@SullyBaldHead: Just spent a few hours at Valley Ranch, taping this week's edition of "On Air," and the chatter has the Cowboys looking to move up tomorrow.

Unless we're going up for Fisher and Joeckel then we truly are turning into the Raiders. I hope and pray they don't give up any future picks for anyone in this draft personally.
 
I don't want to see a trade up, either. At the end of the day, though, if you end up with a great player, a trade up is usually worth it. A Sean Lee is worth more than two Marcus Spears, after the fact. You just need to be right that you got your guy if you're going to load all the risk from two picks into one player.

That said, I imagine we're just floating contrary information to muddy the water.
 
I want them to consider all possibilities and act prudently. Don't mentally block yourself out of a good deal.

I would trade our 1st and 3rd to move up and get Cooper

I love cooper, but no thanks.

This draft is deep in OL, DL, and Second Tier safety. We could get a starter in the 3rd.

This draft is deep at G. Plus you never trade up for a interior lineman. If the Boys
wanna trade up it's for a DT or Tavon Austin.
 
I'll give up next year's 7th to move up to 11 and draft Cooper.

I'd give up a third to secure Johnson or Star. I'd give a fourth to secure Warmack, Cooper, or Richardson.

Food for thought:

Falcons moved from 27 to 6 for Julio. They gave up pick 27,59 and the following year 22-120.

Falcons got Julio Jones
Browns got; Phil Taylor,Greg Little, Brandon Weeden, James Michael-Johnson.

I'd argue the Falcons got a player who will be one of the best in the league for the next decade while the Browns got a bunch of mediocre players.

I'd do a trade like that for an impact player that can put points on the board.

Not for a Guard. Not for a Tackle. Not for a DT. Not for any of the WR's in this draft.

There's no players worthy of that type of trade this year, IMO.

Next year however...

Yep... Get me a game changer or stand pat...
 
I'd be OK with a move up of 3 or 4 slots for a 3rd or 4th rounder to get Star, Shariff or Chance.
 
I'd give up a next years 4th or 3rd to move up...

Only for a few players though.

We can get a quality player by standing pat, or trading down.

Especially in a deep draft we can come away with S. Williams, a guard, and a safety that can all start day 1.

Not a fan of giving up a lot of players for a one player. We have an issue with depth as is, we need more of it

This.

Someone has been feeding Sully a load of hooey because they know he has a big imagination.
