Do you think they will draft a Quarterback this year with a later round pick?

11:51
Calvin Watkins: They should. The trade for Jon Kitna put Romo on notice, to get his act together or we will replace you. Drafting one this spring is another way to keep Romo on his toes. Dallas shouldn't draft one in the second round, but wait for the later rounds and get one. The team has nine picks right now, so using one for a quarterback isn't a bad idea.

who will play strong safty next year with Roy gone
11:35
Calvin Watkins: Sean, I think they will move Ken Hamlin over to strong safety and possibly move Orlando Scandrick to free safety. It's an interesting move because Hamlin is supposed to be this physical presence and he didn't play that way last year. I still think the Cowboys will draft a safety or look somewhere in free agency. I saw where Shawn Springs was asked could he play safety by the Eagles. I think Springs would be a good fit here in Dallas.

Apparently, this changes to absolute fact less than 30 minutes later.

What about the SECONDARY?????

12:04
Calvin Watkins: As of today, right now, Mike Jenkins is the starting right corner. Newman is the left corner. Scandrick is the free safety and Hamlin the strong. Things could change but that's how it is right now.
