Recent round 2 draft picks

[morasp]

How have our recent round 2 draft picks performed? There should be a high probability of getting a plus starter in round 2 so how do we compare to the Eagles who are coming off a Super Bowl win. Here are the picks and their stats for 2024.

2020
Cowboys Trevon Diggs CB
Our best recent round 2 pick but had serious injuries the last 2 seasons
Started 11 games in 2024 95% of the defensive snap counts
Started 2 games in 2023

Eagles Jalen Hurts QB
Started 15 games 91% of the offensive snaps

2021
Cowboys Kelvin Joseph CB
Signed by the Colts in 2024 started 0 games and played 0% of the offensive snaps

Eagles Landon DIckerson IOL
Started 16 games 92% of the offensive snaps

2022
Cowboys Sam Williams DE
Injured all of 2024

Eagles Cam Jurgens IOL

2023
Cowboys Luke Schoonmaker TE

Eagles Traded with Texans to round 3 picked Tyler Steen OT

Cowboys Marshawn Kneeland DE

Eagles Cooper DeJean CB

Really makes me want to take a high floor player at pick 44.

The last two years the Eagles have crushed us at drafting and free agency. The big difference between the Cowboys and Eagles is that they seem to get what they want no matter the cost. I heard that we wanted the San Francisco linebacker but he wanted to much money. I heard we wanted to keep Lewis but he wanted to much money. I have never heard that excuse for the Eagles.

The Eagles wanted Jalen Carter in the draft, they made a trade to get him. The Eagles wanted Barkley. They paid him. The Eagles secondary was trash. They paid a safety and drafted two cornerbacks. The Cowboys go dumpster diving.

We accept your resignation.
