Your 2026 Dallas Cowboys Draft Class

[WillieBeamen]

Then we already have a better edge rusher than Mesidor since Donovan Ezeiruaku had 16 sacks his last season in college. Since we're scouting off a stat sheet.

Swing and miss.

How does Ezeiruaku being better in college than Mesidor pertain to Malachi Lawerence?

If we took Mesidor instead, you wouldnt even question who was better

USAToday gave us a B-. They didn't like the Lawrence pick.

Me neither.

I love that the member who voted F hasn't posted since 2009.

If the Cowboys had a 2nd round pick, I bet they would have drafted that McCoy kid from Tennessee, with the knee injury. That's the way Jerry rolls.

That's why I was okay with not having a 2nd round pick. That's Jerry's "I'm smarter than everyone else" round.

 

[Hardline]

I go by the Landry philosophy.
Ask me this 3 years from now.

A smart team would have spent a 4th on a developmental QB, Milton aint it. This is not a smart team clearly.

 

[JPostSam]

downs is a home run. i’m not excited by the rest of the picks. hoping to be surprised.

 

[CarolinaFathead]

Or this.

This is exactly how it should be looked at.

 

[Floatyworm]

I like the draft overall I thought our round four sucked

Feels like we really missed some opportunities today. Regardless.....We killed it on Thursday. Friday....was ok.....then this.

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

The grade of each draft according to the posters on this site over the last 5 years has been an A.

So I agree. This draft will help us continue the level of success we've achieved these last 5 years

Taking a receiver in the seventh sends a message to Flournoy, maybe, but definitely not Pickens.

Flo balled out last year. Wut you talkn bout.

I would say these guys need some nfl playing time before we beat chests and grunt at each other about it.

 

[Tabascocat]

Outside of Smith, Lawrence is probably my least favorite pick.

 

[75boyz]

Is there a Vegas over/under on how many second contracts will be given out of this draft class yet?

The we like our guys path to winning rolls on.

Cowboys!

 

[Verdict]

Grade it.

If I get out my crystal ball it says that: Downs, Lawrence, Barsham and Moore will play, contribute and will be valuable players for us.

The other three are very iffy players. If we get anything out of them it is pure profit.

That’s my scientific “WAG” guess.

Taking a WR in the 7th only sends messages to the PS guys.

Taking a WR in the 7th sends a message to Flournoy.

The message is “the 3rd WR spot is yours Ryan”

My point was why even draft a receiver.

 

[morasp]

A, they drafted three starters last year and going into day two I thought there no way they would do it again but they somehow they did it again. This is also the first time in a long time that all but one of our picks had a grade of 6.0 or higher from Lance but the TE Trigg does so it balances out.

 

[RFABR]

Draft clearly anchored on a "big picture" plan instead of randomly shooting around or getting cute with offensive reaches and redshirt flyers - that by itself would make it a A.

1st day trades up and down were great.

Maybe a not so good day 3, but too too early to tell

B+ to A-

Oh....that didn't seem to be the case. But don't they have to replace a WR on the roster? Fussin' over 7th round is...odd.
