  • (Editor's Note: Each day we will take the 2 best questions for our staff writers to answer from the Mailbag. "Click here" to email questions now.)

    KOU VANG, SACRAMENTO, CA: Do you think the Cowboys should move up if Patrick Chung drops close to their second-round pick?

    Nick: I don't think I'm moving up for that safety or any safety. The only way I'm moving up in the second round is to get another pick, not a higher pick. That's just me.

    Rob: How close to No. 51? A couple of picks? In that case Imight say yes, because he's a really good safety prospect, but it all depends on who else is available. They might value several players sitting there with a few picks to go and not have to trade another pick to get him. They're not going to reach in this draft. They don't have to.

    JOSH FRANKEL, WINSTON SALEM, NC: Every year there are guys drafted outside of the first round that come in and start. Based on our needs and his college career, I think Louis Delmas can come in here and be an impact right away (not to mention his willingness to throw his body around). Who do you guys think can come in the second round or later and make an impact for us this year?

    Nick: Well the word "impact" is very vague. I don't know if anyone will come in here and start. The only position where that could really happen is safety. But even that's not a given. I think there are guys at many positions that can contribute right away. Safety, wide receiver, linebacker and even cornerback could find a way on the field early on.

    Rob: Delmas has a good reputation coming out of college. I'm just not sure he'll still be there at No. 51. Chung might, and he's a good prospect. The Cowboys don't need a rookie safety to start right away, but Chung might be able to play both safety spots and he was effective against those pass-happy Pac-10 teams.
