Dallas Cowboys Draft Review

Everything is bigger in Texas, and next year that will include the Cowboys expectations. The Roy Williams experiment doesn’t seem to be working so the decided to draft a receiver. Dez Bryant fits the bill of a Cowboy player, he’s flashy and has off the field issues. But his potential had Jerry Jones frothing at the mouth and we all know who calls the shots in big D.

They added a solid linebacker in Sean Lee out of Penn State. He’s a smart, versatile player and will no doubt find a role on that defense. While safety was more of a concern, the Cowboys drafted a pair of cornerbacks. Akwasi Owusu-Ansah out of Indiana (PA) and Jamar Wall out of Texas Tech are similar type players, They’re both fast, special teams standouts that will give the Cowboys decent depth at corner. Offensive line was an area that needed attention. Notre Dame giant Sam Young will look to come in and eventually compete at that right tackle spot.

The defensive line also needed a little help so they drafted William and Mary tackle Sean Lissemore. He’s a little undersized, but his athletic ability should find him a roster spot. As usual, the Cowboys drafted size and athleticism. It hasn’t necessarily been working for them as of late, but maybe things will change this year.
