20% chance Kancey is there at 26. 0% chance he is there at 58. Some are making some bad assumptions about him. He is not a liability against the run. He simply wins with speed, agility, quickness, superior use of his hands and effort as well as a lower pad level and center of gravity. I don't think he is going to end up a Cowboy but when we look back on this in a few years we will wish he was. IMO

Where do you think he’ll be drafted?

Man I just don’t like Bresee. I follow Clemson football pretty closely and I just don’t see it. I know he went through stuff nobody his age should, but on the field I just don’t like what I see.

He could bust just as easily as hit big IMO. I just wouldn’t risk it.

Heard many say the same. Never the same player after his first year.

I predict that all your guys listed for 58 go before pick 58 and Smith goes before pick 90.

He would be my pick unless someone falls like Robinson or Wright. Gibbs would be my second option. Both could be gone when we pick, though.

My favorite player in this draft is Devon Witherspoon and I’ve been battling depression because Dallas has zero chance of drafting him…
I like him and the OT from Northwestern but I know neither will get to us at 26. I would love the OT and put him at guard. I think he could be an All pro but like I said it’s a pipe dream.

I’ve loved Witherspoon since about October of last year. I went from hoping Dallas might get him in round 2, to hoping they might draft him in round 1… to knowing he’s a top 10 guy and that there is no chance.

I’ll recover. Probably.

Just a hunch but I don’t think they want Mayer - I think they want a TE - but not him
I don’t.

He’s a good player no doubt and likely the most ‘NFL-ready’ right now, but he’s not a game-changing athlete and a huge difference maker for a 1st round pick.

I understand. Every time I like a player hoping that the Cowboys will draft him he gets out of our range.

Hell, it might happen with Gibbs. I’ve really started Loki g him recently and now I’m seeing mocks with him going to teams before 26.

I’m about to just say **** it and stop looking…

By taking my best guesses at who the player is based on their press conference, comments and body language, I think it's Darnell Washington, most likely.

Although I'd love to have Quinten Johnston, Flowers, or JSN.

I would love to get Gibbs in a trade down but I don’t think he will get pass the Eagles at 30. I am losing hope of getting the players I want. I start liking them in the fall and then they get out of our range
