Not Burnett, but this mock suggested a trade up:
https://www.fanragsports.com/nfl/2017-nfl-mock-draft-possible-trades-edition/18/
The Dallas Cowboys trade the 28th and 60th overall picks to the Tennessee Titans for the 18th overall pick.
18. Dallas Cowboys (trade with Titans) – Jamal Adams, Safety, LSU
Jerry Jones gets what he wants. Seeing Jamal Adams fall in the draft because he doesn’t play a premium position was too much for the Cowboys owner to stomach. So we see him facilitate a move up to grab Adams. The safety out of LSU is one of the more (if not the most) aware players in the draft. He has great instincts and recognition that allow him to play faster than his 4.56-second 40-yard dash time at the combine. He sniffs plays out in a hurry. I think it’s fair to ask if he is truly versatile and if he’s always as willing to fill the alley. He’s just a good football player. Adams has all the intangibles in the world and will add much-needed leadership to the Cowboys’ secondary. Even as a rookie.
