OL rankings

[TLCC]

For those of you who are interested in doing up mock drafts this might help. I did up a list of OL rankings of people that could potentially fall to the Cowboys. And rankings on where I think the Cowboys might rank them, of course I have no idea. So if an OL is better suited to a zone blocking scheme then I might not have him rated or he will be down in the rankings. The collection in the 7th round are not listed in order just a bunch of guys who are likely either going to be late picks or UDFA's. The NDS is where NFL Draft Scout has them rated.

The Cowboys should draft at least 2 OL this year and could draft as many as 4.

Let me know who you want, who should be higher, who should be lower, or who I might have missed list that should be on here.

TLCC super post

 

[Biggems]

you know what i find stupid.....sites that rank players and then have a mock with that player a round or two above or below the round in which he was projected by that very site.

 

[28 Joker]

Thank you. I'm going to check on 6 of those lesser known guys right now.

A couple of those guys are T/G/C guys.

 

[Biggems]

btw, no mention of Dallas Reynolds BYU?

The players in the bold blue fonts figure prominently on my draft spreadsheet, which is nearing completion... note that there are like 15 prospects who currently fall in the 5th to 7th round range...

 

[Biggems]

I'm going to assume that OT Ryan Delrosal of Dixie St will be a 7th-UDFA.

If he does indeed go undrafted, I hope we snatch him up quick. He will definitely be a project, but a player of his size and speed is something we could definitely use. If his footwork is anywhere near the upper level talent, then he should have no issues with speed rushers off the edge. If he is strong and sturdy in his stance, he should have no trouble with bull rushers......I am curious to see if he is a very good OL at a very small school....or if he is just a fast OL, with little to no proper technique, but is quick on his feet.

If Eric Wood falls to the 4th I will be estatic!!

 

[Biggems]

If Eric Wood falls to the 4th I will be estatic!!

It could happen, but I find it to have a low probability. Still......if we were able to wait till our first 4th rounder to get him.....like would be so sweet. This way we could address S and LB with our first two picks.

ok biggems fill me in on
OT Ryan Delrosal of Dixie St

ok biggems fill me in on
OT Ryan Delrosal of Dixie St

i just filled u in on everything i know...my post was all about questions that need to be answered. he is definitely a project...but i feel he could easily be stashed on the practice squad.

I think this is a real good year for tackles. I wouldn't be upset if we used our first pick on one if they drop. I was just looking at Jamon Meridith, and he looked good in the youtube clip I was watching. He looks like a legit LT. I'd take him in the 3rd, maybe even 2nd. Then again, I didn't see any SC games this year.
