TJ Watt

With all these guys that are going to be gone by 28 I can't wait to see who slips. The last time that happened we picked up Zack Martin.

Watt can be our Vic Beasley if we don't think he can hold up as an every down DE. Let him take Damien wilsons job and have him at DE on passing downs/rotating series.

I'd prefer this role to RDE. He's got the athleticism and frame to be a DE, but he just hasn't done it that much. Plus, I think he offers a lot to the team standing up.

Remember we play a pretty heavy rotation with our DL. Not even a first rounder is going to play more than 60-70 percent of snaps.

More food for thought. Here's an interesting article on the measurables for all of the top candidates for pass rusher for the Cowboys in this year's draft. And again, Watt compares favorably to all of them.

"T.J. Watt may be the favorite to have his name called of all these prospects. Even with the concern of inexperience and injury history, Dallas could value his athletic upside more than anything else. Very similarly to when they selected Byron Jones over Landon Collins in 2015.

Candidacy Grade: Strong"

I think he could play 60 if he takes over for Damien Wilson at slb
