News always comes in the media about the Cowboys, maybe it's just something to write, or things that writers are assuming is the best thing for the Cowboys to do. Based off of what I'm still puzzled. Is it because we have two first round picks, or do they really feel we have a severe need to jump up and get someone high.

If we're going to trade up, I'd rather it happen in other rounds not the first. I can remember times the media saying the cowboys wanted to trade down and they stayed where they were. It's getting interesting, nobody knows what's going to happen!! Please give your thoughts!!
 
Honestly. I think most of us fans are just wound up from the months on end of draft coverage.

I’m ready for it to just happen already and get it over with.

At 12 we will be looking at a corner or drafting for need. So either trade up or down.

It's not just the Cowboys.....You gotta watch yourself this year.....It's all over...Media is selling players big time this year.

There are least 9 guys this year...hyped as 1st round...and I just don't see it

Ty Simpson QB Alabama
Jordyn Tyson WR Arizona St.
Vega Ioane OG Penn St.
Makai Lemon WR USC
Cashius Howell Edge Texas A&M
Chase Bisontis LG Texas A&M
Peter Woods DT Clemson
Kayden McDonald NT Ohio St.
T.J. Parker EDGE Clemson

Take that list as you want.....but buyer beware in my book :popcorn:

It just makes a lot of sense to trade up and Cleveland is a perfect fit. Arizona and Cleveland want to trade down. The Cowboys could end up with one of Reese, Bailey, Styles, or Downs.

That's nice, is it really enough to get up there?? We are players away from being good, keep your picks! Hopefully most of them are gone by 6

Because we have a moron for a GM
 
I think the thing to ask yourself is.. who is leaking the rumor and why? There is obviously a lot of smoke about a Cleveland/Dallas trade, and the Browns don't run a very tight ship...

But I wonder if Baltimore is lurking. They, with Dallas of course, were the teams interested in pass rush help in Crosby, and to be honest if I am trading up in this draft it is only for Bailey or Reese. Would they be willing to trade 14, some change and their 1st next year to get up to 3/4/5? I can't imagine they would do an intra-division trade with Cleveland, so one of those other teams, by putting the Dallas/Cleveland rumor out there, may be enticing them to come up ahead of the Browns at 6 to secure whichever pass rusher is left after the Jets take one at 2.

I'm probably over thinking this.
 
The trade up hype is real because even at 12 we risk sitting there with OT’s and WR’s on the board or 2nd and 3rd Edge rushers. Every mock I’ve done it seems like everyone is wiped out at 12 and the top player is Sadiq or a WR.
