Mailbag: NFL-Ready Or Ceiling More Important For A QB? Byron At Safety?


YORK, PA

You’re sitting at fourth overall on the clock and the best players on your board are quarterbacks. Are you taking the guy more NFL ready or the guy with the possible higher ceiling?

Nick: I haven’t changed my stance on this and probably won’t. I just feel like you’ll get better value by taking another position at No. 4. Sure there can be busts with any spot. The Cowboys haven’t gotten anywhere close to the production they had hoped when picking Morris Claiborne sixth. But I do believe Tony Romo is the guy for a couple of more years and that being said, I think you can get a good quarterback in the second or third round and they can hold a clipboard until it’s time.
