Its why I want GoldenAbout the same speed as CeeDee.
Cowboys need someone with more speed.

Maybe not final rankings but we’re when they played them.Don't really want to go overboard on this but I don't see either in the final rankings (week 15) in the AP or Coaches poll.

I wouldn't mind Golden, but not at #12 spot. Trade down into the early 20s while picking up either an extra 2nd round pick or a 3rd and a 4th rounders. If Golden is gone by the early 20s, there are a few other fast WRs who should be available in the 3rd round.Its why I want Golden
No need to keep going back and forth on this -- it's not a hill to die on for me -- but OU gave up 38 points in a bowl game (and bowl games are weird these days), USC's defense under Grinch was an absolute embarrassment, Colorado wasn't good, ASU wasn't very good in '23... Right?Okay, but I just showed you 5-6 quality opponents he performed well against. And that’s just arbitrarily using 100-yards as a measuring stick. He played against 7 ranked opponents in 2023.
What do you make of his drop in production last year? Was it solely the QB?100%.
I still like Tet and would be fine with him at 12 but a 4.6 WE that early is a little scary.
The offense, the QB etc…I think they realized due to the QBs limitations they just tried to get the ball in their best players hands as quickly as possible.What do you make of his drop in production last year? Was it solely the QB?
I'm not arguing, BTW, just curious to hear your perspective.
Makes it easy when you can pin your ears back and rush the passerGuyton. Martin, and Steele were horrible at pass blocking last season. Dak was getting killed.
Well Jerry thought Zeke would be enough.
Bad year to be looking for a WR at the top of the draft.Even if his ceiling is drake London that's not anything special. Hes not Mike Evans and neither is Drake
Correct. Just need to see the offense and players first.Makes it easy when you can pin your ears back and rush the passer
I would be much more inclined to trade down 5 or so spots and grab Egbuka or 10 spots and maybe grab Golden, plus some more draft capital. No guarantee that would work though. If Tet is available at 12 and Jeanty is already gone then the team is in a dilemma. Tet just seems like a slot receiver for his career and although that is important. The team has way more important needs for priority positions.I get it, but it still doesn’t give me the warm and fuzzies drafting that kind of athlete at 12.
Ideally you’re getting a plus athlete with plus production against top competition. At this point I’d probably lean Burden for that reason or feel better about a trade down taking Golden / Egbuka.
100% agree - problem is in a weak class at the top I highly doubt we’ll get trade back offers.I would be much more inclined to trade down 5 or so spots and grab Egbuka or 10 spots and maybe grab Golden, plus some more draft capital.

This is not a deep wr class. That is why Tet gets drafted higher than he should.Maybe. But with this being a very good and deep wr class, I'm not sure. I guess it depends on teams boards . I think if we wanted to get crazy at 12 we could easily go Luther Burden. He's a bigger Tyreek Hill with more versatility. We sorely need speed on offense. He and Turpin would absolutely baffle teams defensively. Would open up our running attack too.
It sets up perfectly for them to get an outstanding number 2 receiver this year.This is not a deep wr class. That is why Tet gets drafted higher than he should.
Last year would have been the one to draft a WR.
Yep. In a trade down scenario.It sets up perfectly for them to get an outstanding number 2 receiver this year.
It looks like they could trade down to the 18 to 21 range and get Emeka Egbuka, or Burden, or Golden. 1 or 2 of them should be there.Yep. In a trade down scenario.
