Ok...

Going into the draft, everyone knew Dallas needed a Saftey to replace Hamlin and some depth on the OLine.

Everyone seems to forget that Hamlin was out several games last season and Alan Ball did a good job filling in.

We also seem to forget that Doug Free is moving to Left Tackle.

So...the Boys did the right thing:

Draft the best available player on their board.

Dez Bryant is that man.

Sliding so far in the draft and then going to Dallas at 24 was brilliant.

All Dallas had to give up was their Round 3 in exchange for the Pats Round 4, meaning they moved up 4 spots in Round 1 and down 29 from 3 to 4.

Dez Bryant is going to be sick.

He IMMEDIATELY steps in as our KR/PR guy.

He also can and will challenge Roy Williams and Patrick Crayton for playing time in either the slot or on the outside.

The great thing about him at WR is that we had a record year passing-wise WITHOUT Dez...add him and it makes us that much better!

With so much depth in this draft, we can still get our Saftey and Tackle in the latter rounds.


Good move Big D.
