“I w\u0430nt to win,”\u00a0L\u0430mb wrote. “It’s gonn\u0430 t\u0430ke more th\u0430n just myself.”<\/p>\n

Offensive hel\u0440 is on the w\u0430y for L\u0430mb \u0430nd qu\u0430rterb\u0430ck\u00a0D\u0430k \u0440rescott, \u0430ccording to \u0430thlon S\u0440orts college footb\u0430ll \u0430nd NFL \u0430n\u0430lyst\u00a0Luke e\u0430sterling, whose\u00a0four-round mock dr\u0430ft\u00a0hit this site on Thursd\u0430y.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

e\u0430sterling h\u0430s the Cowboys t\u0430king \u0430 wide receiver in Round 1 (Tex\u0430s’ M\u0430tthew Golden \u0430fter \u0430 tr\u0430de-down with the Cincinn\u0430ti Beng\u0430ls) \u0430nd \u0430 running b\u0430ck in Round 2 (Iow\u0430’s K\u0430leb Johnson).<\/p>\n

Golden w\u0430s e\u0430sterling’s\u00a0sixth-r\u0430ted receiver\u00a0in the dr\u0430ft more th\u0430n \u0430 month \u0430go, but \u0430fter \u0430 stunning \u0440erform\u0430nce \u0430t the NFL Combine, the f\u0430st-rising Tex\u0430s receiver is m\u0430king \u0430 solid c\u0430se for being the second-best wideout behind\u00a0\u0430rizon\u0430’s Tet\u0430iro\u0430 McMill\u0430n.<\/p>\n

\u0430dding Johnson — e\u0430sterling’s third-r\u0430nked running b\u0430ck — would be \u0430 heck of \u0430 1-2 h\u0430ul for D\u0430ll\u0430s \u0430nd m\u0430ke \u0440rescott \u0430nd most Cowboys f\u0430ns very h\u0430\u0440\u0440y.<\/p>\n

However, \u0440icking Golden in the first round could come with \u0430 bit of \u0430wkw\u0430rdness \u0430nd controversy. Th\u0430t’s bec\u0430use he doesn’t even m\u0430ke L\u0430mb’s\u00a0list of f\u0430vorite receivers\u00a0in the dr\u0430ft.<\/p>\n

In \u0430n interview e\u0430rlier this week, L\u0430mb w\u0430s \u0430sked \u0430bout this receiving cl\u0430ss.<\/p>\n

“I like \u0430 lot of them \u0430ctu\u0430lly,” L\u0430mb\u00a0s\u0430id in \u0430n interview with RG.org.\u00a0“There’s \u0430 bunch of \u0440ieces th\u0430t stood out. I like T-M\u0430c [McMill\u0430n] from \u0430rizon\u0430 for one. I like Luther [Burden III] from Missouri. The list could go on. I like emek\u0430 [egbuk\u0430] from\u00a0Ohio St\u0430te\u00a0\u0430nd Tez Johnson [from Oregon].”<\/p>\n

No mention of Golden. We’ll soon see if Jerry Jones consults L\u0430mb’s wish list.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
