It's been years since I did one so fair play to those of you that do multiple mocks, because it takes a couple hours work......

1. Cin - Joe Burrow QB
2. Was - Chase Young, DE
3. Det - Jeffrey Okudah, CB
4. NYG - Isaiah Simmons, LB
5. MIA - Tua Tagavailoa, QB
6. LAC - Justin Herbert, QB
7. Car - Derrick Brown, DT
8. Ari - Trisran Wirfs, OT
9. Jac - Javon Kinlaw, DT
10.Cle - Jedrick Wills, OT
11.NYJ- Mekhi Becton, OT
12.LV- Ceedee Lamb, WR
13.49r - CJ Henderson, CB
14. Tam - Andrew Thomas, OT
15. Den - Jerry Jeudy, WR
16. Atl - K'Lavon Chaisson, EDGE

17. DALLAS - Trades 17 to Minnesota for 22, 89 and 155

17. Min - Henry Ruggs, WR
18. Mia - Justin Jefferson, WR
19. LV - Trevon Diggs, CB
20. Jac - Jordan Love, QB
21. Phi - Kenneth Murray, LB

DAL -
22. Xavier McKinney, S or Zack Baun, EDGE
51. Jaylon Johnson, CB
82. Darrell Taylor, EDGE or Terrell Burgess, S
89. Van Jefferson, WR
123. Logan Wilson, LB
155. McTelvin Agim, DT


and this is where it becomes utter guesswork.

I know lots will say just take Ruggs and I'd be fine if we did....

Reminds a little of the trade back for Fredrick. McKinney + Jefferson > Ruggs. Love Johnson and Wilson. There are players I would take over Taylor at that draft position but he would be a good backup with the potential to become a starter.
 
I'm ok trading down and not taking Ruggs. I'm also OK w Mckinney at 22. I like.

I think the trade down is realistic to expect. I do like McKinney, but feel they may target more of a CB then a safety. In this scenario, Fulton might be the selection. Also, early indications they are looking at fixing their DL, you would think something more than Taylor for the unit. Really like the class you chose, but believe they might be more heavy toward the DL, then the secondary.
 
no offense to the OP but i will lose my mind if we picked 3 DBs in the 1st 3 RDs.

I have been through like a million mock drafts and in so many cases the best value on the board is a DB, especially in rounds 2 and 3. But I would not trade down if Ruggs is there at 17. He is a position of need and an impact player when he is on the field. Its a deep WR class, but no one has speed like Ruggs. If they want a safety, I'd take Chinn in round 2. He's 6'3", 221 lbs. He ran a 4.45 40 and a 41" vertical jump! He is a better value pick at 51 than McKinney at 22. Then if they want a CB, Troy Pride may be available in the 3rd. If not then maybe Jabari Zuniga, not to be confused with Daphne Zuniga, may available. Or Kenny Willekes. Both decent Edge rushers with speed and power.

There are a few CBs who may be available in the 3rd round who have good speeds and speed is what they need.

I've successfully talked myself into Baun being the guy. So much so that I'm fine with him at 17.

I think they want to be scheme flexible and Baun gives them that flexibility. He can rush, he can drop...

That all said, I don't think Jerry can bring himself to pass on Ruggs in this scenario, and I doubt this would be a Manziel/Martin situation.
 
I would like this draft except for the fact if someone asked me who the Cowboys #1 cornerback currently is I'm gonna have to tell them..
Jaylon Johnson.

I'd be happy if we take Baun. As you say his ability to play in multiple packages, drop, cover, and bend the corner should be very appealing to Nolan

I havent got us picking three db's,
The "or" part if picks 1 and 3 are if we take a LB in 1 we take a S in 3, if we take a S in 1 we take a DE in 3. Apologies if I didnt explain t hff at correctly....

This us part of the problem of not being aggressive in FA . EVEN if you didnt want to resign Jones at least grab a tier 2 guy.....
 
This is right in line with my thinking. The only change that I think is possible is that we might trade a future pick and go get an OT (we have no swing tackle).

Good point. I was looking at a Shadiq Charles type pick in Round 4 as a possible swing....
 
Kudos to anyone who posts a mock and doesn't use that ******* and unrealistic software
:clap:
 
there is no chance I'd trade away from Ruggs. He's more Tyreek Hill than John Ross III. He would make this offense extremely hard to defend. If they did trade away from him than they better land Baun! I wouldn't mind him at 17 to be honest. Starting strongside LB and rushing RE on passing downs. They would need to scheme him so he doesn't leave the field. Kid is a player. I love Jaylon Johnson in the 2nd. I have him over evreyone but Okudah, Henderson and Gladney. 3rd I'd love if Dugger, Chinn or Rakwon Davis was available

Johnson will be a damn good player in this league. I loved Chido coming out of Colorado also. I"m hoping/assuming new coaching will get him right!
