Would you trade up for Travis Hunter?

[morat1959]

No. We need to be stockpiling draft picks to move up in a draft other than this one, to take a chance on a franchise QB. That’s the only thing that gives us a chance to overcome this incompetent FO.

Mazi Smith + Tyler Guyton + Marshawn Kneeland isnt worth Travis Hunter?

You create 3 starting holes that need filled. AFTER you shorted yourself of draft picks.

We aren't one player away.

Reaching for a need (ol,dl) at 12 is how you end up with Guytons and Mazis

I agree no OL at 12. But the biggest non-QB need is DT and has been for years.

He would have to start at both receiver and cornerback to make it worthwhile because it would cost us at least two of our first-day picks and probably our first-rounder next year as well.

To add to what I was saying:

I'm of the opinion that we should aggressively try to trade down into the late teens, very early 20s if Hunter, Carter, Graham and Jeanty are gone. I think there's a group of second-tier players that would cover that many picks after 12 (WRs Golden, Egkuba, Burden, CBs Johnson and Barron, DTs Nolen, Harmon and Grant and RB Hampton). One or two of those may go before 12, but that still means we could go down as far as 19.

I think at least two QBs (Ward, Sanders), one RB (Jeanty), one WR (McMillan), one TE (Warren), two OL (Membou, Campbell), two DEs (Carter, Walker), one DT (Graham) and one CB (Hunter) go for sure by our pick, so that's 11. I could see one of the corners slipping in in place of either Warren, Campbell or Walker.

 

[J-man]

let me think about that, NO

Since the Cowboys only build through the draft, this shouldn't even be an option. We're not one player away. Had they already shored up multiple positions through FA and trade, then I could see it.

maybe I am missing something, but if he is drafted where would you play him? I get it that he is a great athlete, but is he WR or CB? you can't do both effectively fulltime in NFL. just can't. everyone is just too good.

so as a WR, where does he rank against other WRs in this draft
if a CB where does he rank among CBs in this draft?
