So basically we would gain a 4th round pick if we fell back to 29. Cowboys also hinting they may trade up if Bijan Robinson or Darnell Washington fall around the 20th pick.

I don't want to trade down just to acquire late picks.

You may call it lucky, but based on the last 7 years it was unlucky considering all the great QB's that have been taken since then.

He was the best QB in that entire draft and we were aiming to trade up for Paxton Lynch who can't hold Dak's jockstrap. So yes we got EXTREMELY lucky.
The better QBs that have been taken since are all top-10 draft picks. We never sucked bad enough to be in place for any of them. The Bengals had to be the worst team in the NFL to get Burrow.

I disagree there there’s not much talent in this draft after round 3. There are several really good TE’s, RB’s, LB’s, and DL that should be available on day 3. Not to mention that the Cowboys have a guy running the draft that has proven to be really good. Will McClay has been pretty good at finding starters in the later rounds.

Yea I think he signed with the Texans pretty early in free agency. Semi Fuhoko is the new Noah Brown.

Neither has the Kansas City Chiefs. They moved up like 18 or 19 spots to the 10 pick and basically gave up most of their draft capital to select Patrick Mahomes. You don't have to suck if you see the GUY you really want and go after him. And I'm sure the Chiefs are not sad about that move.

Oh well let's just trade up for Mahomes then! Geez I didn't realize it was all that simple. I'm not sure why every team isn't doing that, I mean look at KC, they did it.

Can we please take the gloves off for one day and enjoy the draft. It does matter to me that we do the best we can to make this team better.

Never heard of Fuhoko or know a thing about him. I guess Noah Brown is so under the radar I never noticed the movement in FA. I'm not sure he was going to work out anyways.

The Cowboys are getting a lot of praise for drafting DeMarvion Overshown.

Actually, except for our second round pick, we did pretty damn good imho. Thought we could have done much better there.
