After looking through countless mocks and doing them myself over the past few months, I must say we have came away with one of our dream mocks that would never happen. This is the best draft we’ve had in quite some time. The zeke draft was great but we picked #4 so it was kind of hard to mess that pick up. We got a top 5 talent that fell to 17 and a top 20-25 talent that fell to 51! Ready to see these rooks develop

I thought our first 3 pick were excellent, then I thought we might drop the ball, but NO! Our Later picks have been Awesome!
Everyone of these guys can contribute immediately.
I especially like the DE from Utah. Can you say intensity and technique. Polar opposite of Taco, and we got him in the 5th round.

This draft reminds me of a late-night infomercial.
What if I told you
You could get a top-10 player at 17
A top 30 player at 51
And a top 40 player at 82:flagwave:

But hold on. If you call in the next 30 minutes.
You also get
A top 100 player at pick123:)
A top 100 player at pick 146o_O
And a top 100 player at pick 179:omg:

Cowboys crushed this one:flagwave:

Could you imagine adding any of these after draft?

jamal adams- next years pick
Malik hooker- next years pick
Oj Howard- next year pick

Everson griffin or clowney.

Talk about hype going into season

all that for just 5 easy payments of $19.99. Call in the next 2 minutes and we’ll throw in a top 150 player in the 7th.

Two comments, positive and negative:

Positive - I learned long ago that while individual posters and pundits aren't always right, when you get the vast majority of them saying "good job" or "that's terrible", the consensus is usually right. When a team gets lots of good draft grades, they usually end up being happy with the class. There is a strong correlation. This draft has been universally loved. The fans and the pundits love it. The absolute worst case for this class, IMO, is multiple contributors.

Negative - I'm really not seeing anyone taken as being highly likely to be a franchise player. These guys all strike me as complementary players. That works for Dallas right now because they have their core pieces but we should keep that in mind before we go too far with lauding the group.

Overall, I'm just as happy as everyone else for what has happened. I'll take it a step further in that this is a great sign for McCarthy working with Jerry and many of us being right about the damage JG and RM were doing. This might not just mean a good class this year. It might be a sign of this happening regularly.
