Jaime Aron, an AP sports writer, believes Jerry Jones is “…soooo in his element at this draft.” Why does Jaime think Jerry Jones is happy? “He has two first-round picks, the only team with such lavish trade bait.”

This is what Jaime Aron writes in his article, Jones thrilled with how things stack up for Cowboys in draft.

Unfortunately, Mr. Aron wasn’t paying attention to the news in the NFL. If he did, he would have known about the Jared Allen trade that makes his statement false about the same time it came off the e-press.

Despite the mistake, the article still sums up rather nicely that Dallas is sitting pretty in the draft. I also liked how it calls the secondary the “biggest area of concern” instead of the biggest weakness.

I know it seems standard to label team needs as weaknesses, but does Dallas have any weakness? Its generally agreed upon by fans, media, and no doubt the Cowboys coaching staff and general management that Dallas would like to pick up a cornerback (or two), a wide receiver, and a running back (or two).

But are any of those positions a weakness? At cornerback we have Newman, one of the best in the league, and Henry, who is very solid. What we need is depth. At wide receiver, we have Owens, Glenn, Crayton, and Hurd among others. A pretty solid lineup. Even if Glenn doesn’t make it back, we certainly did a fair enough job at passing the ball around last year, and if Glenn does come back to full health, all the better. Running back? We have a Pro Bowl player and professional barbarian named Marion Barber.

Yeah, I like how Aron put it. What we have are some concerns. And that’s a great way to go into the draft. It gives you the flexibility to move up or down to grab an outstanding player or just pick the most talented where you are, which tends to provide the best drafts.
