I am not going to simply name 1st rounders in these picks. You do what you want to with your pet cats though.
:catty:
QB...I don't particularly want us to Draft a QB, but I am not opposed to signing one as a UDFA to groom. The kid I like is Matt Nichols of Eastern Washington. He put up some unreal numbers, albeit against lesser competition, but so did Tony Romo.
RB...If we were to trade Choice or Barber for a Draft pick and need a RB (I don't expect us to) the guy I like is Laggarette Blount of Oregon. He is a bulldozer. He screwed up in 2009 but is not a bad kid. No denying his power with the ball in his hands. Someone will steal him in this Draft.
TE...I gotta go pure homer and say Rob Gronkowski from Arizona. If you have never seen this guy play you simply do not understand. He plays TE the way Marion Barber plays RB, with all he has. Great hands and DBs bounce off him like flies being swatted. Incredibly strong. We have no need for a TE, but if Bennett got traded this kid would be my immediate choice. Pure football mind.
WR...I admit it, I like big WRs who are mismatches for short CBs. Guys who are strong and hard to bring down. Guys who move the chains. I prefer that to lightning quick guys. That's just me. I started talking about him after week 1. Danario Alexander of Missouri. I just flat out like this kid. His production in 2009 was other worldly. I'd love for the Cowboys to take a chance on him.
OT...I know there are some concerns about Jason Fox of Miami, but I cant help but think high reward outweighs high risk. I like the way Fox attacks rushers and the nasty streak he has. Mid round steal IMO.
OG...Mike Johnson of Alabama. I do like Iupati and think if he is there at 27 we should grab him on potential ceiling alone. But if we ended up with Johnson in round 2 instead I wouldn't be the least bit upset. I like maulers who pull well on sweeps. This kid does and leaves pancakes in his wake.
C...John Estes of Hawaii. I admit Olsen of Notre Dame is the better pro prospect right now, but I think Estes could end up being the better guy. He reminds me so much of Kevin Mawae the way he takes the game personal. 6th or 7th round steal.
DE...Jared Odrick of Penn State. I enjoyed watching him this weekend and already liked him. I think he is the best 3-4 DE in this Draft unless Suh is played there by someone. He has a great motor and brings good pressure every play and can shed blockers for the tackle. What's not to like?
NT...Suh. Completely unreasonable to think we could get him, but I have never been more impressed with a DT/NT in my life. The Rams are stupid if they pass on him to take a suspect QB.
OLB...Not a team need with Spencer arriving in time for the Cowboys to be serious contenders, but I can't help liking Jerry Hughes of TCU. I have to admit though, Graham from Michigan in the Senior Bowl was more than anyone could handle.
ILB...Rolando McClain. If he were to be there and we passed on him I believe I'd flood Tucson with my wailing. Quite simply my favorite ILB since I was a Patrick Willis shill a few years ago.
CB...Akwasi Owusu-Ansah of IUP. I admit I like him more for his Special Teams abilities than any other reason, but I like the kid. I wouldn't be too upset at Javier Arenas for the same reasons though he will go higher.
FS...Robert Johnson of Utah. I first paid attention to him during my Sean Smith love affair last year. His skills to the football are quite good and he is flying under the radar.
SS...Myron Rolle. Some don't like him. I can't help it that I do. Character matters and he is a physical specimen with high intelligence on top of that. I'd love to roll the dice on him.
KR/PR...Brandon Banks of Kansas State. Yes, he's a midget. Yes, he made a mistake and tested positive for weed. He also runs a sub 4.3 time in the 40 and is a Special Teams return ace. A late round flier on him for the sake of Return Yardage advantages would thrill me. Taking him as a UDFA would make me even happier.
Your turn, or you can simply comment on these selections or others. Just as long as you have fun.
