CFZ The Cowboys and Complimentary Football

According to a USA Today article earlier this year, OL is the most likely position for success in round one with an overall success rate of over 70%. Hitting on a DT in round one is about 40%

Yup, so we just quit, or don't even try. Before Mazi, who according to many was not a 1st round talent.(I happen to agree).

Yup, so we just quit, or don't even try. Before Mazi, who according to many was not a 1st round talent.(I happen to agree).

It appears our front office loves the first round OL. Since 2011, here are the first round picks we’ve had:

• 2011- Tyron Smith- OT
• 2012- Mo Claiborne- CB (traded up to get him)
• 2013- Travis Frederick- C
• 2014- Zack Martin- G
• 2015- Byron Jones- CB
• 2016- Ezekiel Elliott- RB
• 2017- Taco Charlotte- DE
• 2018- Leighton Vander Esch- LB
• 2019- No first round pick (took DL Trysten Hill in round 2)
• 2020- Cedee Lamb- WR
• 2021- Micah Parsons- LB
• 2022- Tyler Smith- T/G
• 2023- Mazi Smith- DT
• 2024- Tyler Guyton- OT

So starting with the Tyron Smith draft in 2011, the Cowboys have selected these positions:

• OL- 5 first round picks
• CB- 2 first round picks
• LB- 2 first round picks
• DL- 2 first round picks (One was Taco, a DE, the other Mazi a NT)
• WR- 1 first round oick
• RB - 1 first round pick.

What a dumbed-down thread! Explaining basic football concepts is not why any of us come here. We know football, Bob. Talking to us like we are kindergarteners just learning something is extremely insulting!
