2025 Cowboy Draft

[UK Cowboy]

that cant be true.
but if it is, we should have already made the trade!

When i heard that I said the same thing. That kid would be PERFECT across from Lamb. Speed for days

I think the way they have gone about the offseason, they have to get a RB in the first two rounds.
I have heard Jamison Williams from Detroit can be had for a 3rd rounder. There won't be any WR on the board nearly as good as him by round 3, I would jump on that.

Not me. I would for a 4th if we had one, but not a 3rd. He is already in the last year of his contract. Next year he costs you either $15M or a new deal. I’d rather draft one or just sign one.

I would jump on it because he is only 24 years old and coming off another great year. I don't mind paying really good players what they are worth, especially really good young guys.
That said, I get what you're saying. Problem is, the WR's drop off much faster this year than last. Anything after round 2 is a shot in the dark. It's why we are really a 3-4 year rebuild IMO. 3-4 really good drafts. We need to get back to drafting well

well the devil would be in the details. If we were trading I assume we would have talked to him about extensions (or atleast we should) He started his career injured, so if we signed him for less than top dollar, which could be very likely if done now. You would have two #1's on the field. For #1 & #2 salaries. He will be a #1 for some team easily. If the guy is asking for the moon. then obviously dont make the trade. We are already paying CeeDee.
Yes if we could get a High end #2 in the draft that is easily the most advantageous. But also takes away a much needed pick, that could have been more useful elsewhere. unless you think we will land our #2 with a late pick.
When it comes to the draft pick used. I would have no problem using a 3rd to land that talent. That part is a no brainer. I wouldnt ruin the deal fighting to make it a 4th. Also as you know we will just give a 4th for a bathtub, so I just always assume we dont have a 4th LOL.

If he was coming off “another great year” I’d agree. But Look at his first two years. listen I like the guy and made a lot of money on him on prop bets last year because I knew he’d blow out his yardage over/unders if he played even 14 games, but he has not been consistent. I do love the talent though even though I wonder about his fit here. We just haven’t been able to really use elite speed guys. Not sure if that has been the offense or the QB but it just hasn’t meshed.

Pearce is rumored to have character issues (compared to Gregory) and was arrested a little over a year ago. So which is it? You can’t trust anything you hear or read about this team.

Personally I’m of the belief that until you get some of these guys into your building you don’t really know what they are like. I’d hate to have my kids hear about some of what I did in College…

I think the fit is just what we need. 17.3 yards per catch, the big play threat we need. People are projecting Golden here for a 1st, if Golden pans out, he would be Jameson. You really wouldn't give up a 3rd for him?

That's kind of the sad reality of where we are right now. We really can't miss. I think the biggest NEED we have(of many) is RB1, so if the draft is need, Hampton is fine at 12. 2nd biggest need is WR2 so McMillian or Golden are fine. Third IMO is CB so Johnson or Barron would be good. NT is 4th, Grant wouod be a good pick. 5th would be LT/RG so Josh Simmons or Booker would work. We need an edge, so Walker works. It's going to be really hard for them to make a pick where I throw something at the TV, but i never underestimate Jerry and Stephens ability to do just that

I think the biggest need is OL. If your RB is constantly met in the backfield there is only so much you can do. Dak can't do shit with pressure, needs help protecting his ass. Lamb is fucking awesome and a warrior but all his balls will be short throws and RAC if dak has no time.

Second biggest need, DT. We get chewed up and spit out from that standpoint. Eagles DOMINATE us in the trenches. And they have saquan. We will never get past them if can't overcome their running game.

RB and WR are candy. I want a steak dinner. Winning SB talk is fun but we can't get there when we are finishing 2nd in the division. Right now skinz have that locked up it seems.

Just my opinion on the state of needs.

I don't see Detroit parting with him. They have a two headed monster here and it is working out very well and if they didn't get the injury bug, more like a pandemic for them, would have walked though the playoffs.

I thought the flute story was well known...
