One of those questions was answered recently when owner Jerry Jones said he wouldn’t be trading up into the top five picks in the draft. There had been some speculation that the Cowboys could look to trade up to get the first overall pick but that speculation has died off. Instead, it looks like the Cowboys are content to keep their two picks.

Trading down is an option but it looks like the Cowboys would be smart to stay right where they are and get two players than can help them right away. With Terrell Owens only having one or two years left at a superstar level, the time to win is now in Dallas. Picking pieces that can fill holes immediately is what makes the most sense.

At 22, the Cowboys should look to add DeSean Jackson out of California. Jackson is a wide receiver, but even more importantly he has the potential to be a game changing return specialist. Jackson could step in right away and give the Cowboys a special teams weapon that could help the team win a few extra games. Jackson would also prove to be a deep threat for the Cowboys in their vertical passing game.

Felix Jones at 28 makes a lot of sense. Jones, who was Darren McFadden’s backup at Arkansas, would be a perfect complement to Marion Barber III. With Barber and Jones in the backfield, the Cowboys would have their own version of thunder and lightening.

If either of these two players aren’t available, going for a cornerback such as Mike Jenkins, Aqib Talib or Brandon Flowers makes a lot of sense.
