Prince Amakumara to visit next week, still in play for ninth pick

[sbk92]

Nebraska cornerback Prince Amakumara will visit the Cowboys headquarters next week, according to his agent Todd France. Although the Cowboys appear to be leaning toward picking an offensive tackle or trading down with the ninth overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, Amakumara remains one of the options for the Cowboys. According to a Cowboys source, the team likes what they have seen so far from Amakumara and will consider. However there is also no question the team is intrigued with USC tackle Tyron Smith, who has the potential to be a ten-year starter at left tackle. Most mock drafts have the Cowboys picking Smith barring a trade down.

This is smart by us.

Detroit is speculated as wanting a corner. I could see them trying to trade up from 13.
