Based on new visitors confirmed in today's DMN and from DC.com. The rounds are not actual grades, but my estimates of where the players may be graded, based on information from a variety of sources. Your mileage may vary.

1st Round 3rd Round
Dez Bryant WR

Mike Iupati, G

Maurkice Pouncey, C

Jared Odrick, DE

2nd Round
Devin McCourty, CB

Arrelious Benn, WR

Vladimir Ducasse, OT

Morgan Burnett, FS

Brandon LaFell, WR

Chad Jones, SS

Tyson Alualu, DE

3rd Round

It starts to look like a menu. Look in each round. There's a set of practically every need or want position there. You see two OL, a DL and a WR in the first. Earl Thomas isn't here, but we know the Cowboys would love a shot at him, long though it may be.

In the 2nd round, the same set -- an OL, a DL, two WR and three S.

You know which positions the Cowboys want, but you can also see they're giving themselves options for each need in practically every round. Want a WR, but you go another route in the 1st? No problem, there are other options in the 2nd. And if you go another direction there? Go to the next round, and so on.

Parting questions:

1.Do you see any players who don't fit the profiles we've covered the past few weeks?
2.Look at the glut of 2nd round names. Which look like high 2nds, the type of guys you consider at 27 if you can't move down, and which are lower 2nds, prospects for pick 59?
3.See any players here who you do not like?
