It's a great draft, but I'd really like to get another DE since that appears to be a desperate need.
I'm not down on your Joe Mixon pick at all. I think the Cowboys could do that. The strength of this team is the offense and the running game, in particular.
We took Zeke off the field too much - in my opinion - last yeare, and if we're going to do that this year, we need a back who can step in and give us the same thing with little drop off.
As for the bad publicity, when exactly has that bothered Jerry Jones?
We have two guys accused of committing domestic violence on our roster - which will get even further exposure if we draft both. But Jerry doesn't care. As long as the Cowboys name remains out there, and they help the team, they're reasonable picks.

The Cowboys trade pick 28 to the Browns for picks 33 and 65. The Cowboys trade Tony Romo to the Texans for pick 89.

33 TJ Watt olb/de Wisconsin
60 Josh Jones ss North Carolina State
65 Joe Mixon rb Oklahoma
89 Ahkello Witherspoon cb Colorado
92 Jake Butt te Michigan
133 Jourdan Lewis cb Michigan
211 Eddie Vanderdoes dt UCLA
228 Jeremy Cutrer cb Middle Tennessee
246 Trevor Knight qb/safety Oklahoma
Thanks for the effort, rambo!
Several really good players.

fwiw, No team would give us 33 and 65 for 28. They probably wouldn't even give us 33 and 97 for 28....but maybe. The trade is way out of whack.

try using this next time

Trades are usually within 5-10% of that.

This one might get out of whack because several teams might want pick 28. Pittsburgh, New Orleans, Cleveland, San Francisco, and Chicago could all want to move up to draft a qb.

Out of whack slightly would be 33 and 97 for 28. That still would add up to a slight overpay (about 20 trade points extra) like Denver did last year to move up for Lynch.

But 165 extra (or an extra late 3rd rounder) is kind of way out there.
1(33) + 2(65) = 580 + 265 = 845
1(28) = 680

All in good fun though, just pointing it out for your next mock.

Thanks, I'm no expert on trade value. I do get the feeling that there will be some teams interested in getting ahead of teams that will want a qb at the back of round 1.

I really like picking up Witherspoon, Lewis, and Cutrer, but not big on the Mixon pick, I would rather get James Conner or someone else later.

Ya he's bigger than I thought he was. But after finding out he blew out both knees I'd have to pass.
Thats my worry as well. I mean i know hes not his brother, but damn it would be nice to have him on this team if he could stay healthy.

Thought I read recently that Mixon was off their board.

That would be ridiculous. They could say something like that thinking that he would already be gone when they pick in the 2nd round like New England did. I was amused that New England said that. They know that he should be gone when they pick.

He is off NE and Miami for sure. Believe I saw it in a tweet by Broaddus that he thought he was off the board.

I think various players ARE fully removed from some trams' boards.
Its that way every year.

So far with Mixon, only 2 have gone public with it. New England and Miami.
I bet there are at least dozen a more.
Only takes one though!
Somebody will take him....hes suppossedly flying up various draft boards

Here are some teams that have already met with him
Chargers
Packers
Bengals
Raiders
Browns
Saints
Lions

The Texans aren't trading a 3rd round pick for Romo. Maybe a 5th and a 2018 conditional. No way Cowboys draft a RB that high with his domestic violence background. Forget about Trevor Knight...he could hardly play in SEC, much less NFL.

I'm all for trading our #1 for a very high #2, assuming we also get a very high #3. Not sure that happens though. When Minnesota traded up for Bridgewater, Minnesota sent back their 2 and 4.
Trevor Knight can play safety. I'm sure of it.
