parsons or surtain
Cowboys may have a chance to pick three of the top twelve defensive players in the draft with a little wheelin' dealin'.
They could conceivably trade down about 10 to 12 spots and pick up extra picks. They could then use those extra picks in addition to compensatory picks to move back up into the 1st round, somewhere around #25 to #28 without burning their 2nd round pick at #44.
I'm thinking CB at the early 20's picks, Samuals, Farley or Newsome, the safety Moehrig with the late 20's pick, and DT Barmore or one of the LB's early in the 2nd round at #44.
Elite talent at one position is great if you are assured durability, consistent performance and future cap space. However, I would prefer to spread the talent around all positions in the defense. Plus, you never really know who is going to come in this league and excel. Also, you never know who is going to come into this league and experience misfortune, off the fields problems, or serious injury.
If I had the choice between a #10 pick or two first round picks between #20 and #26 then I would probably go with the latter.
Ed Reed was the #24 pick in his draft. Ray Lewis was #26. Ozzie Newsome #23, Dan Marino #27....Do you think anybody saw them as "generational" when they were drafted? People should be very careful when they use the word "generational". Any player could be generational but that designation is given after or near the end of a career, not before that career even begins.
Why not have it here since the draft is in 8 days, these threads will get more traffic here. Don't see any reason why not keep them on the front page for a few days.

Doesn't matter. This franchise and its knuckle-dragger fans are addicted to offense.
Speaking of knuckle dragging, of course the “Dak First” fans want to draft offense. The “ends” is to boost Dakotas personal stats and then blame the losses on a neglected defense
Ergo, the ends justifies the means. This anointing of Dakota is clearly personal and the teams success is secondary

Man the butthurt over Dak being signed when so many predicted it would never happen is absolutely boundless.
*,,,Er,,,& how did that work out in the long game fer' T-Rex the Terrible Lizard?,,Eh?Indeed, but Tyrannosaurus Rex didn't rely on long arms either.
He is the best player at a position of "dire" need for this team. I think BPA not QB, RB, WR. I think that even without Gallop our WR corps will be fine in the long run.Surtain II is not the best defender in this draft. Not even close.
Listening to Surtain speak, then Horn and one senses a gap in their smarts. Surtain's pretty sharp. Horn, meh! It matters.
Are freegin' serious, man?! A conspiracy to boost stats and have a preconceived excuse for failure? A conspiracy?!?
LOL!!
Wow... just wow. I think i just read the stupidest thing I have EVER read on this forum.
Might get a warning for this... totally worth it.
sometimes a DOG is needed for team with no identity on that side of the ball.. Horns a football player not professor homie.
we need more dogs then we need this clean cut school yard culture around here, what was garrets old line" the right guys" ..F all that give me a football player with attitude and confidence..
ill take either but dont discount attitude, confidence and football instincts for not being football smart..
ask Charles haley few questions, sure you dont want him on your debate team but you want him on your defense thats for sure..
I'm certain the staff and those actually relevant in the Dallas organization will judge them for themselves.
The 'Boys often choose players with rocks between their ears. Hopefully, they'll make intelligent choices.
