***Official Draft Thread Day One***

[Denim Chicken]

Ware cut, smart contracts, no JFF. Dare I say Jerry has turned a corner?

 

[Nirvana]

That's it for the Cowboys in round 1. They've shut the war room cam down.

 

[Eddie]

I was rooting for Manziel ... mainly because he would add some excitement to the franchise.

Martin makes the most sense as he's the highest rated player on the board. I would have otherwise wanted a DT, but none was worth the #16th pick.

 

[joseephuss]

TG! This tells me they are confident in Romo's back. TG! TG! TG!

Or confident they can find a QB later on in the draft without reaching.

 

[Oh_Canada]

Guards in the first round are not solid picks.

In fairness, the kid can play anywhere.

It looked like Dallas tried moving down, but weren't getting what they wanted.

 

[Tawney88]

Maybe trade up in case Pryor gets into the 20's

 

[burmafrd]

I am now willing to believe that Jerruh finally gets it. Shiny toys are not the way to win.

 

[Texas_Pete]

Good pick. Hope we get Easley now.

My thoughts exactly.

 

[mldardy]

Whatever happened to the idea you don't take OG's this high?

Not a guard.

 

[DFWJC]

Whatever happened to the idea you don't take OG's this high?

He can play RT too

 

[fanfromvirginia]

Smith Frederick Martin.

Daddy like.

For the first time in more than a decade I am about as completely confident in the O Line as one can be.

 

[rybee]

I was starting to get on board the JF bandwagon lol

But Fred, Smith, and Martin are gonna be great for the future

Ed Cahill ‏@EdCahill 34s
Zack Martin will wear #71 for the Cowboys. #CowboysDraft #Pick16

 

[BRoni]

Johnny is sooooooo overrated

 

[superonyx]

It's not sexy like some fans like. But the reality is that having a great offensive line is the key to your entire offense performing. The big fat guys are really what matters the most.

It's funny how the same people who hate Romo for playing reckless are the same people crying because we didn't draft the most reckless QB to come out in years.

 

[Tawney88]

I think Jerry did the right thing for once.

 

[Cowboy Brian]

Manziel to the Jets... calling it now.

 

[cml750]

Notice how the Romo haters are on suicide watch right now?

I love Romo but I also happen to realize he is 34 with back problems. When a player like Manziel falls to you you have to take him given Romo's age and health. We will regret it.

 

[Risen Star]

What a great pick for the Ravens.

It seems like they do it every year.

 

[30yrheel]

No, we're just tired of losing if that's okay with you.

So glad we didn't waste a pick on that squirt.
