Baker.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Both are gonna be good pro DB's. Id be happy of either were Cowboys

Baker isn't going to be considered imo. It's a damn shame but I've resolved myself to that fact.

 

[The Realist]

Please take neither.

 

[Tristan]

BOFUM!!!!!!

 

[Setackin]

Baker

Why do u say that?

 

[AzorAhai]

Why do u say that?

Size. He's short and light. The Cowboys have certain thresholds for player size and he's going to fall outside of them unfortunately.

I would be ecstatic with Jackson. He'd play a little bit of everything in his rookie year.

 

[AsthmaField]

BOFUM!!!!!!

That made me LOL... and not much does.

 

[AsthmaField]

If it were me, I'd take Baker (although I do like Jackson).

I think Dallas would take Jackson first though.

Adoree will be a better version of Janoris Jenkins. People don't want that? Not to mention he'll return punts ala Patrick Peterson.

I am not disputing what Jackson may become but I just wanted to note that I discount punt return ability of my first round pick. The reality is you want your first round pick to be one of your core players. If they are, you are less likely to have them return kicks. Peterson had one kickoff return last year and 13 punt returns. He hasn't returned a punt or kickoff for a touchdown since 2011. He was also thought to be a generational return man, but it appears they think he is too valuable to consistently have him return punts.

Not sure why it's "inevitable". Although I like Budda, I don't want either at 28. There will be better players there.

I noticed somewhere that no safeties were brought in for visits except Thompson Colorado.
has that changed

Thought it was posted that Obi from UConn and Evans from A&M were coming in for visits.

Of course just a brain fart, thanks

Inevitable because they are both very talented and 5ft9, or borderline too small for the NFL. 60 would be a nice place to draft either player, and I'd have to lean towards the CB.

I really just don't see how Baker fits anything Dallas wants to do.....I mean nothing. He's not an athletic safety, yet he's also tiny. Where do you play this guy? Who can he cover?
