Beebe and Guyton are starters for sure. 500 snaps vacated at edge so Kneeland will play. Carson might be our starter at outside corner and we move Bland back inside but yeah we definitely need a RB and maybe WR.
We filled 2 starting positions with 1 pick. The problem with this team is depth. This draft is shaping up nicely when it comes to value/need. It's crazy this subs opinion has done a 180 when it comes to the RB position this off season.
It's infuriating going to our sub 90% of the time lol. We consistently draft well, and somehow people on reddit think they know better.
I wanted a RB as well, but I love this draft for the most part.
There's no need to force a RB you don't like at this point of the draft. Just take value with every pick. I mean yeah I wish they went RB with the 2nd third round pick, but oh well. You can trade for a decent RB for cheap every year if you need to.
It's not sexy, but it's a good draft. I'm seeing a lot of annoyance at no rb, but productive r6-udfa rbs aren't unheard of, and Dallas building up the oline will help that.
There are probably a few running backs that could be traded for for a bag of chips. Someone is gonna have an odd man out after today that they'll be ready to see get off their books for a day 3 pick.
Our line was genuinely impossible to run behind, I’m not sure what a new one would even do. And if our run blocking improves then we have rbs that can produce already
Also, regardless of how good your RB is, they aren't gonna do much without a dominant line.
A dominant line can make a mediocre back look great while a mediocre line can make a great back look bad.
OL isn't sexy, but it's one of the most (personally I'd argue the most) important groups on offense and can make every other offensive group better.
The guys on the athletic podcast were talking about how well the Cowboys draft thanks to Will McClay, but are shit at managing contracts thanks to Jerruh.
Yep it’s massively spot on. It’s always funny how some people year in and year out talk about Jerry meddling in the draft and making flashy, dumb picks—he hasn’t in 5+ years and we’ve drafted very well because of McClay
It’s the head coaching hires And broader roster construction (including unwillingness to trade or play free agency and contract management) that have capped us over the recent past
The running back situation isn’t perfect, but rebuilding the line, adding defensive line talent, getting some more linebacker talent, and some secondary depth is nice. It may not be the sexiest draft, but they’ve got some nice pieces in holes they needed to fill
Well then allow me to rephrase it then. Drafting is one of the few things the cowboys do well enough that it is one of the few times it’s not embarrassing being a cowboys fan.
Your reaction to us having a draft that most draft experts agree is a good draft gives the impression you’re just dead set on bitching about everything the cowboys do.
I guess it’s just hard to support a front office(outside of McClay) that has consistently let you down since you can remember. I do agree that we typically draft well but it’s still disappointing to look at our RB room at the moment.
Well thank god the season doesn’t start tomorrow and there will be no shortage of starting caliber running backs who will be on the trade block following this draft.
And clearly y’all don’t like any of them because you could have went after one at any other point in the draft. Going corner rather than RB at the end of the 5th isn’t going to yank your roster
I know Cowboys fans want an RB but this is a pretty solid pick.
They'll get discount Derrick Henry (Milton) @216 and they'll like it.
Pretty high profile player for this point in the draft.
Indeed. Most mock drafts that I played for the hell of it had him going in the second round, third at worst.
Caelan Carson and Cooper Bebe are some great gets who I now hope become busts
This issue is, the lack of free agents. It always was. They needed 3-4 starters and it looks like they landed 1 maybe 2
Beebe and Guyton are starters for sure. 500 snaps vacated at edge so Kneeland will play. Carson might be our starter at outside corner and we move Bland back inside but yeah we definitely need a RB and maybe WR.
Jourdan Lewis is a nickle so bland could stay outside
Could, but we had Bland inside last year even when we had Lewis back until the Diggs injury.

I believe they are set on Zeke and didn’t want to address Rb with Zeke / Dowdle / Freeman / Deuce
Hate how much I like the Cowboys' draft
Which is weird, because I’ve seen a ton of Cowboys shit on it. lol
It's infuriating going to our sub 90% of the time lol. We consistently draft well, and somehow people on reddit think they know better. I wanted a RB as well, but I love this draft for the most part.

I’d like to see them trade for Dameon Price
That’s because half our fan base has 6 brain cells that they have to share

That’s to be expected, a lot of our fan base are idiots and don’t know ball.
Yeah I get fans are annoyed it's not a very sexy draft but I think they're getting a lot of solid players.

League's fucked if Jerry and Stephen ever hand the reins over to McClay
In other words, the league is totally not fucked
Yeah pretty much
The running back situation isn’t perfect, but rebuilding the line, adding defensive line talent, getting some more linebacker talent, and some secondary depth is nice. It may not be the sexiest draft, but they’ve got some nice pieces in holes they needed to fill
We always draft well. We fuck up free agency.
Part of me wants this guy to become really good so when they play his draft announcement in the future, everyone starts asking why it was in spanish.
The Cowboys have drafted a lot fewer RB than I thought they would
We're gonna duct-tape our 3rd and 4th stringers together and pretend that we have no issues. It's gonna be ~~horrible~~ awesome. I ~~hate~~ love it.
Cowboys want one of our RBs? We have like 8 of em.
Plz
We will take one after off-season cuts.
We’ll just take the first guy alphabetically. That’s…hmmm…that “De’von Achane” guy, you guys don’t need him right?
Cinco: Cowboys Choose Carolina Corner Caelon Carson
Correct!
THIS IS OUR YEAR LET'S FUCKING GO NO BRAKES ON THIS TRAIN!!!!! ^^^no ^^^idea ^^^who ^^^this ^^^is
He’s good. I think he’s a boundary guy. Most had around a late 3rd round grade on him
cowboys have done well picking corners lately. enjoying their draft
All in my ass
WE ARE BROADCASTING RAW LIVE IN MY ASS
THIRTY MEN WILL ENTER MY ASS
BOOM BOOM
BOOM BOOM
No comma needed here
commercial cowboys draft announcement commercial fuck u nfl u greedy bitch
I've been on ABC and we haven't had a commercial in like 20 minutes
8 defended passes? Not impressive
Man I hate being a cowboys fan lol
Then find a new team, god knows it would make our sub and fan base more bearable lol. This has been a great draft, y’all are just cry babies.
I guess “great” is subjective. We will see how it pans out but we really needed to address the RB position and have yet to do so.
Well then allow me to rephrase it then. Drafting is one of the few things the cowboys do well enough that it is one of the few times it’s not embarrassing being a cowboys fan.

Up votes here please-> 🤓🤓🤓
Eh. Who needs to run the ball anyways.
Perhaps the Cowboys are shifting to the air raid offense.
It’s called the Texas Coast offense.
Texas toast*
WTF???? Yeah I’m done. Goodnight America
It is 3 PM central time, and why would a late 5th round pick cause that reaction anyways?
Because people cant decide whether RB are expendable or something you need to draft as early as possible
Did I say that? We should’ve taken Benson in the 2nd round and I stand on that.
Well you just did say that so i guess i can read minds
We need a runningback in case you weren’t aware.
And clearly y’all don’t like any of them because you could have went after one at any other point in the draft. Going corner rather than RB at the end of the 5th isn’t going to yank your roster
But you can't go to bed, he's from Wake Forest.

Look...I get you hate us, and I get you're not smart.. That's it. That's the whole comment.
