In most of the draft threads I've created or participated in, I've been looking at them from the standpoint of what I would do, because that's fun. But I thought I would do one based on what I think this front office will do. Again, this is not what I would do.
No. 12 WR Matthew Golden, Texas
Why? Stephen has said one of the things we want to find is an explosive No. 2 receiver. We're not liable to find one in free agency at this point and we're only going to be willing to trade a third-day pick for one, like we did for Cooks. It's likely No. 2 receiver is No. 1 on our shopping list.
No. 44 CB Maxwell Hairston, Kentucky
Why? Although Dallas traded for Kairr Elam, it lost Jourdan Lewis in free agency and doesn't know how much of the season Diggs is going to miss. This also allows them to cut Diggs next year and pay Bland instead while having a cheap second corner on the roster.
No. 76 RB D.J. Giddens, Kansas State
Why? It wouldn't surprise me if the Joneses like their RB room (like last year) after picking up two veterans, but this may be a coaches' pick since we have the Jayhawks' former OL coach.
It gets harder to think like the Joneses on the third day because that's more of a time when it's really about McClay and the scouts and what the coaches say they need. Usually, we take players we had rated higher than where we took them or we reach for players who fit what the coaches like. I would bet that we'd get a DT with one of the picks, on OT who we'll convert to guard, two LBs for at least depth purposes and another CB. That's five out of seven picks. so I'll throw another DT and a DE into the mix. I'd take a second RB, but I'll be surprised if Dallas does. I think QB is out because of today's trade.
No. 149 LB Que Robinson, Alabama
No. 171 DT Jamaree Caldwell, Oregon
No. 174 G Luke Kandra, Cincinnati
No. 204 CB Alijah Huzzie, North Carolina
No. 211 DT Tonka Hemingway, South Carolina
No. 239 DE Jah Joyner, Minnesota
No. 247 LB Teddye Buchanan, Cal
No. 12 WR Matthew Golden, Texas
