Talented guy but man you sure would like to see a hell of a lot more production out of the guy in college. To me he is more of a pure LE/3 technique. I don't know that he really fits what we need on this D-line.

He fits as a LDE. Seems like they wanted that anchor left end last year. I'd be okay with picking him in the 2nd-3rd. He's not talented enough for the late 1st.

Give me Edwards in the 2nd and I'm happy. Really liking the names that are coming out on the defensive side of the ball.

Melvin Gordon visiting Cowboys, Cardinals

By Chase Goodbread

Published: March 16, 2015

Two teams that could use some help at the running back position -- the Arizona Cardinals and Dallas Cowboys -- are set to host one of the NFL draft's elite prospects at the position in Melvin Gordon of Wisconsin.

The Heisman Trophy finalist made his way to Arizona Monday, in fact, according to Rand Getlin of Yahoo Sports. The Cardinals, apparently interested in the Minnesota Vikings' Adrian Peterson as well, finished last year second from the bottom in the NFL in rushing at only 81.8 yards per game.

Scouting questions about Gordon, who rushed for 2,587 yards as a senior for the Badgers, include whether he can succeed as a receiver out of the backfield in the NFL. He was rarely thrown to at Wisconsin, and thus put his receiving skills on display at his pro day. Arizona threw frequently to running back Andre Ellington last year (46 catches), but the Cowboys threw even more than that to departed free agent DeMarco Murray (57 catches).

Gordon will also visit Dallas, according to Getlin, as the Cowboys look to fill the void left by the NFL's leading rusher in 2014.

Dallas has signed free agent Darren McFadden, but given McFadden's limited production and injury history, his acquisition wouldn't preclude the club from making a strong move in the draft for a running back.

He is a guy I want to like as a sleeper QB prospect but in this terrible QB class he is going to end up going way too high. I don't want him in the top 3 rounds.
