Truthfully I can't foresee a realistic scenario where Dallas actually goes for a QB given that Romo can play for the next 3-4 yrs at a high level. I think they draft defense and possibly one of Ramsey or Bosa based on who's available. The top 5 players prior to the combine are Bosa, Ramsey, Tunsil and Buckner with potentially Wentz/Goff going top 5 to Cleveland. So, we may very well be stuck with who's left.

 

Romo will be 36 entering this year and is injury prone and when he went down it cost the Cowboys their season. I most defintly can see them drafting a QB. I can also see them trading with Tennessee.

In that case they'd prefer to draft a QB in a later round, they could get a Connor Cook in the 2nd for example and they'd be fine with him I think. This year's class of QB is just bad, it's not worth a 4th pick when you have 5 or 6 blue chip guys that you can't miss on.

This could be the only opportunity for Jerry to get a primo QB and his staff worked with Wentz at the Senior Bowl. Plus we're talking bout Jerry Jones lol. He wanted Manziel and his son talked him out of it plus a lot of teams need QB(Texans,Rams,Eagles and even maybe Saints) so pickins could be slim in the 2nd rd.

For what it's worth, Jerry declared he wasn't going to draft a QB. Will have to find the article though

I mentioned last week how there would be zero chance Ramsey falls to 6, now I am starting to think otherwise. Yes, Ramsey will have a stellar combine, but everyone is already aware of his freak athleticism. I think the Combine can help a guys like Buckner and Spence to increase their draft stock. I'd say a QB in the top 5 is a lock, along with Tunsil. So of the three remaining picks there is Ramsey, Bosa, Myles Jack, Spence and Buckner. Free agency will obviously play a large role, but with Denver defense dominating the season and especially the Super Bowl. Teams very well could work to build a dominating defensive front before addressing the secondary.

Treadwell

Spence

Ramsey

Bosa

Tunsil

Anyone of them would be a pick I'd be happy with but that's my order of preference.

It is looking more than likely that you really, really, really can't have Ramsey.

Everyone and their brother has us selecting Ronnie Stanley.

That may not be the worst outcome for us, long term.

I agree, think we need to grab a playmaker and that looks like a defensive player.

Huh? I'm confused. 

What are you confused about? I was agreeing that drafting Stanley would be a mistake and that we should grab a playmaker and more than likely that will be a defensive player because I don't believe there is an offensive player worth taking at 6.

The thing is, I do not view drafting Stanley as a mistake. Most likely no immediate impact, like with most Olinemen these days, but long term it should pay big dividends. He is very talented pass protector, needs to get stronger and become a factor in run blocking.

To me its down to 5 guys. If none of these guys are there ou trade down

1. Tunsil

2. Ramsey

3. Jack

4. Buckner

5. Bosa

The later of the 3 can be put in any order really. I just did it out of preference. If none of those guys are there then id trade down to the 10-12 range and hope someone like vh3, billings, spence, alexander, or treadwell are there. Im becoming more and more certain of this

See his reply above, but @allblackraven said essentially drafting Stanley wouldn't be bad move long-term, yet your reply implied that he said it would be a bad move when that's not the case.

Is there anything Stanley can do at the combine to impress that fans and be more deserving at the 6th overall pick?

He can bench press 225 50 times and run a sub 5 secs 40. I would be impressed! I'm sure he is a worthy pick, except the pick isn't sexy and he is unanimously not as good as Tunsil.

Yea, i meant more along the lines of what would make him a no-brainer pick. Odds are there's a guy that is the best player at their position and what would Ronnie Stanley have to do in order to be the more reasonable pick  being the 2nd OT off the board as opposed to Myles Jack being the LB. Stanley isnt a sexy pick but everyone would've loved if somehow Tunsil could've been our pick. I really hope Tunsil is the 1st pick cause I'd hate for the Cleveland game to be the reason we don't get him.

I don't think It's about it being a non sexy pick, it's just about His lack of push. In the run game he stands His ground and pivots with defenders rather than getting push, you just can't take an OL top 10 who can't knock a DT over and get to the second level, Stanley just really seems to lack that drive.

More negs with nothing to say LOL. This forum is getting over run with knuckleheads as of late. Make a counter-point or stop acting like a petulant child.

While it isn't me who's negging you, I wouldn't care too much about it. I think people do neg because they disagree with your post(s).

It's whatever man, no big deal. I'm just of the belief that if someone makes a well thought out post that you disagree with you owe them a post back explaining what you disagree with.

5 Trade Down/Spence

With the DT talent on the team and in the class, I'm not a big fan of Nkemdiche. I'd take Buckner, Robinson, Billings, and potentially Rankins over Nkdemdiche. As with Clowney, I frequently see athlete ability that should warrant game changer status, but Nkdemdiche is frustrating quiet most the time. Plus you have to worry about the character concerns and his brother.

Realistically, Tunsil and two quarterbacks will go before us for sure. Ramsey, Bosa, Jack, Buckner, or Stanley would likely tothe choice. I have ranked:

1. Ramsey

2. Jack

3. Bosa

4. Stanley

5. Buckner

6. Spence (I think he goes top 10-12 after the combine)
