Would the Cowboys go DT in round 1 or 2?

[Midswat]

Could you see the Cowboys going defensive tackle in the first round or second round? And if so, which DT would you be most interested in?

At 14 he'd be a definite reach, and I'm not sure he'll be there when we pick in the 2nd, but I like what I've read about Jerel Worthy at Michigan State. Smart kid, loves football, and has played against top notch competition in the Big Ten.

If he didn't go To LSU I'd consider Michael brockers our #1 sleeper. And in our top 3 mist likely picks.

He's the perfect long armed, lean, big time athlete for our D-line

6'6", 310 and if you look At his body you can tell hes going to get much bigger

He's someone that is on a lot of risers list.

I'd be worried about drafting a guy in the first based on more potential than actual production though.

If his motor checked out I wouldn't worry. A guy like that who's only going to get bigger should be a plug and play for years.

Again, barring motor.

The chiefs took Tyson Jackson at 5 and I think we all know how that worked out

 

[Midswat]

Motor has to be a concern with any DT.

It's rare you find a 320 lb man with a great work ethic.

Tyson Jackson is a name you mention. Marcus Spears is another LSU Dlineman who by all accounts has underachieved. Coincidence or cause for concern (a la UF QB's, PSU runningbacks, etc)?

Worthy isnt a fit in a 3-4 scheme..cant play the nose

Why not?

I think Worthy would play DE in a 3-4.

Worthy 6'3" 310

Kenyon Coleman 6'5" 306
Sean Lissemore 6'4" 310

Lets get Poe from Memphis and finally plug a talented 350 pound nose tackle into the front seven. Try running around that.

I'd be all for trading back a couple spots, picking up an extra high pick, and drafting Poe. He seems like the only very good NT prospect in the draft. Could mean everything to our D next year.
