It matters to me that we DO talk about players. After all, this is a discussion board. Talk about prospects! I haven't a clue about anyone. I'd be Al Davis lol. Who's fastest?!? Haha

I'm not an expert either, however GB is screaming for an elite CB. The signing of House, is to me, like resigning a veteran as a reward for past performance. IMO, that past performance did not merit a contract. I do hope that he proves me wrong.

Were I TT, I would trade a 1st and a 5th in the 2017 Draft and a 6th in the 2018 Draft to move up in the 2017 Draft. Then with a top 5 pick, I would choose:

Marshon Lattimore - CB - Ohio State - 6 feet tall @ 193 pounds.

However Ted Thompson appears to have no thoughtfulness nor imagination and will probably take a goalie from the Northern Michigan Wildcats hockey team that is 6 feet tall 178 pounds with the 29th pick in the draft because he his a quick twitch guy that has a nice change of direction and nice hips and try to turn him into a cornerback.

If you are going to look at NCAA players why not look at the best?

Myles Garrett DE Texas A&M Jr 6-4 272
Solomon Thomas DE Stanford So 6-3 273

They will most likely be long gone by 29.

I'll post my board in maybe 2-3 weeks.

I was also gonna do a rundown of the roster, position by position and assess needs.

To me, the needs are: OLB, CB, RB, G.

Only the top two are really glaring. I'd rather get two good OLBs and a CB than two CBs and an OLB.

Trade our 1st and 3rd this year plus our 1st next year to move up to #4 and draft Fournette. Draft best CB available in the 2nd. Sign Zach Brown.

I'm not sure about exact players. I see so much talk about CB, but you could put Woodson in his prime and Revis in his prime, yet if you can't get pressure on the QB, it wouldn't matter. I want to see another interior pass rusher to pair with Daniels. Doing so makes it easier for Clay and Perry on the edge and also makes the secondary better by default if they don't have to cover more than 3 seconds.

Caleb Brantley, Makik McDowell, Taco Charlton, Soloman Thomas

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

TJ Watt hype should be tempered a bit. He's only played defense for a season an half and didn't really come on strong until a portion way through last season. Just because he's a "Watt", doesn't mean he's going to be a wrecking ball like his brother.

3rd round talent!!

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
