If you were Phil Emery and had to make a choice between keeping Melton or drafting Donald which would you choose? Personally if I had to choose only one I'd go with Donald.
keep Melton AND draft Donald.
I'd like to keep Melton and draft Donald as well but if it wasn't an option and you had to choose one which would it be.

Draft Donald and resign Ratliff saves us $. Melton can walk.
The problem with letting Melton walk is that you don't know that Donald will be there at 14. Every team that wants Donald will know they have to trade up in front of the Bears.
And you know damn well the Cowboys need DTs and won't for a minute hesitate to move up and grab Donald. In fact I anticipate this very thing happening on top of them making a run in at Melton in free agency with a higher cap number.
The Cowboys sit at 16 and the Rams sit at 13 the Rams traded back twice last year and still wound up with the player they coveted. You don't think for a minute they won't trade down and go after a WR they covet if Dallas wants to trade up for Donald?
Emery better be on his toes doing his due diligence with Dallas trying to rebuild their defense in the mold of the Bears.
