Cowboys fan, eh? Have fun drafting yet another WR.

:lol: :lol:

Seriously though, every year their defense lets them down. What do they do? Draft offense in the first round.

I don't get it!
They will go defense this year though...as long as Kyle Pitts doesn’t slide down to 10, which is very doubtful. They drafted Trevon Diggs-CB-Alabama in the 2nd last year and he had a really solid rookie season and more than likely will add either his former teammate in P.Surtain II or Jaycee Horn from South Carolina, which either should form a nice tandem with Diggs at CB.

Secondary and not linebacker? No problem with that as a fan?

I’m not a Cowboys fan, but I am an Eagles fan so I know the division well. LB is like RB of the defense. Important, but you can find one just as easy in the mid/late rounds, or even undrafted. No point in using an early 1st on one IMO, you take the CB.

Pitts to Atlanta is buzzy today. Here's hoping he actually falls to 6.

For me it would have to be very special LB to take in the early to mid 1st.

I don't disagree, and they can probably trade back and still get him, but isn't Parsons pn that level?

Lots of recent talk about New Orleans wanting to trade up from 28th hard up, maybe into the top 10.

Says who? SF and Kyle are notorious for keeping things tight lipped. I thnk any of us thinking we know who they are taking is speaking out of their...... What I think I know is the HC wants one guy and the scouting team wants another guy. I suspect the HC will win, but who knows.

Kinda where I’m at too. I don’t think Parsons would be a bad pick but they can take a LB in the 2nd or 3rd round, I think CB is the way to go at 10.

For Surtain or Horn?

That'd be a lot to give for a corner

If they decide to go Parsons, if he’s there, I don’t think it would be a bad pick, but I’ve heard that there’s some “character concerns”, don’t know how true that is but I think they can come back in the 2nd or 3rd and get a decent LB prospect, maybe B.Browning-Ohio St., someone like that but I would just go CB at 10, I think it makes more sense with a decent chance that both top prospects in Surtain II and Horn both on the board.

Fair enough. I just really don't see him being the pick

I don't agree with it but I would be surprised if he is above the 5th QB off the board

I'd be happy with Mac Jones to SF for my Aiyuk stonks. Shanahan had Nick Mullens throw for 250 ypg, so if he's taking a pure pocket passer #3 overall I'm confident he'll be able to feed his weapons.
