2010 and 2011 have been good drafts. What are you talking about?

Looking at the War Room... It's like Stephen Jones and Jason Garrett don't give a damn about who they pick. Like they place all their trust in their scouts. This pick was MOST definitely a Tom Ciskowski pick. If these picks fail, we need to get rid of Ciskowski.

They Cowboys always do well when they make picks on players who's names are familiar. Everyone they take and we scratch our heads on... they suck.

[E-Man]

With Markelle Martin and Iloka out there I would have chosen them. This is looking a bit like 2009, but back then I was saying wait and see because you never know. I'm sticking to that mantra, but it's feeling like there are too many projects being picked. I do like Wilber after reading that he's played both 4-3 and 3-4, and he played on both the line and 'backer corps in both. His versatility could be an asset if they cultivate it, so that's a little exciting.

Claiborne is a stud, Crawford and Wilbur are good, and the jury is out on this guy Johnson. Relax. This kid could become a pro-bowler. No one knows anything on draft day.

Exactly my point.

[CDCB14]

Jimmy Robinson is talking in the war room. Targeting a WR?

[D-Unit]

Panthers just took Josh Norman. :(

...and they are KILLIN' this draft. Kuechly, Silatolu, Alexander, Norman

The NFC East all had good drafts. I think Philly had the best draft so far. Typical Philly. They do it every year.

The East is such a tough division.

It's ok, Vick is still their QB.

Cowboys selected Mo Claiborne and forgot about the rest of the draft.

They were all extremly happy with the pick though.(war room cam) Im hoping Ryan had a major say as well.

Rob Ryan has NO CLUE what went on at Eastern Washington.

I don't care, he isn't winning a super bowl. Besides, anyone could kill our defense last year.

Anyway, still plenty of quality CB's on the board, but I doubt we go DB again.

I have no problem with not taking martin or iloka. Those are names from big name programs but their more likely to be career special teamers.

martin is like sensabaugh good athlete but no awareness or instincts plus he has injury. He looks like a centerfielder but he was known in college as in the box thumper, I'm glad the cowboys didn't draft him. I'd rather see a more instinctive player at safety than the better overall athlete.

Iloka has rare size but his it also hurts him. He really long legged and he doesn't have the movement skills to matchup with wr's in a heavy man scheme. I do like his length but he reminds of pat Watkins who never really to translate his rare body type into succes in he NFL.

I don't know anything about matt Johnson but I'm not disaapointed in passing over iloka and Martin

If we don't draft a CB in the 5th or 6th then I would assume Jenkins will be here next year

I absolutely HATE that they got my boy Brandon Boykin.

NFLN talking about Josh Norman... makes me sick to my stomach. I wanted him badly.

Gotta agree with that. Iloka and Martin suck, imo.
