Cowboys history of top 10 picks since 2000

I don't know how he got Hunter into my post.

I think he was just making an observation about Hunter

Our lines just beat a winning team on the road. 1st pick should be bpa.

ignoring the many games before that simply smacks of homerism

See Elliott, Parsons, Lamb, Tyron Smith, and Martin.

Those were good picks just saying I never like that claiborne or taco pick lol.

Terrence Newman was a very good player for a very long time. Looking at Pro Football Reference's attempt at a WAR formula, he was the 10th best player in the 2003 draft class by total career value. Tough to call that a bad pick.

Roy Williams is an odd case. Probably overrated in his day when he was a household name, but underrated now because people forget what a terror he was. He did fall off quickly. IMO, his broken collarbone is what really started slowing him down.

Newman was very good for a very long time; so I think it was a good pick. He got a bad rap because he did not get many picks but getting picks means a lot of time you are giving up TDs.

Roy Williams S was unlucky in that he lived about ten years too late. He would have fit in great from the early nineties to when the rule changes hit.

Of course you didn't. What was Taco pick 27? The Cowboys are very good at drafting in the top 17.

TJ Watts was the 30th pick that draft.

I thought it was when he got married, right around the time they outlawed the horse collar.
