KirtFalcon Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 It's going to be a boring 1st day for Cowboy fans! Draft 2009 Pick Rd 2, Pick 19 (51) Rd 3, Pick 5 (69) Rd 4, Pick 1 (101) Rd 4, Pick 17 (117) Rd 5, Pick 20 (156) Rd 5, Pick 30 (166) Rd 5, Pick 36 (172) Rd 6, Pick 24 (197) Rd 6, Pick 35 (208) Rd 7, Pick 1 (210) Rd 7, Pick 18 (227) The Cowboys can stock up on more marginal\mediocre players the 2nd day ... as usual!!!! :w00t:
spacegolfer Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 Looks like you need to pay attention to what this coaching staff has done in the draft here. They've hit very well on their drafted players. As usual people spouting off unsubstantiated knowledge of a situation.

The Cowboys can stock up on more marginal\mediocre players the 2nd day ... as usual!!!! :w00t: You know, the Cowboys traded into the first round last year. We could be surprised, although I'm not sure if the talent at the bottom of the 1st this year would warrant it (unless a prime linebacker fell late or something). You never know. If the Cowboys keep drafting second day mediocre players like Scandrick, Canty, Watkins, James, Crayton, Witten, Ratliff, Burnett, Barber, Choice, Free, and Anderson, I'll keep taking them.

eeaggie Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 The Cowboys don't need anymore star players, they just need more role players who can play special teams so I am okay with them having a lot of second day picks.
CrankThatCrabtree Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 according to Kiper's Mock draft the cowboys are going to take Ramses barden from Cal Poly, he is a WR who is an athletic freak, I really hope this comes true because he has the potential to be a star
badblackcat Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 What round is Kiper saying Barden will go in? Barden may be a good choice for a 6th-7th rounder, but I wouldn't take a guy that's going to have to work on the practice squad a few years before then. He's going to have to learn to be a wideout. He wouldn't bring any upside for playing time immediately. He comes from a double wing offense and can't play special teams.
CrankThatCrabtree Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 2nd round, and I don't see how the offense he played in matters because look at these stats http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=171216 Kid is a beast
ThaDeisel Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 yeah i heard about him, it seems like he's gonna be a steal for anyone who takes him late!
badblackcat Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Barden would be an interesting grab mid-draft, there's no doubt about that. He's a jump-ball receiver, and there aren't going to be guys even in the NFL that are going to be able to outjump him. Barden is going to come with a learning curve, though. His stats are all from playing marginal competition. He has to build up to his speed and may need time adjusting to press coverage. He's not a good route runner. He gets the alligator arms when in traffic. He's intriguing to me, if he can be had in the 4th or lower. I certainly would never use a 2nd round pick on him, and I hope the Cowboys won't as well.
CrankThatCrabtree Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 yeah it would probably behoove the boys to take a more polished receiver, but the prospect of getting that guy is exciting.... Kiper said he would get drafted by the Cowboys in his Mock Draft, I found it interesting, he could be the next T.O.... (in that he went to a 1-AA school, not attitude)
BGR Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 What the NFL, as a whole, doesn't need is another T.O. attitude. I would love to see the "It's all about me" WR become extinct. T.O. and Plexico Burress have been issued pink slips and are on their last leg of NFL chances. Burress may have already used all of his. Ocho Cinco needs to be next, I can't understand why the Bungals continue to hold on to this guy.

Sure, guys like Burress and Owens may be on their last chances, but guys like Boldin and Fitzgerald are being hyped to the roof, Percy Harvin had ESPN singing his praises until not so long ago, and guys Ocho Cinco will still find a job somewhere.
Stoney Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 defense help first, o- linemen, then wr, i think with our rb's we'll run the ball more. help the whole team out by controlling the clock.

The thing about Fitzgerald and some other top WRs is they seem to be for the team not just for their individual stats. Not sure about Boldin and his attitude. T.O. and Chad Johnson are unfortunately probably always going to have a team that will take a chance on them until their skills decline badly. Hopefully with recent issues being handled the way they have been, some of these guys will keep their "me first" attitude in check and put the team first. If it doesn't become extinct maybe it will become an endangered species. As far as the draft... take the best player available at 51. Without any seriously glaring needs, that would be the best course of action in my mind.
badblackcat Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Fitzgerald isn't for the team to any extent that would be above average compared to others. He's been in trouble with the law and has been holding his team hostage for a big payday until they got rolling in the playoffs. When the camera was on, Fitz and the Cards talked a better game than they had played up to that point. His play is fine, but he wasn't going to change his pay day to keep Boldin either until the Cards were SB bound. As for Boldin, he wants more money and can't get it in Arizona, so he's going to try anything to get out. Same thing has Jason Peters, who turned down every offer Buffalo threw at him this past year.
Baron Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 Jerry won't take a WR in round 2 because it would be an indictment of the Roy Williams trade. That's unfortunate because the 2nd round seems to be where a lot of WR talent will go off the board. Look for names like: William Beatty OT UConn Michael Johnson DE Ga Tech Sean Smith S Utah Andrew Levitre OG Ore St Ron Brace DT BC Willaim Moore S Mizz Jarron Gilbert DT SJ St

Look for names like: William Beatty OT UConn Michael Johnson DE Ga Tech Sean Smith S Utah Andrew Levitre OG Ore St Ron Brace DT BC Willaim Moore S Mizz Jarron Gilbert DT SJ St I'm all for Sean Smith. A press-bail corner big enough to use on tight ends so DWare won't have to do it. We need that more than we even need another nosetackle.

TxRangers2023 Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 i had a feeling this could be a boring day for Cowboy fans
cool34 Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 Jerry is adding up those late picks to parlay them for Anquan Bolden
CrankThatCrabtree Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 ZZZzzz....I'm officially a Texans fan. would you have rather the cowboys take a player they weren't that high on just for the sake of your entertainment?
KirtFalcon Posted April 26, 2009 Author Posted April 26, 2009 How 'bout them Cowboys? :w00t: Jones may try and trade down even further ... to the third day to get some real sleepers!!! They would fit right in with the Wade Phillips system. Did anyone log onto the "live" Cowboy's War Room during the draft? Wade looked like he was asleep most of the time starring forward into space while the Jones boys did all the scheming!!! :w00t:
Rhino2K Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 Wade looked like he was asleep most of the time starring forward into space... He looks that way on the sidelines most of the time too.
