It wasn’t easy doing this mock draft and having the Cowboys do something I am not sure they should do. But I let my instincts free and this is what happened. Keep in mind that I think the Cowboys still have a good possibility of getting a decent wide receiver in the second round. The third-fifth rounds can go to securing a cornerback and offensive lineman.
| Team |
1st Round |
|
|
1. Miami Dolphins -Chris Long, DE, Virginia
- With an impressive combine showing, Chris Long jumped to the top of almost every mock. Question is, does Miami keep this pick or trade down. Right now, they should keep it and take Howie’s son. He had 14 sacks this year in a 3-4 system and that’s mighty good.
|
 |
2. St. Louis Rams -Glenn Dorsey, DT, LSU
- The Rams look to be rebuilding a bit. Defense has always been a problem for the Rams. Dorsey is a good start to try and revamp the front line. Dorsey was awarded the Bronko Nagurski Trophy, the Outland Trophy, the Lott Trophy and the Lombardi Award, becoming the only player to have won all four awards.
|
 |
3. Atlanta Falcons* -Traded to Dallas Cowboys for both Cowboys first round picks, Bobby Carpenter and Marcus Spears. Dallas gets cornerback DeAngelo Hall and drafts Darren McFadden, RB, Arkansas
- Well, here it is. The first mock where I have the Cowboys trading up. I am having strong instincts with this one. Just keep a close eye on talks with Atlanta now that DeAngelo has pretty much said he won’t be back. There aren’t many of us Cowboys fans left who don’t think Jerry Jones will pass on Darren McFadden.
|
|
|
4. Oakland Raiders* -Sedrick Ellis, DT, LSU
- Ellis will replace retired Warren Sapp. Ellis is super strong and should give offensive lineman fits in the NFL. Raiders could not go wrong with this pick.
|
|
|
5. Kansas City Chiefs* -Jake Long, OT, Michigan
- I struggled with this one because I think the Chiefs may try and take QB Matt Ryan with this pick. The Falcons might have taken him if they keep the third. Long is the best offensive lineman in the draft and he will help the Chiefs reignite that running game.
|
 |
6. New York Jets -Vernon Gholston, LB-DE, Ohio State
- The Jets got a great offensive guard in free agency and they can address the defense with this solid pick. They also will be stealing Gholston from the Patriots who will likely take him at the next pick if he is there. This is payback for CheaterGate. Gholston is a tall, aggressive end/linebacker.
|
 |
7. New England Patriots (From 49ers) -Leodis McKelvin, CB, Troy
- Losing two cornerbacks in free agency is a hit to the Cheaters secondary. If Gholston is gone, this pick is a guarantee to be a cornerback. He is a great corner, who is tall and big. This guy is the total package for a team looking for a corner.
|
|
|
8. Baltimore Ravens - Matt Ryan, QB, Boston College
- The Ravens will dance in the streets if Ryan drops this far. It is very possible. Ryan is the best quarterback in the draft. Many experts say he is NFL ready.
|
|
|
9. Cincinnati Bengals -Keith Rivers, OLB, USC
- The Bengals need all the help they can get on defense. Rivers may be small (only 220 pounds) but he is a super athletic linebacker. He’s fast and aggressive. There are plenty of guys his size who had great NFL careers.
|
 |
10. New Orleans Saints -Mike Jenkins, CB, South Florida
- A great man-to-man cover guy with speed. Jenkins will fit right in for the Saints who gave up the most big plays in the NFL last year.
|
|
11. Buffalo Bills -DeSean Jackson, WR, California
- The Bills continue to have needs on key positions on offense. Still searching for a No. 1 receiver after all these years. DeSean Jackson showed speed in the combines.The only possible problem is he is undersized at just 172 pounds.
|
|
|
12. Denver Broncos -Ryan Clady, OT, Boise St.
- The second best offensive lineman in the draft will head to the Mile High City. The Broncos have a history of great run blocking and Clady may carry that torch into the next decade.
|
 |
13. Carolina Panthers -Jonathan Stewart, RB, Oregon
- The combines opened up a lot of people to the pure size and mass of Stewart. The Panthers could really use a monster like this running the ball for them. He’ll run over many linebackers in the NFL right now.
|
|
|
14. Chicago Bears -Malcolm Kelly, WR, Oklahoma
- Two-thirds of the remaining wide outs on the Bears haven’t played one game in the NFL. Not one snap. Woah. And this team still needs a running back and a quarterback. Yikes. Might as well start with Kelly.
|
|
|
15. Detroit Lions -Aqib Talib, CB, Kansas
- Talib had a great bowl game and his stock hasn’t fallen off much. Secondary is a big hole for the Lions. There is more upside in Talib than any other corner.
|
 |
16. Arizona Cardinals -Phillip Merling, DE, Clemson
- Merling can rush the passer and stop the run. With an improving offense, the Cardinal should draft defense for a few rounds in a row and see if they can hit gold.
|
|
|
17. Minnesota Vikings -Kenny Phillips, S, Miami
- It seems like the entire secondary for the Vikes is gone. The best safety by far in the draft, Phillips is a great addition to any team’s defense. He should contribute right away.
|
 |
18. Houston Texans-Felix Jones, RB, Arkansas
- The other Arkansas running back that some experts say will have a better NFL career than McFadden. Jones can return kicks but his bursting speed is sought after in the NFL. The Texans cannot go wrong with this pick.
|
 |
19. Philadelphia Eagles - Derrick Harvey, DE, Florida
- The Eagles made a splash with the Asanta Samuel grab. Now, Harvey, who can play defensive end or linebacker. He’s tall and lanky. And he is a bit wet with experience. But there is a lot of upside in the versatile Harvey.
|
 |
20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers -Jeff Otah, OT, Pittsburgh
- A team with several needs, it is very possible the Bucs draft a wide out here. But Otah would serve them better. Another late football starter, Otah has a ton of upside. His 6-foot 4 3 40 pound frame makes him one of the biggest lineman.
|
|
21. Washington Redskins-Calais Campbell, DE, Miami
- 6 feet 8 inches tall and 280 pounds. Holy crap. Campbell is a beast. The Redskins will draft Campbell and his impact could be huge in a few years. A pure specimen and a force to be reckoned with.
|
 |
22. Dallas Cowboys (From Browns) - Traded to Falcons, Reggie Smith, CB, Oklahoma
- Gee, I am not too sure the Falcons miss out on Hall much with Reggie Smith coming to town. They get someone with a better attitude and possibly might even be a better cover guy at a far lower price.
|
 |
23. Pittsburgh Steelers -Gosder Cherilus, OT, Boston College
- The Steelers are slightly rebuilding their offensive line.
|
 |
24. Tennessee Titans -Limas Sweed, WR, Texas
- Not a bad snag here at 24th. The Titans desperately need a wide out star for quarterback Vince Young. He has absolutely NO ONE to throw to. Sweed could be a big threat for opposing defenses.
|
|
|
25. Seattle Seahawks -Rashard Mendenhall, RB, Illinois
- I’ve seen several articles now that say the Seahawks may drop Shaun Alexander. He was pretty bad this past season. Mendenhall is a good running back who made Illinois a contender this year. He could go to the Panthers, but either way, I think the Hawks take a runner here.
|
 |
26. Jacksonville Jaguars -Quentin Groves, DE, Auburn
- Auburn defensive players have been doing well in the NFL lately. Groves could be a late first round sleeper. He’s middle sized for an end but he is second all time with 23 sacks for Auburn.
|
 |
27. San Diego Chargers -Kentwan Balmer, DT, North Carolina
- A team with few major needs. Balmer needs some polishing, but he is versatile and can play outside or inside for the Chargers.
|
|
28. Dallas Cowboys -traded to Atlanta, Brian Brohm, QB, Louisville
- The Falcons still address a major need by drafting Brohm here. For a long time I thought Brohn was going to win the Heisman, but he had a somewhat disappointing Senior season. Doesn’t really matter. He’s not a pocket guy, but he has decent strength and he’s a big guy. Atlanta needs a QB and Brohm is the second best.
|
 |
29. San Francisco 49ers (From Colts) -James Hardy, WR, Indiana
- The 49ers have no one that Alex Smith can throw to. Hardy is tall and had good hands. The 49ers have three wide outs to choose from, with Hardy, Manningham and Doucet not picked yet. Any of those three can go right here.
|
 |
30. Green Bay Packers -Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, CB, Tenn St.
- The Packers don’t have a ton of needs. But the secondary is getting a big aged. Cromartie is a guy who had a decent combine and scouts love him. He’s aggressive and has a good attitude.
|
|
|
31. New York Giants -Dan Connor, LB, Penn St.
- The Giants loss three players in one day, all on defense. The linebacker corps is not the same. Connor has the most tackles in Litany Lion history. That’s pretty good for a team with a history of strong defenses. The Giants cannot go wrong with Connor, who will come in right away at OLB.

Looks good for us and it works since we will have to give to make up for the cap space problem. If Arthur Blank sees this he gotta be smilin yall. One hell of a deal for Atlanta. And he could choose to trade Marcus Spears and Bobby Carpenter to Miami if the deal is right. Parcells would like to have these guys back.
March 3rd, 2008 at 8:33 pmDallas should see if they could make a trade with Miami after New York takes their #31 pick. Picks only though at this point if the money is still there. Good CB’s left at this point. Dallas could trade their #59 and their second rounder next year, that ought to get er goin.
March 3rd, 2008 at 8:42 pmNot happening. See Mike Ditka, Vikings, etc…
March 3rd, 2008 at 8:48 pmI hope we do get Darren Mcfadden I think it will be a Wow factor. I know it is a risk but I would hate to regret not talking him and lose to the team he goes to due to some big play by him
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:03 pmSo whats the surprise in the offense if it’s not D-Mac. Do you think the trade will be to Miami,what?
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:04 pmNooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:09 pmSo DC, do you think the trade involves different players, no players from Dallas, or the whole trade up idea in all is just not going to happen?
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:09 pmDon’t think anything will happen. I am sure that Jerry will have to be restrained (spelling??) but we need the picks and not sure how all the trading would mess with cap.
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:18 pmHe says the surprise deal every year, some years he means it other years its Bobby Carpenter!
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:20 pmI don’t like it! Keep our players and draft 2 guys. We should draft a safety,wr,rb. In whatever order.
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:29 pmWow, I make a nice comment praising the Cowboys and Tony Romo and suddenly the entire site’s wonky and the entire post seems gone. That’ll teach me to ever be nice to the Cowboys! As for the draft, I hope to hell Atlanta charges you a bit more for that trade. Otherwise, it could be a long year for us Redskins fans.
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:30 pmGuy, I noticed that. No idea what happened.
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:32 pmI never got to see the answer to my question skinsguy what happened to the posts????
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:33 pmSeriously as deep as this class is I think Jerry needs mental evaluation if he trades TWO first round draft picks for chicken legs McFadden…. a Steve Slaton, Chris Johnson, Ray Rice all are going to be in the 2nd round one of them will fall to us there. I say poo poo to any draft that has Dallas trading up into the top 8 for McFadden. IF he falls to 9th, then I see Jerry going on a firesale for McFadden.
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:49 pmOctopus, for some reason the entire article I posted was deleted. I am trying to figure out what happened. Guy, come again with your post.
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:52 pmIts cool I just asked skinsguy if he thought J.Campbell was better then Romo. BTW dude great site it’s good to see some knowledgable fans!
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:58 pmThanks Octopus. I love the nickname, too. It’s unique and badazz. Bring more people here. Let’s start a revolution. I think we can sway the Cowboys organization. I know some read it. I know they do.
March 3rd, 2008 at 10:13 pmJJ: Stay put!! We need 2 CB’s in round 1!!! We can still get a real good RB in the 2nd round. Javon Walker (if healthy)and Isiah Stanback (if ready) will be an upgrade at WR. 3rd round wold be nice to get either a safety or OG. 4th round would be a good spot for an ILB or FB.
March 3rd, 2008 at 10:43 pmStink back will never play a down at WR CB’s in the 2 rd or later 2. CB Charles Godfrey 6-1 #210 Iowa CB Dwight Lowery - 6- 1 #190 San Jose St CB Patrick Lee 6 #1 200 Aub CB Terrell Thomas 6-1 #200 USC CB Justin King 5-11 #180 Penn St CB Simeon Castille 6 #190 Ala 5. FS Jamie Silvia 5-11 #210 BC FS David Roach 6 #210 6. OT-OG Chad Rinehart, Northern Iowa 6-5 #308 OG Brandon Keith 6-5 #350 Northern Iowa OT-OG Duane Brown 6-5 #302 Vir Tech
March 3rd, 2008 at 11:12 pmI do not understand why everyone hates Stanback????? Please explain! First year in the league after playing QB his entire career… Antwaan Randle El anyone? His rookie year in Pit with Hines Ward and Plaxico Burress on the team… We had T.O. Crayton Austin and Hurd…. so because we didn’t play our 5th string WR in a transition year he’s terrible? landryhat your thoughts on Stanback?
March 4th, 2008 at 12:09 amHas anyone seen Stanback play in college, he would definitly be a great run/after catch receiver, great scrambling abilities and a pretty good arm for trick plays and such. I can really see why JJ wants him for the future. I can see him replacing TO in a year or two. I think he would fit in good on returns as well with his abilities to cut and run. Reminds me a lot of (god forbid) M.Vick.
March 4th, 2008 at 1:38 amThat was Michael not Marcus.
March 4th, 2008 at 1:40 amI saw this on another pretty reliable blog: Update (3/3/08) — After all of our tenders, re-signing Flozell Adams and trading Jason Ferguson, we’re now $3,807,787 under
March 4th, 2008 at 2:11 amthe cap. We’ll need about $2.2 million of cap room to sign all of our
rookies, but we won’t need most of that until mid-July, when we’ll
start signing our draft picks. We have plenty of options for easily
gaining cap room if we need it, including signing Ken Hamlin to a
long-term contract, restructuring Tony Romo’s contract or giving
Terrell Owens an extension.
That would put us pretty good for cap room.
March 4th, 2008 at 2:13 amI would love to see the Cwoboys get their hands on DeAngelo Hall. I would put him way above a player like Darren McFadden on an NEED basis. To get them both, I think your dreaming but I do hope your dreams come true!
March 4th, 2008 at 5:44 am[...] The Landry Hat [...]
March 4th, 2008 at 5:49 amSince the Iggles signed Chris Clemons, I don’t think they will draft a DE at all. Right now they have Trent Cole, Victor Abiamiri, Juqua Thomas, Chris Clemons, Darren Howard, and Jerome McDougle(likely to be cut). There really is not room for another DE now.
March 4th, 2008 at 8:11 amFavre away…..GB QB retires
March 4th, 2008 at 8:32 amFavre away….GB QB retires. Great athlete. Did some great things for Green Bay. Now that leaves that division open for the Lions to take over (j/k). Dallas alone at the top of the NFC this year……
March 4th, 2008 at 8:36 amits not a dream to get them both thats good for the falcons theyve been trimming the fat off their cap space and are looking to rebuild their team theyl have the money to afford two first round players its a win win for both of us, wel keep barber and get d-mac to replace julius jones and its always easy to rearrange stuff to make room in the salary cap everyone manipulates it to work out its hard to mess it up unless your name is daniel snyder
March 4th, 2008 at 9:20 ama dream would be getting rid of roy williams without it hitting the cap in a supremely negative way…
March 4th, 2008 at 9:21 amWell I wrote two whole lengthy comments on the Romo vs Jason Campbell issue. I’ll try to recreate. Let’s hope me praising the Cowboys isn’t some catalyst to end the world or delete this article or whatever.
Basically you’d have to be a much bigger homer than I am to even think it’s close. Romo is the real deal and Campbell is a work in progress. Last year after Romo’s late-season decline and his disasterous botched hold in the playoffs, I was convinced he was a one-hit wonder. Teams would study him in the offseason and would figure out how to stop him and he’d suck. I ate those words in a big way. I’m convinced he’s the real deal and he is a top 5 quarterback in the league. I hate that he’s playing for you guys but I recognize he’s got talent. Campbell has potential but he’s not there yet. He’ll run around and mount some sort of exciting comeback that just barely falls short of winning. He’s inches away from doing miraculous things but those inches are everything. Until he actually pulls through in the clutch and starts winning those games, he’s still just a prospect. His accuracy often frustrates me too. He’s constantly over or underthrowing his receivers in the deep passes and he makes them stop and wait for the ball in the short to medium passes. He needs to learn to hit them in stride. With luck, Zorn will be able to help him with that, but we’ll see.
March 4th, 2008 at 9:25 amI think I also mentioned that Tony Romo has impressed me with his leadership. It’s not an accident that Terrell Owens threw McNabb (and Garcia before him, and even his head coach Mariucci) under the bus and then emotionally defended Tony Romo immediately after a disappointing loss. Owens had every reason to repeat his traitorous ways and yet he stood up for Romo instead, making himself look a little silly in the process. Everyone laughs at Owens crying — and I admit I think it’s funny myself — but I also sort of cringe at the fact that Romo can get a guy like this to tow the party line and be a team player. That’s leadership, and it’s something McNabb clearly lacked.
March 4th, 2008 at 9:29 amfarve hangs it up boys, end of an era, and time for the new improvisor to take over…..go ROMO
March 4th, 2008 at 9:34 amat first look i said no way. after thinking about it i kind of like it if the cap dictates it possible. hall can be a cancer but the boys have done well w/ those types…see Owens, Charles Haley and even mental cases..see Underwood and Spellman. we are deep at LB and Hall is an upgrade from Reeves. you all know JJ loves to make a splash, Mcfadden must be his "wow" factor. whatever the outcome, pray it works!
March 4th, 2008 at 9:42 amthis is romos year i think… he has a full season of starting experience and he has seen the utmost of media scrutiny and attention after this year and the jessica simpson thing, i know he said it didnt affect him but im sure all that attention was new and weird, now there are no more surprises, hes seen what the media storm is like, he has the experience, and the desire to prove himself after his first two playoff losses…. this year is the cowboys year and everyone knows it, and the nfc east is the strongest division in all of football, and the pats suck! ……………….. yea its the end of an era with Favre, but hey, at least we should have no problem winning at green bay this year and snapping that ugly winless record up there
March 4th, 2008 at 9:44 amby the way i never said i didnt like mcfadden, only that he wasnt worth giving up our 2 picks to trade up with miami, but if we get hall, at least we get a corner, and we still keep barber, i like the barber-dmac combo cuz barber can break through guys and dmac can run away with it, this should be our year
March 4th, 2008 at 9:47 amthanks for the insight on romo skinsguy, i think your right and i as a cowboy fan had the same feeling about romo. i thought an undrafted freeagent, come on, fatass what are you trying to do? i figured it was to lite a spark under bledsoe’s ass and get him thinking more out there. well the rest is history. romo will be a great talent find for us and will be the lasting touch of parcells on this era of the dallas cowboys. so be it. now jerry took things from jimmy, and he can take things from parcells. jerry still owns this team, and he still puts his brand on it’s ass, so we gotta go with him. you can say what you want, but jerry wrote all the checks that brought these championships here. if jerry decides to take a shot at this mcfadd trade, i’m a go with it. if he keeps the 2 picks, i’m still a go. if he trades out of the first and stockpiles picks and depth? still a go……why? because in my mind we have the greatest, most dedicated to winning, (and turning a buck) owner in the league. the one thing about jerry, he ain’t afraid of tryin……
March 4th, 2008 at 9:50 amOh hell no I hope your wrong. Just the fact that the Cowboys would trade Carpenter would cost 4.5 mil in dead salary cap money. Hall is good but he would also be a locker room cancer. Mcfadden is aslo good but I also think he is over rated. there are plenty of backs that the Cowboys could pick up who are just as good as D-mac. with the 22nd pick the Cowboys should get Rogers-cromatie and with the 28th pick they should pick get early doucet or felix jones. That’s what’s up y’all….
March 4th, 2008 at 12:46 pmYou can wait until five to trade down with Michael Turner now in the ATL
March 4th, 2008 at 3:04 pmthe more i look at it now i’m thinking we keep carp. and slip akin in there instead. i was’nt sure where we were with carp’s contract, but that could be a factor if ot’s too hard o hit to swallow. thomas at least lets us chew on the options. and you might be right about cromontie and felix? this is just speculation. but when jerry says he’s got a surprise we all gotta assume BIG or what the hell’s the use. i think yeah, there are maybe a few better backs ranked ahead of mcfadd, but for what use? an every down back? with barber here, would jerry be drafting mcfadd as a work horse? no. he’s a game breaker that we don’t have on the ground. the saints tried it with bush and it worked when they used him in that capacity. so why all the bashin on mcfadd. if he’s in the right place and used the right way, you naysayers are sayin he’s the wrong pick. if he gets in the open field on a quick screen and goes 70 for 6 we’ll see alot of eyebrows lifted. who the hell are some of you guys to sit there and say this is the DEFINITE thing to do. yeah we need corners. yeah we could get another feasable back in the draft, and it may go that way anyway, but if jerry does move up and make a deal like this, stop actin like you’ll never watch another cowboy game again because your just so discussted with the way jerry went. come on, we got a HELL of a team NOW, and adding a guy like mcfadd, as TERRIBLE as that would seem to be? i guess we’ll just have to be pissed off all year at all those exciting offensive series were going to have on the way to the bowl……wow
March 4th, 2008 at 5:56 pmRedskin Guy,I nearly fell off the chair…w/ the Romo praise…I will say this at this point yes he is better than Campbell…but to throw some love back your way, we need to understand Campbell has gone thru to many O Cord., and losing one of the greatest coaches of all times will not help. However, if he is given the chance and the right circumstances he to will shine. Remember, Romo sat for years, JC was thrown into the fire w/ a lot of changes…I saw the guy play in college and i believe like Romo he has "It".
March 4th, 2008 at 6:48 pmSkinsguy, I brought that question up because a radio show up here in dc had tons of ppl. calling in saying Campbell was better than Romo. I was curious if you were in the same boat. It turns out you are not just a blind homer fan like most skins fans I know. I agree Campbell has tons of potential. He has size,big arm,and good legs. It just seems his accuracy is a lil off on those short routes.
March 4th, 2008 at 7:25 pmCampbell also got next to no experience in his first year. He got an amazingly small percentage of snaps and was really just an afterthought. I think we really botched that job up; Gibbs was just so obsessed with Brunell at the time. I’m hoping Zorn has the time to be the teacher they hired him to be.
March 4th, 2008 at 8:21 pmOctopus, I’m in the DC-baltimore area. What radio show was that? I don’t get the Snyder-owned propaganda stations but most of the local Radio shows are pretty down on the Redskins as a whole (the media hates Dan Snyder, even here). I’ve actually found many Redskins fans to have, if anything, a depressingly bleak outlook on our team. Rather than homers, we get a lot of whiners and bitchy gripers who insist that they should complain loudly because they earned the right due to the twenty bucks they shelled out a week to park in the stadium and the six dollar sodas.
March 4th, 2008 at 8:30 pmAccording to The Ranch Report and the NFL Network Javon Walker just signed a huge 55 Mil 6 year contract with Oakland
March 4th, 2008 at 8:48 pmRedskins guy, it was sportstalk 980 Dave feldman and Carol Mallony show a while back during the season. I just couldnt believe the ppl calling in that day. I guess I see the other side of the skins fans around here cuz I support the Boys. Btw Im in the germantown side of md.
March 4th, 2008 at 9:23 pmWe all live pretty close to one another. Let’s toilet paper RG’s house, Octopus. By the way Octo, did you see the addition to the sidebar on the right? See if you find it. You’re famous now and forever a part of this site.
March 4th, 2008 at 9:33 pmHAHA thats awesome! Where does every1 else live? Thanks bro!
March 4th, 2008 at 9:48 pmThelandryhat is my hero! Other sites are not worthy!
March 4th, 2008 at 9:55 pmOctopus…I live in Buena Vista, Va., about 50 miles north of Roanoke…(6 miles from VMI)…where do you live?
March 5th, 2008 at 6:29 amI live in Germantown Md, about 30 miles west on DC.
March 5th, 2008 at 7:42 amI’m in Columbia Maryland, in between DC and Baltimore right off of 95. As for the sportstalk 980, I do listen to them all the time and I can see that sort of thing happening if it was during the season, especially if it was right before the Cowboys-skins played a game. It doesn’t make their statements any less outrageous, but I bet you could find fans from any team get worked up like that about a division rival.
March 5th, 2008 at 10:01 amYeah man mos def. So you live in Columbia haha! Looks like Landryhat and I are gonna tp your house HAHAA………JK BRO!
March 5th, 2008 at 11:05 ammel kipers updated mock draft is in. he has the boys taking felix jones and then brandon flowers. interesting and would fill needs.
March 5th, 2008 at 11:53 amHey Partners…or I should say neighbors. I live in Silver Spring MD. we should all make a riot at some upcoming deadskins event lol j/k. I much rather see kiper’s mock draft happen, but knowing Jerrah who knows??
March 5th, 2008 at 1:33 pmMy house is the one with the Burgandy and Gold decour. Bring it on baby. :)
March 5th, 2008 at 3:33 pmI actually love this whole idea. I don’t think it will happen in a million years, but I love it just the same. It doesn’t resolve the old-WR issue, but getting D-Hall would immediately change how opposing coordinators could game plan the Cowboys. Where do I drop off my ballot?
March 5th, 2008 at 7:04 pmGIANTS ROCK
March 6th, 2008 at 10:53 amGiants yeah they won the big game. But the Cowboys beat themselves in the playoffs. I’m not trying to diss. them but really the giants had huge luck to get there and to win it. And Asante Samuel choked in the end of the super bowl. Eli got really lucky! But yeah the giants won……and now you can go back to the giants website.
March 6th, 2008 at 11:34 amhey man, LOVE the site. just curious, are you basing this trade on anything or is this just a hunch? if you are basing this on something, will you tell me where you got it?
March 8th, 2008 at 1:10 amSeriously love this site!! I’m here in Big-D and a lifetime Cowboys fan. I can’t say as I completely agree with the trade up, but it would definitely throw the draft into chaos. I wonder what Mel Kiper would say….lol.Hey Redskin…you’re alright. I know there is a strong divisional rivalry, but I respect the Redskins (unlike Philly). If there are any Philly fans out there…YOU GUYS SUCK!!
March 8th, 2008 at 10:56 pmAs intriguing as this may be, simply put, the cowbowys do not have the cap space to accomidate this. With Hall’s final year (assuming it isn’t reworked before he is actually signed) and the huge pay out for a #3 pick in the draft… we do not have the space for this. I know droping Spears and Carp will take help a little… but it will be exactly that, a little. These guys received decent signing bonuses as 1st round picks and would still be owned millions which takes away the savings you get in droping their salary. Why not this… keep the picks, Draft a CB and RB (can get a decent WR in 2nd-3rd round) Release Roy Williams, move Hamilin over to SS, Henry to FS and get an actual man cover corner. Henery is decent, but he really excels in a zone defense and the move to FS will keep his career going for another 3 years longer. Just my 2cents.
March 18th, 2008 at 12:53 amYou say that the Bills are looking for a No. 1 at wideout? Have you heard of Lee Evans? Malcom Kelly is way better than Jackson….you need to reconsider that pick.
March 18th, 2008 at 7:08 pmIf Dallas signs Pac"onedollar"man, you may be right in the attempt to trade up. I would rather see Dallas use both of its picks to get a RB, WR or CB/S. Some good RB’s will fall to the late 1st round. Plus it will save the huge cost of signing a high pick
March 25th, 2008 at 8:44 pmThe more I look at it I would like them to grab Hardy.From http://condraft.com/mocks/round-1.htmlPICK #29 The 49ers Pick:James Hardy (WR, Indiana)With Bryant Johnson and Issac Bruce on board, and Darrell Jackson cut, the 49ers could still use a young playmaker outside. James Hardy of Indiana is one of the more interesting prospects in the draft, based on his size-speed ratio (ran a sub-4.6 at the combine), and college production. A red zone monster, the 6’6 Hardy is a mismatch for any defensive back in college or the pro’s. Indiana isn’t a high-profile team, so if you didn’t catch Hardy this season, the stats say a lot: 74 catches, 1075 yards, and a whopping 16 touchdowns. Hardy failed to score a td in only ONE game this season, a loss at Wisconsin.
March 27th, 2008 at 7:01 pmI think your initial trade idea between the Falcons and Cowboys would have been a classic one, and would have benefitted both clubs. But with Hall in Oakland now (what a good get for the Raiders; are they on the rise or are they Fool’s Gold?) what do you think the odds are of Jerry getting up in that Top 5 for McFadden. I put in my most recent mock that he’s going to have to settle for Felix Jones, a guy that I think is going to be a very good pro in his own right.
