Tomorrow will be the meat. This is where we find out just how high these quarterbacks will go.

NFL.com is reporting that Jaylon Smith's knee injury will cause him to miss the entire 2016 season. Another reason to stay away from these wounded linebackers.
Also, Alex Collins ran a 4.6 and struggled to catch passes. He might fall to the middle rounds.

It will be interesting to see where smith goes. If he's still there in the third, do you take him knowing you will get nothing in 2016?

Jaylon's medicals came back worse than people expected...mocks had him as a potential top 10 heading into combine but now it's really iffy. Read someone compare his road back to Lattimore which is pretty sad to hear.
Luckily for him he'll be able to cash in a 5 mill insurance policy and then probably go to a good team who can afford to stash him.

I'd use one of my 4th Round picks, but not a top three pick. History shows the backers with knee issues in college will have knee issues in the pros.

Watching the combine. Evaluating qb's while they make one throw and then go stand in line and wait for 15 other qb's to take their turn is moronic.

Tony Romo leaning toward having plate inserted to strengthen collarbone https://t.co/opdGEh0qLT
Jerry Jones disappointed in Randy Gregory, but was aware of situation they were facing when drafted him, "it's embarrassing for everybody."
Jerry Jones says Cowboys bus has been busy this week talking to agents of players about to become free agents
Jerry Jones: There's no angst on our part in regards to what Romo decides to do w/ collarbone. Jones still expects Romo to QB 4-5 more years
Jerry Jones: I think Tony Romo will be our quarterback for the next 4-5 years and we'll operate accordingly
Jerry Jones felt very good about last year's roster on paper. Had some surprising circumstances (Romo/Dez injuries). No plans of rebuilding
Jerry Jones said he doesn't know yet if there's a QB in this draft worthy of the fourth overall pick
Jerry Jones: There's no question in my mind, Kellen Moore can win games in the NFL
Jerry Jones is still completely behind Jason Garrett. Says he's built for these situations. "Nobody is rooting for him more than I am."
Jerry Jones very confident they can get RB to go along with McFadden. Finding a good RB option won't be nearly as tough as upgrading defense
Jerry Jones "very, very" sad to see what has happened with Joseph Randle
Rolando McClain recently called a Cowboys coach asking if there was anything organization could do to help Joseph Randle
Jerry Jones made it clear that he wants Rolando McClain back
Jerry Jones says Cowboys have plenty of cap room but don't expect team to break the bank by signing big name free agent
Jerry Jones on if he wants Rolando McClain back: "Yes. I say yes. That's not a good competitive thing but I do want him back."
Jerry Jones on Brandon Carr: "He's certainly a player that the big issue here is the price. He's a good player. It's the price."
Jerry Jones: Not realistic to think we can spend big in free agency. Have to be responsible to "not blow things out for us in years to come"
Jerry Jones: "I don't know that we'll ever be any better under the cap than we are right now and I don't expect to be."
Jerry Jones: We don't need to clean up cap like when we cut DeMarcus Ware. "Congratulations to him, by the way. He won. I'm proud for him."
Jerry Jones on if the Cowboys would try to bring in a big name free agent running back: "Don't rule it out, but that's hard to see."
Jerry Jones on Randle: "I know of nothing that in any way involves him sports betting on anything to do with football, anything like that."

The problem with drafting Smith is that the Cowboys draft picks are really high in each round (good kind of problem). They can get 3 guys who can come in and have upgraded impacts on opening day.
That said, I think some team will take a chance on him late in the 2nd still. If he's there for the Cowboys at the 3rd pick, I just don't think they can afford to have a guy sit out a full year at this time. Now if somehow he plummets to the 4th, then I'd take that risk on him.
quote:
The hope should be that Jerry is being overly bullish on Romo to play poker with other teams who might feel the need to trade up above Dallas to take Wentz or Goff.
Because the alternative is that he's more insane than most think. Which is saying something.
quote:Was actually thinking this earlier today. Not only just DLine, but interior DLine would kind of be fascinating and might be a good formula as long as they do indeed sign serious help at DE, LB, and DB.
I think I'd go D-Line twice in the top 3 rounds.

I do not believe this guy is a top 5 talent. Good player, but not at #4.
And I gotta say, I'm not sure buckner is the right choice there either. He clearly looks like a 3-4 DE to me. Not the best fit in a 4-3.
quote:
Wow. That whistling you hear is Bosa's stock in a freefall.
quote:I would be okay w that plan w one caveat I like Ramsey if he's there.
I'll be happy with Goff or Jack at 4. If one of those 2 aren't there I hope we trade down and take Elliot.
quote:
What I like about elliot is the x factor of our oline. McFadden had a good year, but you put an elite back behind that line and our offense could take off. If we are gonna reject the qbs we need to scare defenses off Romo as much as possible with a lethal run and screen game.
But we are still gonna need lots of help on D. Fingers crossed Scandrick comes back 100% cause that will be1 impact player we didn't have last year.
