Patrick Peterson: Report: Peterson tops Cowboys' draft board
Patrick Peterson - DB - CLG - Mar. 1 - 1:10 pm et

Citing sources, SI's Tony Pauline reports that the Cowboys have LSU CB Patrick Peterson ranked as the top player in the 2011 NFL draft.
Their high opinion was only reinforced by Peterson's 4.32 and 4.37 forty times Tuesday at the Combine. Per Pauline, Dallas "covets" the 2010 Thorpe Award winner. The Cowboys draft ninth overall, so they may strongly consider a move up for Peterson. Terence Newman is a candidate for offseason release.

From what Im "hearing" it's Peterson #1 (overall), and then Tyron Smith and Cameron Jordan #2 and #3 (in regards to getting them with the 9th pick). We supposedly like Dareus a lot too but would only consider trading up for Peterson.

I really don't see how this information got leaked out.

If I were the GM I wouldn't want anyone to know who I'm looking to draft and who's on my board.

We have never done the best job of keeping our intentions secret.

True, we were better then but everyone knew we were going Bobby Carpenter in 2006.

It's called shopping around without actually shopping around. It could be true, or it could be just a smokescreen to move up to draft someone they really want.

BTW good choices in Tyron Smith and Cameron Jordan.

This is someone just guessing, I doubt the Cowboys (or any other team) have stacked their draft board yet.
