BEST
The Cowboys seem to draft extremely well when they don’t reach to fill a need. They wanted a cornerback in 2021, but the top two were taken before their pick rolled around, so they “settled” for
Micah Parsons, one of the best edge rushers in the game.
CeeDee Lamb is another home-run pick, while
Tyler Smith looks like an excellent selection on the offensive line even though he was seen as a raw prospect at the time.
Leighton Vander Esch was just forced into retirement by injuries but, when healthy, was an outstanding linebacker, while both
Zeke Elliott and
Byron Jones had excellent seasons for the Cowboys.
The only clear negative in their drafting was
Taco Charlton in 2017, with
Mazi Smith too early to write off after a rookie campaign that saw him struggle to a 47.2 PFF grade.

The Cowboys are often maligned as underachievers, but owner/general manager Jerry Jones has stocked America’s Team with talent. Dallas has also advanced a few times in the postseason, but has yet to reach the NFC championship game since the 1995 season.
LIsted as #4 at drafting talent.
This why i be like don't listen to Stephen A or Skip Bayless but the Cowboys fans gonna get you right this summer.
