This is true...but...

Unless Philly or Los Angeles jumps up in the top three and snags a quarterback...

Starting to think Dallas will take a quarterback...whether they have to offer a counter deal or trust the top order stays and take one at their pick...

I don't see the Cowboys taking a QB, Cowboys will go DLine, RB or trading down

Two things that Jerry Jones covets: Head Coach Sean Payton and Quarterback Drew Brees...

QB Jared Goff is the closest thing to Drew Brees in some drafts...

Tony Romo hasn't been able to finish a complete season and has injuries that have him already in a fragile state...

Cowboys have a terrific defensive line; though I could see taking Bosa or Buckner and shipping off a veteran DE for a second or third round pick...

There's no way in today's NFL teams should be taking RBs in the first round; there's way to much wear and tear going on and it's not just the Saints that have learned to find UDRFA RBs...

Kinda expect either the Rams (now going to Los Angeles, need a splash) or the Eagles from pick 8 (need a quarterback to advance in the playoffs) to make a move and jump to the top of the first round and grab an elite...

If they don't, the Cowboys will be hard-pressed to pass on a quarterback who could be needed to start games for them by mid-season with a fragile Romo; they were a tough out last year, even without a quarterback...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

ok lets go with BPA at 12 then. Not needs or draft history based.

Let Ingram start at one goal line and PT start at the other. When they crash at mid field and the dust settles you have.

Ezekiel Elliott RB OSU 5115 225 4.47

Right now I am leaning this way.

We have need at RB and we all now Ingram is odds on favorite behind Byrd not to play 16 games

Treadwell as a steady Freddie for Drew would not bother me one bit. On the bright side of things that 40 times opens a window to trade down a bit get a few picks and still have an honest shot at getting Treadwell. If by chance the gamble does not pay off Josh Doctson could be the other option out there.

Either way Treadwell or Doctson and a gamble trading down and adding picks just looks better and better with each passing day. I now have the best bet to trade up and get ahead of the dolphins is the raiders. Target CB. that is just a move from 12 to 14 and we could get 2 additional picks. end of day 2 and the start of day 3.

If the football gods do not deal us habd from the bottom of the deck, I call it a win win.

I'm back. Keeping up occasionally. Had my hands full with a newborn for the past few months but thankfully reading B&G on my phone only takes one free hand...

Our son arriving is a whole other crazy story but being our first child, I am humbled on a daily basis and dumbfounded at how quickly 24hrs evaporates without anything but feeding and diapers getting accomplished.

Good to see all the familiar "off season faces" here. You are the ones who make this site great.

You know what JP? I don't like my picks either. In fact, I'm going to vault Billings to my Round 1, number 12 pick.

He's THAT good. Can be a force in either the 3-4 or 4-3, great push and a very quick, agile player at 6'2" and 300+ lbs.

He's my final choice.

Well may your newborn be Blessed with Health and Happiness, Brother...

Humbling?!? Never truer words posted...time moving faster?!? get ready...

Glad you're doing what you can to check in...No question you've got you're priorities squared away...

Again, wish you and your family the very best...
