1. Dez Bryant WR
2. Rolando McClainLB
3. Kindle OLB
4. Dan Williams DT
5. Brandon Spikes LB
6.Grisham TE
7. Thomas S
8. Tate WR
9. Benn WR
10. Huges OLB

Bryant is one of those players you dont want to let pass, and this year with our talent level if he is there we cna afford to take him.
McClain-Best player for us IMO
Kindle-Very good fit IMO could be a staple with Wake
Williams-I doubt we do this and i dont really want to, but he is a great talent
Spikes-What will we get with him??? First round gamble
Grisham-idea is good on paper he is great TE, but doubt this materializes because of other needs
Thomas is a good saftey who can help free up Gibril. They have Clemons so they may not waste a fist at S this year,
Tate-Best receiver in the draft not named Dez. Steve Smith part deux
Benn-Best of the rest receiver-strongly doubt this happens but he would be an undoubtable upgrade
Hughes-good little talent, not totally proven. LB is bp's specialty though
 
Good lis bro. My only concern is having Sergio Kindle graded out as a 1st Rounder. You think he will go that high? I could see him falling into our laps in the 3rd round.

That would be great, idk how how he will go, but from what i have seen of him i think he fits our system spot on. He could be oppo Wake for a long time. He would be a great 2nd or 3rd round pick up. But i have a feeling his stock will shoot up.
 
that's a good looking list. i would include Spiller based on playmaking ability, but i think your choices are pretty close.

Honestly, im starting to come around to spiller because he can be the slot and back type but the name i keep seeing with him is Reggie Bush. Now Bush isnt a bust, he can play, but no one, in hindsight, would take him where he was projected to go. Now like RD said earlier, Rush would be a good addition to this team but my fear is that taking Spiller in the first is like trading a first for Reggie Bush. Which i doubt anyone is comfortable doing. P.S.-I also see a lot of Harvin in Spiller which is why he still intrigues me.

IMO Spiller is a tougher runner than Bush. he reminds me more of Chris Johnson than Reggie Bush. we'll see. i think the role of a RB is evolving in today's NFL. you don't see too many pure runners anymore. offenses need all-purpose weapons at RB these days. Spiller is exactly that IMO.
 
My only complain about Kindle is that a strong running game can really neautrilize him. Other than that he is a very good player. I'd rather snag Brandon Graham or Corey Wootton in Round 2 though..
 
I agree he can be an absolute weapon if utilized properly. However, with the PW fiasco i have 0 confidence in the staff utilizing weapons properly. I surely wont be disappointed if he fell to our laps and if i were to insert him in the list it would prob be 3ish. Its kind of difficult for me, i have always been a conservative team builder and hence called for the Long picks and last year i was pleased with the Cb selections. However, this season McCalin and Bryants are the clear cut BPA at Pos of need. If they are both taken by our pick, which i fear, its a whole new ball game. You may very well have your spiller wish come true.

Wooten looks like he could be a very nice player for our type of system. Graham i am not too familiar with, unfort. Kindle does seem rather one dimensional, which seems to be what we have with Wake and Porter. Me seems a little more wellrounded with Wake but putting them both out on a pass rushing island is a bit scary. Wooten cannot compare to the physical force that i see kindle being but i think he is more balanced and could help our team just as much if utilized correctly.

yeah, that's a good point about Pat White, unfortunately.
 
If I were "MOCKING" today I would look at our draft like this....

Round 1: Dez Bryant-WR-Oklahoma State
Round 2: Corey Wootton-OLB-Northwestern
Round 3: Jon Asomoah-OG-Illinois
Round 4: Jimmy Graham-TE-Miami Fl.
Round 6A: Cam Thomas-NT-North Carolina
Round 6B: Torrell Troup-NT-Central Florida
Round 7A:Mike Tepper-Offensive Tackle-California
Round 7B: Damion Fletcher-RB-Southern Miss

If i were "BETTING" later that same day, i would bet we could very well make a far push in the playoffs. haha.
 
CK who is knowledgable with this draft stuff thinks Graham could go higher and I could see it. This kid's value is going to sky-rocket at the combine. We might have to take him in Round 3.

Where do you see ILB help coming from? Also for some reason Wootton scares the heck out of me. I can't put my finger on it but I see Maybin written all over him.

Graham is going to be a freak at the combine, but only playing one year has got to scare people. I know there will be some that see Antonio Gates part deux.

He could move up but I still think he's gonna fall somewhere in the 4th or 5th.
