-- INTERACTIVE MOCK DRAFT -- On Clock: COWBOYS --

I think this pick will either be corner or widereceiver. I voted for Mike Jenkins because I think he grades higher than Mario Manningham. However, either pick could contribute.

Brandon Albert would be a smart pick too even though the o-line is not an issue. There's a lot of money tied up in the line and age will be an issue in two years. It would be a pick for the future of your franchise not for the right now approach, even though adding solid depth to a line pays dividends.

If you're thinking of voting for a RB, don't. Marion Barber is a beast and will be given a chance to tote the rock this year. Also, if you still want to vote for Arkansas running back Felix Jones take a look at the teams inbetween the Cowboys picks. Steelers, Titans, Seahawks, Jaguars and Chargers. Of those teams only Seattle might be targeting a rb, not to mention that there will be solid rb prospects to be had in round two. 

With Pacman probaly on the way to Dallas I see us getting Felix Jones.

That's only if Commissioner Goddell reinstates him.

Theres a few factors. Early on in the mock I was using top 8 available players based on Mel Kiper's Big Board and Todd McShay's rankings regardless of team needs. I figured if a team need wasn't one of the top 8 prospects it would be too much of a reach on the guy anyway.

I now tailor it slightly more to the teams, but still with top available prospects. There's also an OTHER option, so if you don't see the guy there you can still get a vote in for the guy. (team x needs a wr but the available wrs grade half to a whole round later I won't put them on the poll. you can however still cast a vote for them by voting OTHER and listing the player.)

Another thing I now try to avoid, is having two prospects at the same position. They'll split the votes, and a third prospect at a different position could end up winning the poll.

I don't agree with some of the picks, like Denver taking a RB, but the idea was that with the more votes that are acquired, the silly votes would get beaten outright in the poll. With players winning team polls as low as 30% or so, that tells you the team is just as likely going in a different direction.

The Steelers are now on the clock....
