Draft Day ***Cowboys Draft DAY ONE***

[stiletto]

doesn’t sound like things you’d hear about a 1st round pick

It was a need boom or bust pick and everyone knows it. I don't mind the player but where they took him is just stupid. Probably could've gotten him or someone comparable at 56. Should have taken the top 10 prospect and never looked back.

Sadly, none will be there when we pick again

Smith is our starting guard day 1 and will be moved outside in the future. Ball had to redshirt cause he lacked the strength, Smith might be the strongest lineman we have now

That may be true (wouldn't be hard to be the strongest on this line) but couldn't you get a G later that would be sufficient. Why not take a player that is ready to come in & be productive at the position you drafted him for? Just seemed like there was talent there that could help you without the obvious risks. Again, I'm not saying he won't turn out good ... just that it seems like the same ole reach we have seen from this group before.

I thought Ball had injury that made it easy decision to IR him.

Hope he pancakes Davis haha

He is exactly who we needed to pick to come in and play L.G . Love the pick.

I think more would like the pick if those splash guys weren't there when they picked. Everyone likes their "pet cats".

 

[Miller]

And Cincy scores! Love him

Neither I nor anyone else on here know if Smith will be an HOFer or a bust. I do know that two of the greatest offensive linemen to ever wear the star came from very small schools and I bet 99% of fans had never heard of them before they became Cowboys. How about we wait and see how the guy pans out before declaring it a wasted pick.

 

[Floatyworm]

.....That's a good one......

 

[Carson]

Nooooooo not my boy Dax!

 

[john van brocklin]

Its funny....seems like the "experts" and "critics" like the pick and the fanbase doesn't lol.

Can only hope the experts are right

I'll read this over and over again, it makes me feel better.

Think about this, a GM believes a prospect has all pro potential but won't trade up?

 

[Malhavoc]

He was drafted to plug in at LG. Will he ever develop into Tackle ? Who knows. But I think he’s going to be a really good player in the interior.

 

[baltcowboy]

Smith is talented. It just that we will have to develop it. This might be a rebuilding year so let’s get ready for 9-8.

 

[Mr Cowboy]

 

[Carson]

We all knew he was the pick a week ago lol

 

[john van brocklin]

I'll read this over and over again, it makes me feel better.

Yep, happy thoughts

 

[mardwin]

That's how we ended up with Taco over Watt.

Pete “I HATE DALLAS” Prisco gave Dallas an A for the pick…

Yeah, I passed out!

 

[Sydla]

And brought him chocolates
