DMN Blog: Rick Gosselin's Cowboys Grade: C
by Richard Durrett
Draft guru Rick Gosselin gave the Cowboys a C in his grading of the draft. His quick Cowboys thoughts on what they did overall:
After inexplicably opting out of the first day, the Cowboys finished strong with some solid second-day selections. Brewster gives the Cowboys insurance at guard and tackle. Hamlin, Mickens and Smith bolster the secondary.
Gosselin's top grade went to the Houston Texans, who got an A+. Here's how he graded the rest of the NFC East:
Philadelphia: B
NY Giants: B
Washington: D
BTW, some folks didn't like the Cowboys draft at all. USA Today gave Dallas a D+. Here's a look:
No primo picks after last year's deal for WR Roy Williams, then had 12 choices on Sunday. Not a team with a ton of holes, though. LB Jason Williams does everything at top speed, including making mistakes. But he brings athleticism and hustle on every snap. OT Robert Brewster is big (6-4, 325) but a little short on strength and power. QB Stephen McGee could be a find in the fourth round. Career at Texas A&M derailed by coaching change and injury. Grabbed a couple of DEs in fourth round to offset loss of Chris Canty.
How would you grade the Cowboys' efforts at the draft?
