Cowboys fans have been obsessing for months- and will continue to for another three weeks- over who the team should select with the 12th overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft. The roster needs are certainly plenty: running back, wide receiver, cornerback, offensive line, even defensive line, to name just the biggies.
Grabbing an elite talent in the first half of the first round is indeed a tantalizing notion, a silver lining that makes the previous year's disappointing 7-10 finish a little easier to stomach.
But Jerry Jones & Co. have shown themselves more than willing, especially in recent years, to slide back just a few spots in the opening round in a trade.
