Pacman Trade Losing Steam?

Alan, I think I answered your question/

Alan, Goose's mock makes sense to me, but Hardy's character is an issue. Felix is a poor man's Dorsett (but gets tackled easier and may not have the strait ahead power that Tony had). Tough to pass on the top cover safety too if available as we nned someone to spell Williams on obvious passing downs. There are some decent CB's to be had in the second if they can move up (Cason, Flowers, King, Porter and Godfrey (who they like) are still there. Maybe "Grateful Dead" Talib may fall too and would be worth a second round gamble

How far down do you see Terrence Wheatley been taken?

I have heard some good things on Justin King though. He is a high character guy from what i've read

If Talib is there at 28, I say take him. But it depends on what players are still on the board, and what we have done at 22. If we get Stewart at 22 (the only back I'd take at 22), then I'd go ahead and grab Talib. WR is a position we can get in the second, even third rounds (Will Franklin or Donnie Avery?). I think Justin King is a second round guy. I'd honestly like us to trade 28 for a couple of 2nd round picks.

Sorry, my previous post about the goose's mock had a link but it didn't come out right.  here it is again.  http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/stories/041208dnspomockdraft.532bcdf5.html

question is do you take Talib at 28 if were to fall down that far?? I been seeing alot of mocks that have us pick Justin King at 28.

I wouldn't be surprised if Talib is around at 28 due to his character concerns.

I agree Alan that whole Mock doesnt look right, I found myself questioning some of those picks. I also think our very first pick needs to be a CB if the pacman trade happens.

Don't count on Aqib Talib becoming a cowboy.  He had scheduling conflicts and couldn't make the "Dallas Day" workouts.  http://cowboysblog.dallasnews.com/archives/2008/04/dallas-day-done.html

The "Goose" has the boys taking Felix Jones at 22 and James Hardy at 28.  It's about time he came out with his mock, but the whole thing just doesn't look right to me.http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/stories/041208dnspomockdraft.532bcdf5.html

Since now we can all get along I just saw the worst mock draft ever.....http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/football/cowboys/stories/041208dnspomockdraft.532bcdf5.html

Truce, indeed, my friend! Thanks so much. So do you guys think the Boys may give Kelly a shot in the second or third round after that horrible Pro day? I think he's faster than 4.68

All right GPHizzle, I will delete the post. But just review your comments at me and think about why you said it. You weren't cool about it. You attacked me. And I fought back. You are welcome here. And you can criticize me. But be constructive. Did I miss a new story? Then discuss it here or at the forums. Attacking me will throw you in the canner real quick, especially here. Truce?

steamroller, i was born in Henderson Texas. It's about an hour and a half southeast of Dallas. Believe it or not, I didn't go to my first Cowboys game at Texas Stadium until Until October 10, 2004 when the Giants beat the Cowboys. Tiki went crazy on our defense. But that was the year before our great draft for Ware, Barber, Canty. etc.

That's cool gphizzle, just as long as you're not THAT guy. Where are you from. I was born in Ranger, raised in Stephenville. Hell we might know each other. It's a small world. I have been working in Dallas now for 10 years.

Who's got some new news on the Boys. Haven't heard any new news as of lately anywhere, so LandryHat I know why it's so hard to write a post as of lately. I'm there with you on that. Do you have plans on another interview in the near future? Wade Phillips?

Steamroller, I was born and raised less than two hours from Dallas. My dad used to root for the 'Boys when Landry was still the coach. And so I learned to love them and do the same. I was thrilled with the Super Bowl victories that we had in the '90s. But now I want more. I think that we are on the cusp of a dynasty. You may have found my name and email address on some sites, but I assure you I am NOT a Patriots fan. Last year, I felt that BeliCHEAT ran up the score on us at the last second and was very classless. I could never ever support that team. I will die with a Blue Star on my heart! That is for real

Don't say Tony Romo, that would be gay. WHAT TEAM DO YA LOVE? And LandryHat, I don't want to know where you found that lovable guy fun link. I can't believe you linked it here. I almost clicked but I was afraid of what I might see. Kind of like when my brother tricked me int going to 2girls1cup. DON'T GO THERE!!!

Landry Hat, I am a hardcore Cowboys fan. This Pacman thing has got me frustrated (I want the deal to get done). I didn't intend to attack you, my friend. We are fans of the same team. I eat, breath, and sleep the Dallas Cowboys. I issue you an apology if I came at you the wrong way. But please remove my personal information from your comments page, and please do not try to embarrass me. If you want me to leave the blog, I will. Go Cowboys, Super Bowl Champs 2009!!

gphizzle, convince me you are a Cowboys fan, tell me how much better the Cowboys are compared to the Patriots. WO DO YA LOVE?

Hey I dont stand up for it...You work your tail off trying get us Cowboys info and this loser is acting all retarded. Mad props to Landry Hat, You the MAN.

Number-9, I agree. The Patriots fans cannot take the heat of a cheating season and a wasted season that seemed so promising. They lost all those bragging rights to the NY Giants of all teams. Some argue it wasn't the biggest upset in Super Bowl history because of the Jets-Colts game, but personally, that game didn't come close to this upset.
But Ghizzle porn star isn't impressing me with his attacks on The Landry Hat. I think he is outnumbered. Wait until Lance catches this. Even Steamroller won't stand for this.

Im starting to think Lame-triots fans are worse than E-gals fans. At least E-gals fans wont hide or run for cover. Screw the pats...holders of the most meaning less 18-1 record ever

If Mike Jenkins falls to 22nd I would draft him in a heart beat and then get either James Hardy or Devin Thomas with the 28th pick, This is a very deep running back draft so we could still get a good RB in the 2nd round. Also trading the 28th pick is also a good possibility. I would take cason at 28. I think he is a late 1st-early 2nd. Justing King doesnt look like a bad pick at 28 either. I think DR-C will be gone by 22. I dont agree with drafting Kenny Phillips unless were getting rid of Roy williams or were not willing to pay Ken Hamlin a huge long term contract.

gphizzle, then hit the high road brother if you aren't happy with what you get. I think you have some ulterior motives tough guy that I don't want to have to deal with here.

After looking at some writeups, looks like Jenkins issue was relatively minor and has some good interviews. Hope he driops to us. I see some mocks have us taking Cason. Is he rated that high?  Hardy was accuses of hitting his girlfriend. Scratch him off the list.  With that kind of respect for woman, he may have a better chance running for governor of New York

No foozball on tv is killin me!  I hate the baseball!  UGGGGGGHH.

Drafting a WR is risky, but physical specimens like James Hardy do not come around very often. I too would take a CB first, but the best ones might be gone by #22 (or the character issue ones). I was watching some Felix Jones highlights the other day. Seems like he has a little of a poor-man's Tony Dorsett in him.  If he would be half as good as Tony, he still would be a decent pick. Would not let Stewart go if around at #22. If they are not willing to take a chance on Jenkins or Talib I might take a shot at Kenny Phillips or go with Jones or Hardy and see what falls to 28. We may be stuck taking a chance on a second tier CB in the second round (Smith, King, Godfrey or Porter). Should be fun on draft day to see how things pan out.
