True, that's why I'd look into trading with Tenn at #11. A move up to that spot would pretty much guarantee Donald is ours.

I hate to say it but Im going to say that Donald is going to be a star in the NFL in the right system. His freakish speed for a DT is amazing,. As you mentioned before in one of your post, his stats in college for a DT is amazing as well.

I really do think he is gone even before Chicago picks. The Giants might snatch him up and if they do he will create havoc in our backfield as well. His size in my opinion is an advantage to him, making it hard for any Oline to get a hold of him. Couple that with his first step and I can see why he's just so hard to contain. I don't think his a bust. I think he's going to excel as a 3 tech in a 4-3. I really hope we get him. I even hope we trade up for him because we need him.

If Donald is your guy .. go up and get him ... trade up above the Giants and Bears. The titans need an extra pick.

No thank you. There is no player in this draft that is worth giving away potential starters for. Especially for a team that is seriously lacking talent on defense and depth across the board. Cowboys cannot afford to throw away draft picks.

I like Donald and I think good football players can be good in any system if you find a way to use them.

With that said, if they like another DT better like Jernigan or Hageman than that is what they want and I am not going to complain. If they like OG/OT Martin better...so be it.

I think you can get a quality player not named Donald in this draft and this team is in need of help in so many areas it would work out for them.

This is how I feel....I like Donald and would not be upset if they took him, but there are so many options...I hope that they don't end up picking one of the two S with pick #16, and I certainly don't want ANY QB...

This question now becomes serious, will the cowboys don't pass on him just be because they signed Melton?

im totally on board with you on this .. but if you REALLY think Donald can make a big difference trade 3-7 round pick to go up. This franchise cant hit on anything less than a 2nd rounder anyway. You arent giving up anything really.

D.J. Morrell 6-foot-6, 325

During ODU's 35-24 loss at Pittsburgh, he held his own against defensive tackle Aaron Donald, who won the Outland and Nagurski trophies, holding him to two tackles and no sacks.

opps a nobody
