    I averaged out the pre-draft rankings of about 580 draft prospects to attempt to gauge the value of each pick. Here are the results for Dallas’s picks and UDFAs. The players are sorted by their rank on this composite big board. First two numbers (after the names) are their average rank on the 8 pre-draft ranking lists I used, and the second number is where that number ranks among all prospects. The third number (after DAL) is where they were picked, and the last number is their estimated pick value (draft pick # minus their overall rank, omitted for UDFAs).


    Micah Parsons 11.1 10 OLB Penn State DAL 12 2
    Jabril Cox 66.4 59 OLB LSU DAL 115 56
    Kelvin Joseph 74.6 68 CB Kentucky DAL 44 -24
    Osa Odighizuwa 108.8 100 DT UCLA DAL 75 -25
    Simi Fehoko 159.9 154 WR Stanford DAL 179 25
    Chauncey Golston 160.8 155 DE Iowa DAL 84 -71
    Israel Mukuamu 168.1 164 CB South Carolina DAL 227 63
    Josh Ball 214.1 210 OT Marshall DAL 138 -72
    Brandon Smith 249.6 244 WR Iowa DAL FA
    Tyler Coyle 276.6 270 SS Purdue DAL FA
    Osirus Mitchell 281.5 275 WR Mississippi State DAL FA
    Quinton Bohanna 286.6 280 DT Kentucky DAL 192 -88
    T.J. Vasher 293.3 284 WR Texas Tech DAL FA
    Nahshon Wright 297.1 291 CB Oregon State DAL 99 -192
    Anthony Hines III 314.8 313 OLB Texas A&M DAL FA
    Brennan Eagles 341.4 338 WR Texas DAL FA
    Brenden Knox 350.3 350 RB Marshall DAL FA
    Matt Farniok 380.4 380 OG Nebraska DAL 238 -142
    JaQuan Hardy 431.6 441 RB Tiffin DAL FA
    Artayvious Lynn 433.4 445 TE TCU DAL FA
    Braylon Jones 503.3 513 OG Houston DAL FA
    Nick Ralston FB/TE Louisiana-Lafayette DAL FA

    Cox and Mukuamu stand out as high value picks while much of the rest were likely reaches, Farniok and Wright especially.

    I think it was a great draft but one of my top 5 joys in life is watching the Cowboys choke on average sized peni. Am I lying to myself or not?

    This team is so snake-bitten. Have a good showing in Week 1 against the returning champs only to then find out Tank and Gallup are going on IR, Collins is suspended, Gregory has COVID, Kazee and Wilson are questionable or worse for week 2...So fucking frustrating.

    No it’s just annoying that so much of it happened after getting out of Week 1 and preseason seemingly unscathed outside of Gallup and Gallimore

    Hi, Dallas resident/Panthers fan here. I am thinking about taking my 3 year old to the game and, knowing he is likely to want to leave by the third quarter, I don't want to blow a bunch of money on seats. Has anyone ever used standing room only tix? I assume it's not the best game-watching experience (but neither is the upper deck of that stadium). A few questions:
    • How early do you need to get to the stadium to get a decent spot in SRO?
    • Is the view worth a shit? Are there TVs in the SRO area? Is your view obstructed if you're not in the front of the SRO section?
    • Is it wise to take a toddler to the SRO section?
    Thanks

    Team looks legit this year. I was sure we would find a way to lose yesterday but what do you know they pulled it out.

    Also the most yards a Belicheck defense has ever given up.

    I haven’t legitimately cared about the Boys since Rodgers threw that ridiculous pass. I knew better than to invest emotional capital. I cared yesterday. I still think their ceiling is conference championship game.

    After seeing what Carolina gave up for Henderson i wish we were in on that. I wonder if they would have taken Jarwin and a 3rd over what they got.
