Murphy's Law states that what can go wrong will go wrong. I think this applies to the Cowboys offseason and the 1st round tonight. The Cowboys had a weak division and dominated last year. Rather than take advantage of this and clean up weaknesses to make the draft easier in free agency, they sat on their hands and did next to nothing outside signing James Washington and Dante Fowler. This is despite having needs at OT, OG, DE, and positions the FO hardly ever addresses in 1T DT and S. Not to worry. There's always the draft right? Well, the rest of the division loaded up in round one while we only had 1. Then they got very solid players. Meanwhile, the Texans get Green and the Chargers get Zion Johnson. This leads to us taking a player in Tyler Smith who committed 16 penalties last year. Still plenty of picks to go, but I have a bad feeling about this season.
It's called the Cowboy way. Every once in a while they hit on a generational player like Parsons but it may take another 25 years.

Normally everyone agrees with the picks. Last year everyone loved the Micah pick.
I recall everybody on here pissed that the CB's got taken ahead of us, and ownership didn't do anything to jump ahead of them. Micah the pick we liked, being forced to take him we didn't. Have to see how this one goes, we need OL in the worst way
