Stephen Jones on 2016 first round pick

As things turned out, we were incredibly fortunate to land both Dak and Zeke when we did. It's easy to look back and postulate what we might have done otherwise if we knew in advance what would transpire. All in all, our drafts are going substantially better than they were a handful of years back. The future awaits us with welcoming arms these days, thanks to some sound and timely decisions on draft day. It'll only get better. ;)
 
Knowing what I know now, I would have invested 10K in Apple and Microsoft each back in the day when they were first introduced in the market.

Dear Stephen Jones:

It already is better. Brown, Collins and Jaylon will be great defensive pieces from the same draft.

Stephen Jones stated knowing what he knows today he would have picked Dak as the 4th pick in the draft. I would have to agree. Happy it turned out the way it did.

This just shows you how lucky the Pokes are to have Dak. They spent a lot of time trying to trade up for Connor Cook and the loser on Denver. Dak was practically the last man standing. No one in the organization gets credit for the most fortuitous draft pick of all time for the Cowboys. It just goes to show that it is very hard to know who reaches their ceiling in college and who has room to grow. Let's not forget the can't miss QBs, David Klingler, Drew Henson, Jamarcus, the kid from UT, Sanchez, and so many other USC QBs who turned out crappy, Ryan Leaf and so many others. Sometimes you just get lucky and that is what happened to the Cowboys. If it were up to them Dak would be playing for some other team and we would have Paxton or Connor stinking it up for us.
