The Boys are blessed to have a 1-2 punch of Miles Austin and Dez Bryant at WR, not many teams have that kind of talent there... but it hurt badly when Laurent Robinson followed the big bucks out of town, and the Boys seem to be counting heavily on Dwayne Harris, Raymond Radway and Andre Holmes to pick up the slack...
I'm not sure if there's a 3rd receiver in that bunch, though, so I'm looking for some help at WR from this draft, and after... ideally, I'd like a smallish, quick slot receiver who can help out in our return game (which pretty much sucks right now)...
The team doesn't seem to be looking at any WRs early, the highest rated prospects they've shown interest in are Mohamed Sanu from Rutgers and Juron Criner from Arizona... both of these wideouts are bigger types, not really ideally suited for playing in the slot, so I don't know how serious their interest is in these two...
I try not to target any one player too closely, but I'm making an exception for a likely 3rd round prospect, Ryan Broyles from Oklahoma... even though he missed a big chunk of last season with injury, he is the NCAA's all-time leader in receptions with 349... he is perfect for the slot receiver role, and offers some value as a kick returner... if I'm running this draft, I'm targeting him for my 3rd round pick, and keeping my fingers crossed... I'd really like to see this kid in a Cowboys uniform...
The middle rounds are where I look for the action to start at WR, where they'll be picking from among the likes of TY Hilton from Florida International, Jarius Wright from Arkansas or Devon Wylie from Fresno State...
After the draft, the Boys should be looking at some big receivers like Lance Lewis of East Carolina, Toney Clemons from Colorado or Dale Moss from South Dakota State... there are a couple of nice speed receivers worth a look too, Jeremy Ebert from Northwestern and Luther Ambrose from Lousiana-Monroe... Ambrose is a track man who only came into his own as a football player over the last half of last season...
I'd really like to draft Broyles in the 3rd, then add one or two players from the group including Clemons, Moss and Ebert...
