  1. Other than Caleb Downs all these vaunted Ohio State defenders were pretty invisible when they were forced to play good teams like Indiana and Miami.

  2. We CANNOT use another first on the O line. we’ve already invested 3 of the last 4 picks there, it’s just not proper asset management. We just got plenty of production out of FA flier rb as well. BPA on Defense all the way

  3. Well first we have to see who is the DC to maybe understand what the scheme will be but after that you need someone that can get consistent pressure on the QB. I dont care who your corners are if the QB can sit back there and just wait eventually someones getting open. So for me Edge would be the first thing I'd look at. If by chance one of the top guys falls to you like Downs you just have to take him. Really need a field general for the defense that has instincts so a solid middle LB is probably #2. Maybe scheme fixes the pass rush issues but we saw it all year, no pressure and WRs getting open eventually. What you cant fix in FA has to be the focus. Rt if they cut Steele will be important, but the defense was a wreck, if they spent the entire draft on it I wouldnt have an issue. Got to hit on those later round guys though.

  4. ATTENTION….There are two tems in the Top 10 who needs a WR…what if Jerry Traded Pickens to move up into the Top 10…now we will have 3 first rounds….then trade out of the first round and pick up more picks (2-3)…Cowboys will have 3 first rounders 2nd and 3rd rounders….they could rebuild the defense with all those picks

  5. The Cowboys should trade down from 12 with Houston and get their #1, #2 & #3 or their #1 & both # 2s. Then draft Sonny Styles, and David Bailey in rnd 1. Use the two 2s or 2nd & 3rd for Dillon Thieneman and Jerod McCoy. That's smarter and fills Infinitely more needs. Chances are we're back to a top ten defense afterward!

  6. Trade back with both 1st round picks. Try to get your 2nd and 3rd round picks back from trading both picks back. If they can do that draft needs are pass rusher, off tackle, corners, linebacker and safety. I am assuming pickens and williams are resigned.

  7. My hope is they can swing a Maxx Crosby or Danielle hunter in a trade.
    With that they can void drafting edge high and go Delane and trade back, then pick up CJ Allen.
    Trading from 20 likely gets them a second which they can take a safety with and then edge or OT at the end of day 2.
    Pick up another edge or LB in FA and u go into next season with Crosby/Hunter, Delane, CJ Allen, Round 2 safety, Round 4 Edge, and a FA LB.

  8. The 4-5 players that we do want will be gone unfortunately. We will have to trade back and hopefully pick up a second round pick. I don’t see us keeping the #12 pick.

  9. Cassius Howell is not first round material. In big games, Howell was very quiet. Against more inferior teams he accumulated most of his accomplishments, but when it counted – in games against Miami and Texas – he disappeared.

  10. Cowboys should trade its GB pick down to accumulate more rounds such as a later first rounder, and a second or a third. Proctor and Lomu are second round picks.
