We are so ***... We wasted a second round on Williams last year, now we drafted a guard in the 3rd round after making Martin the highest paid guard in the league?

One of McGovern or Williams moves to RT next year. Lae'l is gone and you save $10M.

He can play anywhere and don't be so obtuse.

How am I being obtuse?

Where does McGovern play? Drafting a guy today for a potential opening 2 years from now doesn’t make a ton of sense when you have other needs.

You really can’t go wrong drafting OL from Penn State and Wisconsin haha

Dude... what about Iowa?

*Triggered Iowa fan* lol

He can start at center or guard immediately. Lots of starts in college.

First two picks spent on the lines and trenches. Protecting the QB is important, I'll give this pick that.

Strong trenches make the rest of the team stronger.

True. But I'd say at least 25% of them are on Dak.

He holds the ball too long at times. At least he doesn't throw many picks though.

They came out and blamed 14-15 out of 56 on dak. The most expensive o line in the league cant give up 41-42 sacks

LOL....another off-lineman who is light and needs to bulk up how groovy......same formula and another blame game piece when Coop is doubled and Zeke is facing 8 in the box......

P.S. Heath sleep easy baby....

You got the right guy bro?

"He's one of my favorite guards because he's got real size and real power. A lot of college linemen are coming in so light that it takes time to get them big and strong enough to play." -- Offensive line coach for NFC team

Is Frederick sure to come back?

This is the thing we still don't know. But we had a ton of injuries on the OL last year. We were awful on the OL last year and it was a big reason we lost to the Rams.

LOL I guess that's something you can't say about our 2nd round pick. I'll give you that.

Does he make the team stronger from the bench?

You are an idiot with no clue.

Impressive name calling.

the Hill pick was a head scratcher. McGovern was 10 times better and makes sense.

Depth? Reminds me of the 2009 or 2010 draft that was predicated on "depth" and special teams.. That draft was god awful. We are not talented enough to be drafting depth. We don't even have enough starters. This has not been a good draft at all.

That draft was terrible.

These two picks are potential starters. Hill likely starts this year and McGovern next season.

Way different than projects Jason Williams and Robert Brewster

McGovern hasn't played OT, as far as I'm aware.

Surprised everyone seems to forget Fleming.

Martin is moving to tackle next season. Lael is history. We need to sign Tre Boston.

This was a bit of a surprise....I'm not hating the pick, just wasn't expecting it.

I had given it some thought.

I've seen nothing to suggest the team is planning on keeping La'el Collins after this season. Doesn't mean they wont, just not hearing it.

If that's the plan, you either draft or sign a RT now or next year, or move Connor Williams outside and get another G.

It just doesn’t make much sense.

We are drafting a backup like we have a loaded roster.

They also used up more than 20% of their visits in Safeties and just let them all go off the board when they could have grabbed one.

They simply don’t value the position. 4h round safety. Maybe later. Staying with the trenches.

He just said on the Cowboys broadcast that this was the first contact he has had with the Cowboys
