Luther Burden III NFL Draft photo
There has been quite the debate over the last several months among Cowboys Nation about whether or not they want running back Ashton Jeanty drafted at 12, assuming he's there. Count me as one that would take him, given the hires of Brian Schottenheimer and Klayton Adams, as well as the lack of top-end talent in this class.

Behind Travis Hunter, Abdul Carter, Will Johnson and Mason Graham, Jeanty is arguably the next best prospect in this class. At 12, you can't argue with that kind of value. Having said that, that applies to everyone picking ahead of the Cowboys too, and in this scenario, someone takes the value. Dallas has to be prepared for that and Luther Burden is one of several players who would be a nice Plan B, along with Ohio State's Josh Simmons, Georgia's Jalon Walker and Mykel Williams, and Missouri's Armand Membou (who is shooting up boards).

Burden's ability to be a big-play threat with the ball in his hands is very intriguing, but don't sleep on a guy like Emeka Ebuka here either. There is virtually nothing he can't do at the receiver position, and my days of hoping he'd slip to Dallas in the second round are dwindling fast.

COWBOYS HISTORICAL DRAFT PICKS

Reach/Value (R/V) Explained
The difference between where a player is selected in the NFL draft versus where the player was listed on the final Drafttek Big Board for the season in question.
Example: A player who was listed at #50 on the Big Board and was selected at #35 will be a "Reach" of -15. Alternately, a player listed at #35 on the Big Board who was selected at #50 is a +15 "Value".

Simply put: a positive number is a Value pick, a negative number is a Reach.
