Mailbag: Does The Hardy Suspension Affect Draft?; Timetable For Appeal?

TREY POWELL
WACO, TX
Since Hardy will be suspended 10 games, should the Cowboys main draft need be a pass rushing defensive end? I know this was already a need, but now I think a defensive end is a requirement in order for this defense to be somewhat better.

Bryan: Unless Dante Fowler, Randy Gregory or Bud Dupree comes sliding down that board, you were going to be hard pressed to find a guy that would make the difference that you are seeking at 27. I would keep an eye on guys like Frank Clark and Danielle Hunter in the middle of this draft that might ease the loss of Hardy some.
