Dallas has a tough stretch with the schedule. Better be good early, because its going to be real tough at the end of the season.

• First 4 games of the season will you give you an indicator of how this season will go.

• 3 of the first 4 games are against 3-4 teams

• Marinelli is the type of coach that you can draft a later round guy and develop him to give you a high draft pick type of production.

• Drafting Jimmy Ward allows Dallas to bring him up to the slot in Dime situations and let Wicox come in.

• If Dallas does trade it wouldnt be brought up until draft day. But most likely picking at 16 unless a team calls to trade up.

• Fredrick had a tough yr going up against good DL. And looks ripe to improve this yr.

• Dallas will not take Jernigan at 16 because they view him as a 1tech. Not a smoke screen.

• Spencer is still not running on his own. Thats why he's signing the dea that he signed. Dallas has a clause
in Spencers contract. if he goes on IR or PUP he only gets half of that 1.25 mil. Broaddus said 50/50 that he plays this yr.

• Keep an eye on Kyle Wilber this yr competing for the SAM spot. Draft Shazier and play him at the WILL and let Carter and Wilber go at it at the SAM. Hollomon backup Mike.

Another name to keep an eye on is Weems.

• Escobar has been working hard, and has gotten bigger.

• Watch McCain this yr. He's a get up the field type of guy.

• Linehan runs alot of plays down the field, that could open things under for a guy like Beasley

• A good trade would be trading with Cleveland side down to 26 and their two RD3 picks.

Oh yeah? Well, based on past experience and the current roster, I'd say we have a 50 percent chance of winning 16 games, 50 percent chance of losing 16 games, and a 50 percent chance of making the playoffs. In summary, I think we have a 100 percent chance of remaining mediocre. How is that for a fact-based, well-thought-out, well-researched and intellectually-driven opinion? So what the hell do the so-called experts know? Sarcasicm switch disengaged... .:D

Craziness. I am not advocating the 16 thing, but to just eliminate a position as not first round worthy, as they have done, is insane considering we have one quality starter on the entire DL.

I have to disagree with you on this one. If the Cowboys view his ceiling as a run stopping 1 tech I wouldn't use a first on him either. If he somehow dropped to us in the 2nd I would take him in a heartbeat. The 1 tech is one of the easiest positions to find a stop gap, its kind of the RB position of a defense, so why use a premium pick? I would much rather go after someone capable of rushing the passer in round 1 if we go DL.

Cleveland to trade up from 26 for two 3rds (#71 & #83) for a QB (Bridgewater/Carr) @ 16, man....land Ward and a Pass Rusher this is a successful Draft.

Ok, this question if for those of you who know........Jimmy Ward vs Vaccario (sp?) out of Texas last year......who was the best prospect coming into the draft?

I would have to believe Vaccaro. They wanted him last year at 18 (went 15). Odds are they will pass on Ward at 16, he's likely a late 1st - early 2nd type guy.

Give me Martin, Barr, Donald, Ward, Shazier, Mosely, Ealy and any of the RD1 CBs over Jernigan every day and all day on sunday

With you on Martin, Barr, Donald and Ealy....Mosleys' injuries are starting to scare me off because of Lee and Carters' injury History.

Viewing the slight Shazier as a late 1st...the Safties Pryor and Haha Clinton look like late 1sts as well.

Warming up to Best Player Available with Ebron or Evans @ 16 if they fall...Manziel, Bridgewater and Bortles all go top 8 with #3 Jacksonville, #4 Cleveland, #1 Houston, #8 Vikes are all in desperate need for playmaking QBs.

I thought he held his own, sure he has a few rough match-ups but I thought he did good for the most part. I couldn't have asked for anything more from him in his rookie season and he will only get better.

Rat got those primarily in the nickel. McClain didn't get those type snaps. He definitely needs to develop more in pass rushing technique, but he is still suppose to be very active in both the run and pass.

He was barely active for gameday. He hasn't started a game since 2012 and only made 8 tackles all year.

LATER round guys. Look what he did with a 3th round guy in Hatcher. He's laughing at you. Look what he did with Melton, he's also lauighing at you. Thats what they meant. They dont need to force a RD1 guy with a coach like Marinelli


laughing at you for swallowing this HC

I dont think he would make it out of TC if he cant make it back by preseason atleast. Release him at the end of camp costs Dallas minimal

I like the way yo mind work. You too come over today and chill. Like i was telling theManwiththePlan just a while ago, I will be boiling eggs, making a cake for my cat and chillin so we could discuss football while Ms. busty walk back and forth making the room look and smell good.

Is hairball cake difficult to make? Do you use real or fake hair for ingredients?

Well that is for you to find out. Anyway, unless mandwiththeplan or latinmind or jobberdone invite you, no one half said: "Hey, old DallasEast, why don't you come over in your Audi and drop in with this gang of cool cats"? has anyone said that? Huh? I dont think so. And Ms. Busty say you stare too much. So, no soap, pally. You go to the Moose Social Club on Harry Hines and half a good time.n

Not Ealy. I'd take Jernigan and give away a 2nd round pick, if I had to, before I would draft Ealy over Jernigan and I don't even really love Jernigan.

That's basically the trade scenario ABQJr. and I proposed on our last Mock Draft. For that reason alone, I have zero faith that it would ever happen. LOL....
