What to Do for Cowboys Draft Trade Up or Down

Trading up from 10 isn't worth the capital. Trading up in subsequent rounds is another matter, since they have 9 picks to work with in those rounds.

Trading back in the first might make sense, depending on who's available and what's offered to them.

This is true. I proposed a trade-up a few days ago and then someone showed me what it would actually cost in draft capital to do just that and I was flabbergasted. It's incredibly expensive to trade up into those highest-upper picks.
 
I am all for trading up in the 2nd or 3rd rounds but definitely not from 10. It just costs too much and there aren't any superstar defenders to go after.
 
I'd be very enticed if the Ravens wanted #10 for #27 and #31.
 
If both Surtain and Horn are on the board, then trade down but no further than 15th and receiving an extra 2nd rounder (1-15). Then my first pick would be the highest CB on our board. I would then traded the extra second with a fourth-rounder to get back up into the 20-34 range.
 
they will stay put at 10...one of the CB's will be there. they will also not trade back into the first.
 
Im all for trading down in 1st round. Accumulate picks and then trade back into 1st Round with extra picks to get a second solid starter.

Any CB and Barimore would be my targets.
 
Either sit tight and take a good player that fits our needs at 10, or trade back and get some more draft picks. Absolutely do not trade up from 10.

You are all correct. "Do nothing till you hear from me...and you never will"
This sounds like lve click bait haha
I would never use the greatest singer of all time for click bait. I used the great Ella Fitzgerald to sing the answer that all Cowboy fans and Jerry Jones should do in a draft where scouting, data, and player contact are damaged by a pandemic. Just try to get to the 2022 draft without damaging your future chasing Football player ghost.
 
Sit at no. 10 and see who is on the board when its the Cowboys pick. Do nothing 'till you hear from me and.....

...you never will.

no way up too costly for a luxury we dont need..ie offense. Defense is a major need and 10-15 is perfect for taking the best defenders

You're right. Who would Dallas trade up for? But supposedly trading up from 10 to 4 would cost us a 2nd and 4th rounder. That's in addition to pick 10. But that's if a bidding war isn't going on. And Atlanta isn't dead set on one of those top players. I wouldn't put it past Jerry to give that up. Luckily I don't think Atlanta would accept that.

The Patriots aren't over paying the Cowboys to move up 5 slots. Belichick doesn't often make a fool of himself.

You absolutely correct and you get the 2nd song of the Cowboys 2021 draft...
In this draft, you got to know when to hold em, know when to fold them, know when to walk away, know when to run...
 
I am trading down. I don’t care if Pitts got a Jerry Jones tattoo on his butt cheek. I am still trading down. I like trading down a bit, picking up an extra 2 or 3 and getting Barmore. That pleases me most.
