I will give my thoughts on Cowboys picks:
1st round: Zack Martin - I would have preferred we spent this pick to improve our atrocious defense, but Zack Martin is a good player that helps make our O-line one of the better young lines out there.
2nd round: Demarcus Lawrence - I like the player, but I really hate that we gave so much up to trade down to get him. We could have stayed where we were at and picked a defender and got another one in the third. So that was stupid, so hopefully Demarcus Lawrence overperforms to make up for this mistake.
Anthony Hitchens - From what I've read, Hitchens was slated to go 7th round at best. So Jerry Jones strikes again, taking a guy probably not even worth drafting and doing it in the 4th round. Ugh.
Devin Street - I don't know much about his ability, but I do know we need WRs so I like that we spent the pick on him here in a midround situation. Too bad we still haven't drafted a DT though.
Ben Gardner - A defensive end from Stanford that would have gone higher had he not been injured. I like this pick a lot.
Will Smith - If this was the Fresh Prince I would be excited, but instead it's just a linebacker from Texas Tech who has been graded as an UDFA type prospect. Ugh.
Ahmad Dixon, Ken Bishop, Terrance Mitchell - For these guys all being 7th round compensatory picks this is crazy good value. Dixon especially.
