The 2020 NFL Draft gameplan: Here is what the Cowboys should do at No. 17

This top group consists of players who have almost no chance of getting to No. 17:

Joe Burrow, Chase Young, Isaiah Simmons, Jedrick Wills, Jeffrey Okudah, Derrick Brown, CeeDee Lamb and, yes, Jerry Jeudy

In every one of these cases, if a player in this grouping gets to No. 17, assuming there is not a trade to add additional top-50 (or so) picks to move back a bit, you take the player. All eight of them should be prioritized over any smaller plan you have for this pick. Hopefully, I make myself clear here: You drop all smaller plans and take the elite player if he is one of these eight names.
