Yeah I would be picking folks in the 3-4th rd range to backfill some of these positions. You really don’t need 1st round picks on the OL outside of the LT spotIt's not my first choice but I wouldn't throw a temper tantrum.
Its not great team building though. Just can't re-sign all these offensive linemen. I'm even wondering if we can keep Collins long term.
And we need some defensive talent badly, enough of the offensive splurging already.Yeah I would be picking folks in the 3-4th rd range to backfill some of these positions. You really don’t need 1st round picks on the OL outside of the LT spot
Expect a heavy dose in the draft. I think we come away with our 1T, Vea or no, and all but redefine our LB corps.And we need some defensive talent badly, enough of the offensive splurging already.
I understand that it is a process.Expect a heavy dose in the draft. I think we come away with our 1T, Vea or no, and all but redefine our LB corps.
I get a half chub just thinking of what that DL rotation would look like on SundaysExpect a heavy dose in the draft. I think we come away with our 1T, Vea or no, and all but redefine our LB corps.
I'm sure we will draft a LBer in this draft but I wouldn't expect it to be redefined if I were you. We just drafted Jaylon in the second round so you know he is in the starter plans. Sean Lee is still here. We signed a guy. We still have Wilson. You're probably talking one, maybe two LBers in this draft and one of the guys is probably your special teams/depth special.Expect a heavy dose in the draft. I think we come away with our 1T, Vea or no, and all but redefine our LB corps.
When Garrett inevitably screws the pooch again this year and is finally fired, the next coach is going to inherit a loaded team and tons of cap space.I understand that it is a process.
Don't think that I don't see what is being built here.
Hopefully next year we get that HC upgrade.
Could you imagine a D-line of Lawrence, Irving, Vea and Taco? Then you have guys like Collins, Crawford and Tapper coming off the bench. We could definitely use another rotational DE but I'd shoot for one in this draft. That's a pretty scary starting 4 though.I get a half chub just thinking of what that DL rotation would look like on Sundays
We need Lee’s replacement badly. It’s insane the degree to which we depend on him to make the defense work, and we know he can’t be relied on. Jaylon’s recovery has a ways to go, and I didn’t see enough good football to warrant confidence in him as an actual starter. Wilson and Thomas are jags.I'm sure we will draft a LBer in this draft but I wouldn't expect it to be redefined if I were you.

Both Evans and Vander Esch are pre-draft visits so I think you're going to get your wish. I'd be surprised if we didn't draft a LB in the first 3 rounds.We need Lee’s replacement badly.

It’s a shaky corps, and has been that way a long time.
Can we for once draft some healthy, physical, and instinctive LBs?
Good call out. It’s gotta happen.Both Evans and Vander Esch are pre-draft visits so I think you're going to get your wish. I'd be surprised if we didn't draft a LB in the first 3 rounds.

That's the backbone of most defenses, but particularly the Tampa2.Good call out. It’s gotta happen.
1T, LB, S, WR need to all be addressed.
He's a confirmed pre-draft visitor?We have Darius Leonard coming in as well.
Of course James Daniels, Will Hernandez and Kolton Miller says we may not be done on the O-line either.

Interesting.
Miller is definitely someone I do not want at 19.https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/2018/3/23/17150408/pre-draft-visits-private-workouts-what-do-they-tell-us-about-cowboys-draft-strategy
That's the site that lists him. It was just recently updated to include James Daniels and Vea along with Darius Leonard. Based on the list as it stands now I'd say Dallas views WR, LBer and Oline as their three biggest needs. And with 3 potential first round O-lineman being brought in I certainly don't think that position is out of the question yet.
Yeah I've heard some call him the top OT in this draft but yeah no thanks. I'd way prefer Hernandez and probably Wynn.Miller is definitely someone I do not want at 19.
Projecting a year or two ahead let alone right now the team is correct in their assessments.https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/2018/3/23/17150408/pre-draft-visits-private-workouts-what-do-they-tell-us-about-cowboys-draft-strategy
