So, a few friends and I had an argument about which offensive players you would sign off on getting picked in the first round. I was curious about what you guys thought. Obviously we all agreed that we hope the cowboys shore up the defense with the pick (DE, CB preferably), but everyone was fine with the boys drafting Todd Gurley with #27 if he were to fall that far. I said I would also be fine if Dorial Green-Beckham - baggage and all - dropped to 27 and the cowboys drafted him. You would have thought I said I was going to work for Barefoot Athletics with the fit they threw.
I understand that wr is the last position we need to be drafting, but here is my rationale on why I would live with this pick:
1. He is so talented there is no way he should be around that late.
2. You couldn't double cover Dez as much.
3. If he had a stellar rookie season, it would put pressure on Dez to meet closer to the middle with the Boys on his long term contract.
4. Dez had questions marks, albeit not as serious, and he fell much farther than he should have as well and it has turned out extremely well for us.
Again, I hope we are able to get a DE or a CB with the first pick and get Tevin Coleman, Jay Ajayii, or TJ Yeldon at RB in later rounds. If Gurley is at #27 I would take him regardless of who is available, and if DGB is there I think long and hard about it and weigh my options.
Thoughts?
