Dallas ... is armed with 10 selections over seven rounds, tied for second-most in the league.

10 selections over 7 rounds?
Trust in Yoda to screw it up....

That is a HUGE distortion of the picture. The Cowboys have 5 selection in the last 2 rounds.

So they have 5 picks in the first 5 rounds. Sounds completely different saying it that way.

Still sounds like 10 to me….lol. Still better than 7 in 7.

More shots to get lucky at least,

Go split your hairs with USA today.
10 means 10. Unless you are in Bizarro World, in which 10 means 5.
Heh.

Four of the ten picks are after 200 players are selected. Maybe the Cowboys can find a Purdy with one of their many 7th rounders.

We sure do love our 5th and 6th round comp picks around here.

That’s why we don’t need to trade down

That’s why we don’t need to trade down

Heh.

 

[plasticman]

That could be translated as the Cowboys losing more talented players to free agency before last season without compensating by signing free agents to replace them.

That's not a very notable distinction.

The Cowboys have 3 of the first 76 picks. And 7 of the last nearly 200. Very bottom heavy.

 

[ElGatoGrande]

well given that they have a bazillion holes in their roster they can take fliers on guys with huge upside and not worry about them taking up a roster spot for someone more deserving. (I'm a glass half full kinda guy )

Yes, thanks lad for re-emphasizing tha.

Trading down is exactly what the Cowboys need. They need all the picks they can get in the first three/four rounds.

This might pique your interest re late rounds. On a position we sorely need to fill by 2026. Check put No. 3. O'Rourke seems like an Aikman.
And No. 2 Gabriel Dillon is intriguing albeit height issues.

 

[TNCowboy]

The 49ers have 8 of the top 160 picks. 2 3rds, 2 4ths, 2 5ths. That's a ton more draft capital than we have. They could move up with any of their 1st 3 picks a lot easier than we can.

And how many do they have in the first 4 rounds?

Heh.

It also means that there are 10 chances Jerry will royally screw it up.

 

[fivetwos]

If they are smart they do everything possible to trade 6th for next years 5th, etc.

No way all those picks are making the team, although it does help with not having to chase UDFA.

What they need is to deal down in the first for a future first (or start using free agency) but that’s a different conversation.
