2 (51) - Brian Robiskie
Height: 6-3 | Weight: 207 | Position:WR | College: Ohio State

With TO gone, for better or for worse, I believe WR is once again an issue. I like Roy as a #1, and Crayton is steady, Miles has upside and Hurd was coming on till he got hurt as well. Read up on this kid, you'll love him. Ran well at the combine and shined during the drills, he's moving up the draft boards quick. Actually reminds me of Miles Austin but with a lot more polish.

3 (69) - William Moore

Height: 6-0 | Weight: 223 | Position:S | College: Missouri

Moore has taken a lot of knocks, and that may help us in this situation. I know the immediate knock is "He's Roy 2.0", but that's just not to case. He had an off year, but if he had come out last year, he would have been a first rounder easy. Plus, check out this tidbit:

02/05/2009 - Missouri Pro day: Moore was timed in the low 4.4 range in the 40-yard dash and clocked 4.39 on at least one reading, several people confirmed. If that time was consistent among the scouts Moore might have re-established himself as one of the two or three best safeties available. Also, Moore hit 36 ?? inches on the vertical jump.

I don't think Roy ever sniffed a 4.4 in his life, much less 4.3. He's a playmaker and we desperately need gamechangers in the secondary.

4 (97) - Keenan Lewis

Height: 6-1 | Weight: 198 | Position:CB | College: Oregon State

We need depth at CB and Lewis can step in and provide that, he played a lot of aggressive man to man at Oregon state but also has the awareness to play zone coverage when we need him to. He's got size and speed, but lacks great hands for the interception. There's some talk he could put a couple of pounds on and play some free safety as well, versatility is a plus.

4 (113) - Scott McKillop
Height: 6-1 | Weight: 243 | Position:ILB | College: Pittsburgh

Just a football player. He's smart and aware in coverage. Had absolutely fantastic production. A little shorter than most would like, which is why he may be available here despite his excellent play on the field.

5 (148) - Tom Brandstater
Height: 6-5 | Weight: 216 | Position:QB | College: Fresno State

Even with Kitna, I'd like to see us draft a young QB to backup Romo eventually. Brandstater is a work in progress, so Kitna buys him time to get in here and get some work done without any pressure to get on the field anytime soon. I like his size, but could probably put on a few more pounds.

5(comp) - Louis Vasquez
Height: 6-5 | Weight: 330 | Position:OG | College: Texas Tech

Blocked on that Texas Tech line so you know the guy has some experience pass blocking, but he's a project as well. Has the size we like here in Dallas as well, and we have some depth at guard so he can learn a real NFL offense blocking scheme instead of that spread nonsense.

6 (184) - Sammie Lee Hill
Height: 6-4 | Weight: 331 | Position:DT | College: Stillman College

With Igor on board, looks like Ratliff will stay at NT, but with Tank gone, we have nearly zero depth there. In comes Sammie Lee Hill. He's not a great pass rusher but he won't have to be, he's got the size and strength to be an anchor.

6 (comp - Everette Pedescleaux

Height: 6-6 | Weight: 305 | Position:DE | College: Northern Iowa

Movie Time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GH9lJT3lK8

I love Youtube scouting. ;) In all seriousness, he's agressive, has the size (weight and height) to play DE in the 3-4 (which most DE's and DT's don't this year), but as you can see in the video, he's pretty quick as well.

7 (193) - Demetrius Byrd
Height: 6-1 | Weight: 200 | Position:WR | College: LSU

Another WR, get Stanback the hell out of here. Ran a 4.35 at the combine so he's got speed. Can come in and contribute on special teams immediately, and perhaps develop into a slot guy with time. For a 7th round pick, not a lot of gamble here, if it doesn't work out, just cut him loose.

7 (210) - Ramon Foster

Height: 6-5 | Weight: 338 | Position:OG | College: Tennessee

Looking for another big lineman. Foster actually has experience at tackle, but not really athletic enough for the NFL in my opinion. Another project guy that you're not investing too much into.

Not a big fan of Robiskie. I like Mckillo and Samie. I don't think McKillop goes that late in the fourth.

I like it but do not think that some of your choices will drop that far such as Moore or Hill. I also do not think that we need a Wr as our top priority. I think that the young ones like Austin and Hurd will step up. Having roboskie would not be bad. I have read good things about him.

Regarding Moore...

I was just watching NFLN, and they share the sentiment that he's reestablished himself somewhat with his pro day workout. They didn't, however mention anything about a 4.39. They said his top time was a 4.49. Have you found any other sources confirming his times?

More important than his times, they said he seems to be running better. His hips have loosened up, and that he's looking like he's healed up considerably from being beat up all season.

Certainly interesting.

I got my rankings here: http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/prospectrankings

Obviously, this is all very liquid, I actually don't think Moore will last till the third round, but they had him rated 64th and we pick 69th, so even here it would take some luck.

Before his pro day, his stock had dropped a lot, but looks to be coming back up.

We may not need a WR this year coming up, but as they keep telling me, rookies don't contribute, so instead of finding out the hard way, here's our chance to actually take a guy this year and have him produce for years to come.

What scares me right now is the thought of Roy getting hurt (and he has had plenty of injuries in the past) and having Crayton as our #1.

Full excerpt:

02/05/2009 - Missouri Pro day: Moore was timed in the low 4.4 range in the 40-yard dash and clocked 4.39 on at least one reading, several people confirmed. If that time was consistent among the scouts Moore might have re-established himself as one of the two or three best safeties available. Also, Moore hit 36 ?? inches on the vertical jump. Moore, down to 221 pounds and finally running on a healthy set of wheels, said he's gotten positive feedback from several teams and had dinner with New Orleans Saints officials Wednesday night. "They're showing great interest. Miami, too," Moore said. "All the teams that are in need of DBs I think I'm up there as one of their top choices." - Dave Matter, Columbia Daily Tribune

So I guess the source is Dave Matter, the fact that he's meeting with the Saints kind of sucks, they are in need of safety help.

But yeah, I think after his pro day he's probably back in the 2nd round.
