Dallas94Ware Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 14 hours ago, quiller said: A lot of how this up coming draft will depend on how the team feels about Gallup. If they do not see keeping him then a high pick will be used in WR I imagine. I would love a OT in the first and keep Smith at guard …. But this seems unlikely My next step should be looking at the D draft picks last time Zimmer was here get an idea what type of players he want… With Cooks age and Gallups price and increasing age, it makes sense.to draft a WR early on either way. And when there is a player like Marvin Harrison Jr available (who reminds me more of Larry Fitzgerald than Marvin Harrison) you put a second mortgage on your house to go up and get him if you can. Price would be steep but the talent drop from Harrison to the next tier is just as steep. That's not saying the next tier is that bad (they aren't) it's saying Harrison is THAT good.

There’s not a chance Dallas has the draft capital to go get MHJR. Short of trading Dak or Parsons they ain’t getting close to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re living in fantasy land. Not a chance we are within striking distance. Detroit wanted Ware and #11 when we inquired about moving up to draft Calvin Johnson. This is similar. Maaaaybe Micah and #24 does it, but even that, I doubt. Not gonna happen. Edited February 11 by Nextyearfordaboyz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, do you really mortgage everything for a WR when Dak Prescott is the QB? I wouldn't. I'd mortgage the future for a different QB, but not a WR, and I think Marvin Harrison, Jr. is a walking HOF player in the making. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiller Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I am not in favor of spending capital to get 1 elite guy unless that is a can’t miss DL prospect and I don’t see that in this years draft. I will keep harping OL WR OL RB LB much in that order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atran35 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Is this draft deep enough to trade back? Draft LB; C; OT is my main focus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaddHatter Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 "5 national scouts/writers" were used to create this "big board" but when I see Byron Murphy above Jer'Zhan I'm skeptical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how it figured the comp picks but it gave me 7… 24 Graham Barton OL 56 Edgerrin Cooper LB 87 Johnny Wilson WR 173 Roger Rosengarden OL 213 Frank Gore Jr RB after here just throw a dart at things! 231 Tanner Bortolini OL 242 Braiden McGreggor edge i was happy with OL choices and WR not sure about Cooper but had high marks it rated out very high and Gore would be a kick in his pants to his dad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure couldn’t win games on his own at Detroit and at LA with out “help” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t know much about Gore at this point. Good bloodlines though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
