I'd rather just draft Wentz in all honesty if that's the haul we are getting.
Yeah, if he is there and you like him, don't get cute, just take him.

Especially if the extra returns are a RB and a Box Safety who probably won't be game changers at all for the team. So you missed out on an elite QB prospect for that?

And a CB

Well one of them has to be our original second rounder. So you're not really gaining that at all.
Then make the RB our 2nd. CBs count double.

Yeah, I just kind of like Fuller as a corner so I left him. Cash is a garbage in the box safety in my opinion and while I like Dixon I sure as shit don't like him with the second round pick. I'd rather a safety in the third like Darian Thompson who shows great instincts in pass coverage as a deep zone defender or the RB out of Indiana in the fourth.

If you're trading down better be getting a first in 2017 so you can get the QB you're missing out on.

Yeah don't like any of those guys and for a jump that big I need more.
Yeah I'm not moving from 4 to 15 for a couple of second round picks. If I can have Wentz or Spence/Dixon/Cash? I'm taking Wentz every single time.

If I did that trade I'd probably be more inclinded to move back up into the first to see if I can manage to snag Rankins and Lynch. Dallas needs franchise difference makers.

Just draft one now. You have no idea if future drafts will have anything at QB. This one does.
This would be my strategy. Dallas may not be in the position they are in now for who knows how long. This should be easy. Just pull the trigger this draft for what the team needs long term.

No wikey. If we are desperate for a pass rush, can do better than Spicoli.

He is a guy that I could see our coaching staff claiming doesn't fit our scheme at all and totally not considering him. But who knows.
I think it is more the guy doing the mock going hurrrrr dere's a DE!

I think he is better off in a 3-4.

I think that is probably the case as well. They see a DE listed near the top prospects. They see DE on the Dallas needs list and the match the two up together.
