WR Seems to be the Likely/necessary choice at 12

[plasticman]

Jerry Jones's favorite football position is WR. He has constantly demonstrated this.

Jerry has traded more than a #1 pick for a veteran WR three times when he got Joey Galloway, Roy Williams, and Amari Cooper.

He risked the lockerroom and his relationship with the HC when he signed TO.

He drafted Dez Bryant when a lot of teams wouldn't touch him.

If Jerry Jones could play any position he wanted in the NFL then I don't doubt for a second he would be a WR.

WRs are the big playmakers, typically making the most exciting plays. The are confident, brash, and the most controversial players in the league while making the most headlines. This fits Jerry's personality to a tee.

I put the probability that he will draft a WR in the 1st round at around 75%.

If we don't get a stud RB in this draft, forget about next year. We keep forgetting the missing important position for our success. No more dumb running back by committee. Get a #1!!!

I would take Hampton at #12 and not blink an eye. He isn't falling that far and it wouldn't surprise me if Denver trades up for him if he get's past the Cowboys.

No, we wouldn't. There are several DTs rated 1st round, not just late first round.

Value of draftees is not some black and white objective thing. There are many many factors involved. Relying on some weird grading system is what's been getting us into trouble. BPA is a fan thing, no GM would use such a simplistic tool

More WRs does not fix the run game, so it'll be more of the same, losing because we can't stop the run. When will the misery end?

You'll get your way, I'm sure, unfortunately Jerry thinks like that also. More WRs, more WRs, more CBs, more TEs. It's madness.

Remind us who the 1st round (plenty you say) DTs are that aren’t named Graham ( he gone by 12) and who aren’t late 1st rounders? You selling Nolan, Grant, and Harmon? Harmon should be late 1st at best, and mid 1st are slight reaches on the other two. You don’t want them at 12. Finding a sucker to come up to 12 for picks?

Who’s playing CB for the Cowboys this year? Most dependable guy is gone and there’s the Diggs delima, and Carson was overwhelmed in year one. If Will Johnson is there @12 and there’s not a serious discussion, you guys should abandon ship.

A WR could very well be the highest rated player on the board when the Cowboys pick. They could do far worse than finally getting a legit body to take pressure off of CD. They’ve been jamming hopes at the #2 WR and it’s just subpar. You’ve paid your QB. If the BPA on your board is a WR, just take him.

Our only chance is to surround our slug QB with talented weapons and hope he can get them the ball. So if McMillan is on the board it’s a no brainer for me.

Won't matter who's playing CB w/ our DT's.

Maybe Mason Graham or Abdul, but those guys will be long gone.

This WR class has no studs, no one really worth a 1st rounder. You can take an Ayomanor or Tai Felton in the 2nd or 3rd and get about the same level as any 1st rounder.

Right, I like those two WRs. Ayomanor is the best run blocking WR, he lit up Travis Hunter also with a weak QB. Felton is a master at the stop routes McCarthy used to love.
