Since the 2014 season is over for them figured I would start a 2015 thread.

Question: I know the draft is months away, but the only positions that I would draft for are: Defensive End, Defensive Tackle, Cornerback and Safety, in that order. No other positions … agree?

Bob Sturm: For me, DE, Safety, and then best difference maker regardless of position. LB, CB, DT, RB, or even QB. I now have a good foundation and need to keep adding difference makers. I am planning a thorough review of the prospects starting immediately.

Looks like they are getting the coaching staff signed to new contracts. I think it would have been a disaster if they had let Marinelli get away.

Also speculation for drafting needs has begun.

Thanks for getting this going. Yep nailing down Marinelli was good.

So did you see that they let DeMarco Murray go to the Eagles and signed McFadden to take his place?

Also seen Greg Hardy is negotiating with an "unknown" team for his services, wonder if it's with the Cowboys since they could use someone like him and might be willing to take a chance on him?

This is who they signed since they didn't want to spend the money on Murray.

Since his cap hit is only $2.5 million they just might try to find another D lineman via free agency, like BJ Raji maybe...

And since they signed Hardy this would let them draft a RB in the 1st round if a good one (like Todd Gurley) fell to them at 27. But I still think they should draft "D" players the first 2 rounds and then look for a RB in 3 or 4.

No I didn't read it but can guess the gist of it from the wording. People are blasting Garrett for saying he wanted players of good character and those whining think Hardy doesn't have good character. They also think this was Jerry's doing and that Garrett should have stood up to him and told him he didn't want Hardy. These same people are highly pissed they "DIDN'T" overpay to keep Murray and so think this signing was all a big mistake.

That about cover it?

Since they picked up Hardy the need for a DL isn't as great I think they will draft a corner in the 1st if a good one is available.

I think they are going to try to get Bryce Petty (Baylor QB) in the draft this year, he's ranked 91 and the boys draft at 91 (3rd round). On the other hand they might go after Petty in the 2nd round (just to ensure they get him) since there a bunch of RBs available in the 3rd (which they need also).

After that they will draft a PK/KR and a bunch of the best defenders available, in which order well I have no clue.

(Moved this from the Tebow thread to here).

CB 1st round - Check... Byron Jones

2nd round - Latest I have seen is Mike Mayock (who is usually pretty accurate) has Petty up to 68 (from 91) and Dallas has the 60 spot, so if they are gonna take him it will be in the 2nd now. They could trade back a couple of spots to get an extra pick and still get Petty. On the other hand there are a couple of Defensive Linemen right around the 60 pick so they might go there instead.

3rd round - I still think they will go RB here cause so many are available BTA there are some good LBs available too so that could be a toss up.

Nice move on Jones.

I'm hearing another defensive pick in second round. Jerrah was quoted as saying he is banking on Romo being around another 5 years. That's insane. We shall see tomorrow night.

What choice does he have considering Romo's contract has 5 years to go on it. $1M this year, 8.5M in 2016, 14M in 2017, 19.5M in 2018 and 20.5M in 2019.

It would be nice to see a vet at his age be able to play out his contract and actually earn the money he's being paid. Most of them are cut with a couple of years left and the team ends up having to absorb all that dead cap money.

But I'm like you I have my doubts that he will get past 2017, that will leave 40M in dead cap money... Not good...

Round two we went for more off field risk. Kid can't pass pot screening. Maybe he should have been drafted by Denver. The stuff is legal there.

High end OT in the third round. Guess they want to make the Off line that much more impregnable:)

Have to read the article why they did not grab a RB in the third round.

Looks like Hardy's long suspension did change their draft strategy after all, just like you suggested yesterday and it didn't surprise me either. But I would have never thought Gregory would have slipped that far (close to 50 slots) BTA maybe some of the other owners are learning from past mistakes. Speaking of past mistakes has Jerry learned from his and is this gonna be another one?? They do seem to be better at taking the best player available. And they do seem to be better with problem children take Dez for example.

You do know why they took the chance on Gregory, they think he was the best pass rusher available in the draft. Something they need very badly. Guess we'll see.

Round 2 - After you said they were going to go for a DE or DL on the 2nd I expected them to take Danielle Hunter, but he didn't go until the Vikings round 3 pick 24. (Slipped almost a full round from where he was projected).

Round 3 - I figured if they were gonna make a run at Petty it would be here if they were serious about getting a good young'un for down the road, cause he was supposed to go right at 91 and they were 91. I figured if that was all a bunch of crap (smokescreen) they would go for another DL, LB or RB not another OL. But since OL Jeremy Parnell signed with the Jaguars in the off season I knew they had to address the position just didn't think it would be there.

From what I'm reading about Green he seems to be able to play both tackle positions (which is invaluable) so I can see why they snagged him. He'll eventually take Free's RT job (Free had foot surgery and won't be ready until July) and can backup the LT position if Smith gets hurt.

Round 4 - So since I've been wrong on just about everything so far I wonder what this will bring? Maybe they'll do something really idiotic and draft a punter?? :)

There are still some good RBs available (some have slipped, BTA maybe Jerry wasn't bluffing he's not going to draft another RB) Petty is still out there, they still need another LB or 2, another WR, maybe another CB if they decide to cut Carr after 1 June.

Oh well guess we'll see what happens.

good ,they got the O lineman they needed in the 1st pick . They moved up to the #1 pick in the 2nd round to pick a Dback to replace Rolle (cost them 3 later picks ) . They then went for depth on their remaining picks ,including an insurance slot receiver in case Victor Cruz is not ready to start the season.

Hmmm...Tom, are you a Jints fan?

They need OLs and durable RBs. Heard they rolled the dice on a "red flag" receiver. A Plaxico-type who IF he stays out of jail might be a good pick.
