Archer also confirmed that passrusher David Bailey was the only player other than Downs the Cowboys were interested in moving up for.

According to reports, Downs was the 4th highest rated player on their board.

Theres some other stories on this too, going to try and find them.

Has enormous amount of physical ability and is a potential major weapon in the passing game. If he has "grown up" and ditched his previous lifestyle (which is why he wasn't drafted) he could be a steal.

Is Downs overrated? Sadly, yes. He's definitely smallish for the position, and he had a paltry number of INTs and forced fumbles at Bama and OSU. When we drafted him, the first thing Saban said was that he was a great person, not a great player. Very revealing. Then there's the inconvenient fact that the so-called "best defensive player in the draft" fell all the way to 11. The Jones boys done been hoodwinked again. :sad2:
