1st round -- Jonathan Cooper, OG, UNC
We appear to be in win-now mode every year and with it a great possibility that Jason Garrett returns next year, I think he does everything within his power to get that accomplished, which would entail shoring up his roster's weak spots. One of those is the play of the Oline. I would like to get an OT here, but two things are working against this; Doug Free and the fact that this year's crop isn't very good. OG on the otherhand, have two 1st round prospects, Warmack and Cooper, who are being graded as the best to come along in awhile. Where we'll be selecting, mid-later 1st round, this would be a nice slot to take an OG at.
2nd round -- Ryan Nassib, QB, Syracuse
It's about time we started grooming the next QB to take over once Romo calls it quits. A real prospect. It depends on the length of the new extension Romo is most certainly to receive, but by the time Nassib's rookie deal is up, we will have a determination on where the future of the QB position is headed as Romo will be around 38 years old then. Nassib is this year's Andy Dalton, but unlike Dalton, he needs some work on his throwing mechanics. He has the arm strength to make all the throws though and while not a great athlete, he is quite good at throwing on the run.
3rd round -- Trevardo Williams, DE, Connecticut
Trevardo Williams is a poor man's Elvis Dummervil. While I say poor man's, I mean he probably will never get you 17.5 sacks in a season, but nonetheless this is a fine pass-rushing specimen. He averaged over a sack a game in 2011; only him and Whitney Mercilus did so that year, and almost did so again this year with 11.5. He is reputed to run a 4.45. His height may be a detriment, but on tape he certainly appears to have long enough arms, and he is quite strong. At times he shows the ability to dip around the edge of the OT while maintaining his speed, but he is not natural enough doing it. I think Eberflus can iron that part of his game out and if he does, watch out.
4th round -- Duke Williams, S, Nevada
Permanent fixture in my mocks, Duke Williams, is back again. The physical and quick closing deep safety that we've so desperately lacked.
5th round -- Johnny Adams, CB, Michigan State
An exciting athlete for the position, Johnny Adams is one of the more dangerous cornerbacks available in the draft. At Michigan State, he was kept on an island in man coverage often, though some think he's better suited for a zone scheme. Watching him on tape, he has a real feel for where the ball is going and does a great job anticipating and jumping on routes in which he is a threat to take it to the house everytime. What I like most about his game, is even though he is wiry, he loves to come up and hit you; is used on a lot of corner blitzes. He's going to be what we thought Mike Jenkins would be for us this year.
6th round -- Marquess Wilson, WR, Washington State
Marquess burst on the scene as a Freshman All-American and continued it with a phenomenal Sophomore campaign in 2011. He is one of the smoothest WRs I have seen with the ability to go up and snatch the ball out of the air in any position. Gentle Garrett may have found his mark here as Wilson quit the WSU football program citing abuses by Head Coach Mike Leach. It's quite clear that Miles is on this team to stay, and really is only a slot WR at this point, so the addition of Marquess gives us two wideouts on the edge that Romo can trust to get downfield and come down with any ball that he throws.
