This mock it's the msot real best case scenario don't think it will hapen that well Mock

1-22-22 Dallas Cowboys from Cleveland Browns -- Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, CB, Tennessee State
With a roster stocked with quality players at nearly every position, Dallas can let the draft come to them. San Diego was in much the same position two years ago when they took a flier on Antonio Cromartie and that pick paid off in spades, as Cromartie is the most dominant young corner in the league. Rodgers-Cromartie doesn't have the Florida State pedigree, but he has the same combination of size, speed and athleticism. He was a man among boys at the Senior Bowl, and he followed that up with a stellar combine that cemented him as a first-round prospect and arguably the best cornerback in the draft. Rodgers-Cromartie won't be ready to start right away, but with Terrence Newman and Anthony Henry on board, the Cowboys don't need him to. This is a bit of a boom-or-bust pick, but it's one Dallas can afford to make with another first rounder in their pocket.

1-28-28 Dallas Cowboys -- Devin Thomas, WR, Michigan State

While Terrell Owens is still performing at a high level, he's no spring chicken anymore, and Dallas would do well by adding a potential No. 1 receiver to groom behind him. Thomas, at 6-2 and 225, compares favorably to Dwayne Bowe, who went right around this spot last year and turned in the top performance of any a rookie receiver. The risk is that Thomas only played one season of Division I-A ball and that he is an unpolished route runner, but he displayed terrific hands at Michigan State, as well as a rare ability to pick up yardage after the catch. Thomas is also an excellent return man, and he'll immediately upgrade Dallas' special teams. DeSean Jackson was also a consideration in this spot, but ultimately size won out.

2-30-61 Dallas Cowboys -- Chris Johnson, RB, East Carolina

4.24 in the 40-yard dash at the Combine. Will he play that fast? Probably not, but he deserves credit for coming to the draft process prepared. As a player, he complements Marion Barber as a guy who can return kicks, catch the ball out of the backfield (he was a wide receiver off-and-on in college), and serve as a scatback. If he could become a better blocker, he'd be a real terror.

funny thing I saw inthsi mock about detroits pick

1-15-15 Detroit Lions — Leodis McKelvin, CB, Troy

My conversation with Matt Millen:

B: “Wow Matt, this is a dream scenario for us. We had one of the worst secondaries in football last year and the top two cornerbacks are still on the board!”
M: [playing with G.I. Joe’s] “No, Rusty. _I’m_ the manliest man in our squadron!”
B: “Um, Matt, it’s our turn to pick.”
M: “What?” [glances back at G.I. Joes and makes squashing noises]
B: “Matt, it’s our turn to pick in the NFL Draft.”
M: “Oh! OK! We pick Darren McFadden.” [points to picture of Darren McFadden on the cover of The Sporting News] “Our scouts said he’s the best player out there.” [goes back to G.I. Joes] “Just like our scouts saw Charlie hanging out in the ditches over by the popcorn machine!”
B: [grabs Matt’s arm and sits him back down] “Matt, we can’t pick Darren McFadden. We won too many games to be able to pick whoever we want. He’s already been selected by the Jets.”
M: “We’ll send fighter je-”
B: [looks at Matt sternly]
M: “…OK. Let’s trade Roy Williams for Darren McDonald’s.”
B: “Matt, it’s McFadden, and we can’t trade Roy Williams for McFadden. He’s our best player and, besides, the Jets don’t want to deal McFadden.”
M: [is across the room shoving G.I. Joe’s into the microwave, screaming] “Go! Go! Go Rusty, go!”
B: “NOT AGAIN MATT!” [unplugs microwave] “Last time you did that, this place smelled like rubber for weeks.”
M: [obliviously shoves army men into microwave and hits “go” button and jumps around gleefully yelling] “CHAR-LIE! CHAR-LIE!”
B: [checks clock - three minutes]
M: “Can we take Darren Whopper now?”
B: [sighs] “Oh, you want a whopper?!”
M: “Whopper with royale!”
B: “We shouldn’t have shown you Pulp Fiction. You were too young.”
M: “Mother****** mother****** Jesus!”
B: “OK Matt. How about this. I do a little business here and then we’ll go to Burger Ki-”
M: “NO McFADDEN’S! McFADDEN’S McFADDEN’S McFADDEN’S!”
B: [can’t believe he’s going to have to go to McDonald’s, take burgers out of their wrappers, go to Burger King, take burgers out of their wrappers, and stick the Burger King burgers in the McDonald’s wrappers again] “OK, fine. McFadden’s it is. You just keep sticking G.I. Joes in the microwave.”
M: “They’re the Two Hundred and Seventy-Fourteenth Fighter Squadron!”
B: “OK, Matt. Gimme a second here.”

I’ll take McKelvin because his name sounds like McDonald’s, and that will make Matt happy. Also, although the Lions signed Brian Kelly and traded for Leigh Bodden, Kelly’s 32 and Bodden has alternately been healthy and mediocre the last two years.

That would be great if oue draft went that way. I don't think DRC will be there for us though.

Yeah I know Adam I don't think DRC will last to 22 I hope he will but a doubt it and I don't thinki Devin Thomas will last to 28 based on all the hype he's getting, and i don't think Chris Johnson will last to pick 60 of the second round I think we would have to move to get him.

But This is the first Moc kI see that attack players that could defenetly fit our system and needs and not just put a WR just because we need one or a RB just because he went to arkansas.

Also is the first mock that I see us taking the players based on our needs CB (1) Wr(2) Rb(3) that's why I posted it

It would be awsome if we can come up with these 2 players but if we go 2 out 3 I wouldn't feel so bad
