowers, Mingo, or Rakim Jarrett (my sleeper) or bust.

There are other receivers I like at different spots in the draft (Tre Tucker, Rashee Rice, etc.) but am not completely enamored with.

I wouldn’t be mad if we nabbed JSN but I’m not pining away for him.

I’m still on the Tolbert train. Kid was a beast with translatable skills coming out of S. Alabama. I really was shocked he struggled as much as he did to catch on. Granted, you can’t tell what’s between the ears.

14 in Dane Brugler's top 100 and that doesn't even include Tank Dell, Charlie Jones, or Bryce Ford-Wheaton. Edge is the only position with more players in the top 100.

Is Gibbs a pass catching threat?

It’s been reported that one of the reasons the Cowboys made the Cooks trade (and looked into OBJ and others) is because of how weak the WR draft class is.

Maybe a better WR than some of the highly rated WRs in this draft.

You probably don't know this, but I wonder how that compares to other years.

Is Gibbs a pass catching threat?

Yes, it is a strength in his game.

I don't know, but the Cowboys have been busy evaluating the 1st and 2nd round receivers. They certainly want one. They need to get a good one on a rookie contract.

His 11th ranked CB was at #69.

I don't have it in front of me but I thought he had about 14 in the top 100.

I suspect that they are getting receivers from everywhere including this draft because of how bad Tolbert and Gallup were last year.

At what pick?

Flowers R1
Mingo R2
Jarrett R3-4

Yes, it is a strength in his game.

Where would Gibbs rank as a pure WR relative to the WRs in this draft?

He is bigger than many of the WRs at 199 pounds. Many of the short WRs in this draft are under 180.

Hard to say, he is too good of a running back to be thought of as a wr.
