JFYI NFLDraftCountdown has Boykin on their overrated list.

Why have Cowboy fans come attached to this player?



Not attatched. He's a good corner and great returner. He'd be in our dime in my scenario

Although I fear he's mire Javier arenas than Patrick Peterson as a defender.

So you want to do the special team draft all over again, cmd?

You're not supposed to come out of the 1st 3 rounds with a slot Cb.

The one thing we did not address in the 2009 special teams draft was a return man.

No, I want OL, OLB, FS, CB, and a return man out of this draft. Boykin solves 2 of those.

We still targeted special teams high in the draft that year.

We need more than a slot CB. In fact, we already have the perfect candidate for that role. Orlando Scandrick.

And Boykin is no Devin Hester as a returner.

Yup, get Nicks draft either DeCastro or Konz.

Konz still may be there in the 20's, so maybe we make a trade if the player we want isn't there at 14.

Take that extra pick and go all defense the rest of the draft. Any combo of Nicks, DeCastro or Konz. Getting all three would be greatness. Very doubtful though.

Nicks and Decastro...constant theme this offseason.

Watch we end up starting Arkin and Nagy and draft Dennard lol

I'm still hesitant to pull the trigger on a jag FS like Rahim Moore. We could just rent a jag for a year like Reggie Nelson until a stud FS shakes loose Like Reid or Honey Badger

I wouldn't mind adding Zeitler in the second either. He's going to be very good as well.

Ayuh. Watch us go second or third tier free agents too. It's just what we do.

Which is why I'm not holding my breath on this. I can see both Grubbs and Nicks at least getting franchised and fucking all our dreams up. They are both critical to what they want to do on their respective teams.

Then Jerry panicks and signs Holland to a 3 yr extension. While we draft a taller 2010 Mike Jenkins scrub (Kirkpatrick)

Just like we can work the cap system so can they. I bet Brees tells the Saints to sign Nicks even if he takes a paycut.

Irvin and merciless could be had after we take Decastro

Finnegan
Nicks
1. Decastro
2. Merciless
3. Boykin
4. And of course the prerequisite Ladarius green


You're talking Whitney Mercilus of Illinois correct? I'm through. I have yet to find any mock draft that has Mercilius falling out of the 1st round, and if by remote chance it happens, doubtful he falls to the 14th pick in the 2nd round. And I'm with Bob on Boykin. Wasted pick. If anything we should use that 3rd rounder on a safety Robert Lester or Markelle Martin.

Merciless will be taken closer to 45 than 14. I am not guessing.

I'm going to throw a name out there that I hope slips into the second round at our pick. Chase Minnifield. Another is Stephon Gilmore. I'd really want us to draft one of those as long as we get a guy like DeCastro, Upshaw or Konz.

If we don't go corner in the second I like Zeitler as an option. That's of course if we draft Upshaw or one of the top 25 corners in the first round.

Chase Minnifield would work for me in the 2nd. Although since it's so early in the process, he could probably be had in the 3rd round by the time the draft rolls around.

Yeah, it's still early but I don't think he makes it past the second round. If he did he'd be drafted at the top of the 3rd.

He's projected to go in the 1st round.
