WR Seems to be the Likely/necessary choice at 12

[Jkyle]

This team can't go wrong by picking any position with the 1st Pick, but WR seems to be position we are most desperate at filling.
Cee Dee is the only legit receiver we have and we don't even have a #2 on the roster.
We have people we can elevate to 2 but they are 3/4 at best.
We for sure could use a Safety, CB, DE, OL, or DL but the need of finding a complement to Lamb is vital.
The Cowboys should have their pick of the top WR's at 12 and might be able to trade down a few spots and still grab one.
If we wait until the 2nd, we will likely be selecting a #2 at best as opposed to selecting a legit 1/2 at pick 12.

You don't know until the 11 in front are gone. If McMillan is gone then you would think they would want to trade down for any of the other WRs.

 

[EST_1986]

Only if we had the first 15 picks to fill the holes Jerry refuses to fill in free agency

 

[DeaconMoss]

Trade down. Lots of holes to fill.

 

[boysfanindc]

I think you could make a case that getting a CB is just as urgent as WR.

Best bet trade down and try to fill multiple holes.

What good is a new receiver going to do if the Line can't protect an increasingly immobile and aging QB? We need O-line help and fast. Wasn't this lesson learned with Romo? Fix the lines and the rest will follow.

AND GO INTO CAP HELL??????????
We've seen teams like the Rams and Eagles DESTROYED for years due to using Free agency! All they've gotten was some superbowl ring. But are they the #1 Team in the world? NOPE.
It's not sustainable having a GM that is more aggressive than a dead slug.
We've been around the rim for decades. One year it'll go in, or something.

This team has a lot of holes, that could use some help at #12, if you're not wearing Hopium glasses.
WR, Corner, DT, Edge, OL, hell could even include RB even though I'm against a RB in the first.
JaVonte Williams and Miles Sanders as the 1-2. Woof.

Why does everyone follow Jerry's line of thinking when it comes to drafting? What's next, more CBs and TEs?

What if we take yet another TE?

Your first sentence is wrong in so many ways. What you're shouting for is just picking a player willynilly because you think he's the best available w/ no regards for anything else.

If we can't stop the run(and we can't), this will be yet another season of spinning our wheels. No WR is more important than building up the Dline.

 

[MoistMayonnaise]

If we don't take a RB before receiver, that will tell you that Jerral and Schotty were lying about run game focus.

Which of course they were.

This was my favorite line.

They use house rules to cripple themselves or else it wouldn't be fair to other teams. The Cowboys are allowed to build the best team possible without the help of free agency.

On both sides of the ball.

Yeah I've been expecting WR since we didn't go that way in FA.

I think Tet is the choice, but wonder if we'd take Golden with Tet off the board, or consider Tyler Warren as our #2 target.

All of this is assuming Jeanty is gone.

Nothing. If the O-Line doesn't hold up, WRs don't matter.

No, it's not wrong.
By the time we get to 12, the TOP player at DLine will likely be gone.
Mason Graham is the only consensus DL worthy of a TOP 15 Pick, all the rest are rated as late 1st round prospects.
If we go there, we will be reaching and overdrafting.
With WR, the TOP players will likely be available at 12. Hunter will be gone by then but all the other Top ranks should be there.
By going WR at 12 you not only fill a need but you are doing so by not reaching.

 

[Mr_437]

When the last game was played the biggest need wasn't a WR, so it's funny now ppl are saying this. 1T, CB, RB are bigger needs...I could even throw in RG. Add in the fact that the available WR at 12 aren't to to level of years past, so the Cowboys would be reaching with first pick. Your not getting a Micah Parsons impact more than likely this draft.

I'm of the opinion all 3 are gone by pick 12. All it takes is two teams that want a WR.

You think that, but remember last year draft when all those qb's were taken. Raiders came up to pick, i think around 12, they could of had the best Defensive player in the draft, then they chose a tight end. Its not out of the realm of possibilities.
