Dallas Cowboys Draft Needs - In order (My Opinion)
1) Left Guard - Need a starter - Assuming Tyler Smith stays at LT
2) Running Back - Tony Pollard needs a complement and is only on the Franchise Tag
3) Defensive Tackle - Assuming Hankins resigns still need depth and more certainty at the 1T
4) Tight End - Like the potential of Ferguson and Hendershot but would like someone with a different skill set
5) Cornerback - Set for next year but lots of decisions need to be made next off season
6) Safety - Same as above
7) Linebacker - Not much depth behind LVE and Clark but expect this could be filled in the 2nd wave of free agency
Thinking at the 26th spot. - Hoping anyone of these prospects will be available: Obvious picks that won't be available such as Will Anderson aren't included:
1st - Would love if either Skoronski or Broderick Jones would fall - both can play guard or tackle at a high level - Probably not going to happen
2nd - Will one of the elite corners fall to 26? - Witherspoon, Gonzalez, Porter Jr - Again probably not going to happen
3rd - Maybe not a pressing need but if Myles Murphy or JSM falls to 26 - they are to talented to pass up but again probably won't be available
Would be ecstatic if any of these seven fell to 26:
Players I would pass on at 26:
1) Lukas Van Ness - Seems to be a very polarizing player
2) Darnell Wright or Anton Harrison - Awesome prospects but Tackle seems set with Smith and Steele
3) Michael Mayer - Think he is an awesome traditional tight-end but is similar (Better) to the skill set already on the roster
4) Dalton Kincaid - Back injuries scare me!
5) Brian Bresee - Injury concerns and isn't an ideal 1T
6) Mazi Smith - Only a 2 down player - to rich at 26
7) Any WR besides JSM - we are set for the next 2 years with Lamb, Cooks and Gallup as the top 3
8) Nolan Smith - Love him but think he is to small for are system at 235
Players I would think about taking at 26 who have better then average chance of being available : Not is order again my opinion
1) Bijan Robinson - Generation talent - He fits a need and can control him for 6 year cheap with the franchise tag
2) Darnell Washington - Unique talent that brings a different skillset then the others
3) Brian Branch - Can play safety or corner at a high level and both positions will be needed in 24
Players I like but would hope we could trade down a couple of spots at pick up an extra 3rd round pick: Not is order again my opinion
1) Jahmyr Gibbs - I understand he is similar to Pollard but think there is a clear drop after the top 2 running backs
2) O'Cyrus Torrance - Need pick - starting LG - Tyler Smith and Torrance could solidify the left side for a decade
3) Steve Aliva - Again need pick but with a little more flexibly - Smith and Aliva - Decade
Players I would target in the 2nd - Don't like options in most draft simulations: Also depends on 1st round selection and who I think will be available:
1) Sam LaPorta - Don't see much of a difference between him and the top prospects
2) Cody Mauch - Like the player - might take a year to get stronger
3) Matt Bergeron - Tackle convert to Guard
4) Jaylon Johnson - Love the physicality of the player in the secondary
5) Keeanu Benton - 1T that dominated the senior bowl
6) Siaka Ika - 1T - Didn't test well is a concern but might be worth the risk
7) Jack Campbell - Awesome talent that can do it all at linebacker
Not worth going any farther because of the uncertainty of the draft and the fact that I'm not a draft expert!
