Cowboys on the clock
Taking a look at Dallas' upcoming first round pick in next week’s NFL draft is like trying to pick the powerball in the lottery. With not knowing who will be around when the 27 pick rolls around makes things even tougher. Dallas has made it clear that it plans to address the left tackle position, and USC's Charles Brown who some people have falling to this late in the draft, seem like he could be a natural fit here. Brown looks to slip because he is unpolished and most early teams cannot wait around for a project. Brown is a former TE with good feet and improving skills. With the Cowboys having one of the more talented offensive lines, it would not be a bad decision to see them draft a Brown and bring him along slowly, playing more of a back-up roll on an aging offensive lines. This might not be the exciting pick, but seems like a viable one.
Some discussion on where the Cowboys will go if Browns name is called before 27 leaves them with the exciting pick, in USC safety Taylor Mays. Mays is a physical specimen, with incredible size and speed. He has all the tools to become an instant star, which leaves people wondering why he could almost slip to the 2nd round. Mays had a low year in terms of production, which has lead to doubts about his pass coverage skills. If Brown is off the board it wouldn’t be farfetched to see the Cowboys taking risk on another safety with questionable pass coverage skills.
