This franchise continues to have a different grading scale for the draft. That would be fine, if it produces playoff wins but Dallas knows that has not happen for closing in on three decades.
Sure, there are those that will say, look at all the Pro-Bowl "success" the Cowboys have drafted in the 1st round. Maybe better than any organization.
My rebuttal to that: Do not care about personal players achievements !

This franchise is equivalent to the Detroit Lions/Cleveland Browns in how poor they are in playoff wins
The bottom of the barrel. The 3 WORST teams in producing playoff wins in 3 decades. Don't care about Pro-Bowls, 1,000 rushing yards, receiving yards, interceptions, TD passes, sacks, tackles, etc.....

WIN playoff games.........period.

Dallas draft appears have ingredients of either reaching for a player and/or taking player and then using him differently than what he did in college. Draft a LB and use him at DE. Draft a OT and move him to guard or opposite his position say RG to LG. The NFL is a big learning adjustment to begin with and then to apply these rookies in a different position is another animal.

Now, over the years, the Cowboys also love to draft grades that fall to the 2nd rd because of "issues" and once again, the team takes another "issue" 2nd rounder. There is a reason why Dallas has been horrible with past 2nd rounders. Then little success with 5th rounders and later.

This draft strategy, along with sub par/poor coaching, has crippled this organization for far too long.

I see the usual suspects are rushing to defend ownership that averages a wild card playoff win every decade. Jerry and his ego thank you from the bottom of his wallet.

One word: Predictable! As usual some fans have already come to a conclusion on our draft before we’ve seen any of these players in training camp or preseason games.

Hey ..this is a Dallas Cowboys fan site....not sure if you ever looked into where the word "fan" came from but it is derived from the word "fanatic".

Perhaps look up those definitions and then you will understand how to act more appropriately on this site.

Unless, of course, you are a rival fan in disguise, then your act makes much money re sense around here.
