Dallas Cowboys 2022 College Draft

 

                                     NFL College Draft 2022

    In retrospect, the Dallas Cowboys had weak spots in their defense in 2021 and that was at the top of the list as they headed for Las Vegas to try and improve for 2022. So wouldn't you know they would select an offensive lineman with their number one pick.

   Dallas had the 24th selection in the 1st round and they went after offensive tackle Tyler Smith of Tulsa University. He is 6 foot 5 and weighs in at 325 pounds. Actually he will be coming home as he was born and raised in Fort Worth. Tyler just turned 21 years of age last month and should compete with Connor Williams for the left guard spot to gain some experience before moving over to left tackle when Tyron Smith retires. Coaches say Tyler Smith is a big speciman that excells at run blocking. The Cowboys have had good luck when picking offensive lineman with their #1 pick...Tyron Smith in 2011, center Travis Frederick in 2013, and guard Zack Martin in 2014. All were named to All-Pro teams very quickly.

        Dallas must have high expectations for Smith as they have issued him #73 as a uniform number.. That was the number of Larry Allen who dominated the offensive line as a Cowboy and who John Madden called the best lineman he had ever seen..

    In the second round Dallas had the 56th selection and went for defensive line help when they picked Sam Williams from the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss). He is 6'3'' and 261 pounds.

     Williams is extremely athletic for his position and ran a 4.46 at the NFL Combine, and also a 36 inch vertical jump. His final year at Ole Miss saw him record a school record 12.5 quarterback sacks. Until then the record had stood for 31 years. He was a three year starter for the Rebels and an All-SEC performer. Long arms make him a natural at this position. With the loss of Randy Gregory to free agency, Williams should find some playing time and keep opponents from double teaming Micah Parsons.

    In the 3rd round Dallas had the 88th overall pick and went for help at wide receiver.. Having lost both Amari Cooper and Cedrick Wilson to free agency, they picked Jalen Tolbert of South Alabama.

    Tolbert is 6 foot one and tips the scales at 195 pounds. He was almost picked in the 2nd round, but Dallas was surprised when he was still available in the 3rd. He is the all-time leading receiver for South Alabama and had 22 touchdown catches his senior year. Tolbert averaged better than 17 yards per catch.. He is a small school product but stood out in playing in the Senior Bowl. Can play outside or in the slot....also a punt returner.

    In the 4th round the Cowboys were choosing the 129th player and he turned out to be tight end Jake Ferguson from the University of Wisconsin.

     Fergy is six foot five and weighs 250 pounds.. His father and grandfather all played for the Badgers. Jake was named to the All-Big Ten team in 2020 and 2021. In 47 games played for Wisconsin he scored 13 touchdowns... A better pass receiver than a run blocker but that is something Dan Quinn's squad can work on.. At the NFL Combine he broad jumped 118 inches from a standing spot. He possesses 9 and a half inch wide hands. His college coaches say he is an overachiever and the last to leave the practice field. Should be a back-up to Dalton Schultz this season..

B A Z I N G A... Dallas had four (4) picks in the 5th round and really made an impact on that shopping list for America's Team..

Dallas got more help on the offensive line when they chose big tackle Matt Waletzko of North Dakota.. He is 6 foot 7 and weighs in at 310 pounds. He played in 28 games in 4 seasons with the Fighting Hawks, including 10 games this past season. He is the second offensive lineman Dallas selected (#1 Tyler Smith). Good lateral movement and quick off the line. The Cowboys project him as a possible back-up to Tyron Smith at left tackle or right tackle Terence Steele.

    With the 167th pick Dallas picked cornerback DaRon Bland of Fresno State.. He weighs in a 197 pounds and stands six foot one. Defensive Coordinator Dan Quinn loves big, rangy corners that go for the ball, and that is what they got in Bland. In track & field competition, Bland was the school's long jumper and 60 meter dash specialist. He ran a 4.46 in his Pro Day debut. Should compete for a starting spot as Dallas is extremely young on the flanks.

   The 176th selection saw Dallas going to Baton Rouge for the second year in a row. Last year it was Jabril Cox and this time the Cowboys chose linebacker Damone Clark, a 6 foot 2 inch, 240 pounder. He had surgery in March to have spinal fusion for a herniated disk, but Dallas likes the long term possibilities for this Bengal Tiger. He was a Butkus Award finalist after leading the SEC in tackles with 135.

  With the 178th overall pick, Dallas chose defensive tackle John Ridgeway of Arkansas. He stands 6 foot 5 and weighs 321 pounds. He will be only the second Arkansas player picked by Jerry Jones since he acquired the team. Big bodied Ridgeway should take up a lot of space in the middle of the line. He played 3 years at Illinois State before transferring to Arkansas. He told Jones he would dominate for the Cowboys.

    Moving to the 6th round, Dallas had the 193rd pick and with it they went for linebacker Devin Harper of Oklahoma State.. He is an even 6 feet tall and weighs 235 pounds..

    Thanks to the Covid 19 scare, Harper played five seasons in Stillwater. He started 16 of 59 games played for the collegiate Cowboys. In 2021 he made eleven tackles for a loss and six quarterback sacks enroute to All-Big 12 honors. Look for him to play special teams immediately as he finds his way into the scheme of Dan Quinn's defense. Harper was impressive with his speed (4.49) and athletic ability at the OSU Pro Day..

 The Cowboys did not have a pick in the 7th round, but made up for it with four players in the 5th round. The coaching staff has already scattered across the country in search of free agent players who did not make the draft. A couple of the draftees have already come to Dallas for a face to face meeting with the coaching staff. A couple of team meetings are scheduled before the August beginning of training camp.. All of the players look good on paper but the thining out will begin at training camp... Good Luck to all.

Dallas Cowboys 2021 College Draft Picks

 

     2021 NFL College Draft

       The Dallas Cowboys went into the 2021 College Draft looking for help on the defensive side of the ball...and for good reason. Dallas had one of the worst defenses in the NFL in 2020. The Cowboys had the 10th overall selection in this years draft, but at the last minute they traded that pick to Philadelphia (?) for an additional pick and dropped to the 12th overall position.. With the 12th pick Dallas went to Penn State for linebacker help..

     Number 11 is Micah Parsons, who tips the scales at 245 pounds and stands 6 foot 3. With the recent retirement of Sean Lee (also from Penn State) the Cowboys have a serious need at the linebacker position. Experts are calling Parsons the best linebacker in this years draft. He sat out the 2020 season fearing an injury would hurt his chances in the draft. He possess outstanding speed and is a physical punisher when he makes the tackle. If he is not in the starting line-up in game one..something is wrong.

   Round two of the College Draft saw the Cowboys continue on the defensive as they went for Cornerback Kelvin Joseph of Kentucky.

    Dallas attempted to trade up in the second round but talks with the New York Jets fell threw. With the 44th overall pick the Cowboys hopefully can upgrade a very porous secondary. Joseph played three years at Louisiana State University, but after altercations with the coaching staff, he transferred to Kentucky. He is 6 foot 1 and weighs 197 pounds. Exceptionally good at man-to-man coverage and is big, fast, and very athletic...BUT needs to control that temper. Loves to hit and make tackles. Coaches say he is very cocky and very confident in his abilities.

   Dallas had three picks in the third round of the draft and continued to look for help for defensive coordinator Dan Quinn. The first of three selections in the third found the Cowboys going for defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa.

    First problem here will be trying to get his name on the back of a jersey.. Odighizuwa is 6 foot 2 and 280 pounds and saw action all four years at U.C.L.A. He was first team All Pac12 and named the top defensive lineman in the 2021 Senior Bowl. Recorded 30 tackles in seven games for the Bruins and could find a spot on the team with the sudden retirement of Tyrone Crawford last month.

    The second third-round pick for Dallas was the 84th overall selection and Dallas continued to try and shore up the defensive line by picking end Chauncey Golston of Iowa.

Golston is 6 foot 5 and 270 pounds of solid muscle, and the first Hawkeye taken in this years draft. He was honorable mention to the All Big-10 Conference and led the team with 45 tackles and 5 and a half sacks his senior season. Coaches say he is a great edge rusher and excels against the running game. 

   The third pick in the third round found Dallas looking to the great Northwest when they selected Nahshon Wright, a giant of a cornerback from Oregon State University.

     Wright is 6 foot 4 and 188 pounds and the tallest cornerback in college football in 2020. He was the 99th overall pick in the draft. Coaches named Wright to the All Big 12 Conference Team after last season. In his final year Wright recorded 64 tackles with one sack and five interceptions. Against the pass he also recorded eleven pass breakups. He bypassed his senior season to apply for the NFL draft.

   The Cowboys had two selections in the fourth round of the draft and with the first one they made the call to Jabril Cox of L.S.U.

    Cox is 6 foot 3 and 232 pounds and was the 115th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. He spent three years at North Dakota State and the Buffs were small college national champions all three years. For his senior year he transferred to Baton Rouge. In 2020 he recorded 58 tackles, 3 interceptions, and 6 and a half tackles behind the line of scrimmage. He also is credited with knocking down 5 pass attempts. LSU coaches say the sky is the limit for this one as he loves to 'get his hands dirty.' His position coach says he lives for the hard contact of an open field tackle.

     The second selection of the fourth round (138th overall) found the Cowboys making their first pick for an offensive player..and a controversial one at that.

 Dallas picked Josh Ball, a giant offensive tackle from Marshall University. This was the 138th overall pick in the draft. Ball played for Florida State for three years but transferred to Marshall after being suspended at Florida State for a domestic abuse charge from an ex-girlfriend. Dallas Vice-President Stephen Jones said the team did an in depth background check on Ball and the team is confident he is now headed in the right direction. Ball is 6 foot 5 and 323 pounds.

   In the fifth round of the NFL Draft the Cowboys found another offensive player to their liking in wide receiver Simi Fehoko of Stanford University.

Fehoko is the 179th overall pick and stands 6 foot 4 and 222 pounds. Lots of speed in Fehoko as he ran a 4.40 in his forty yard sprint at the Stanford pro day for NFL scouts. In 2020 he recorded 61 catches for 1140 yards and 9 touchdowns. In the game against rival UCLA he had 16 catches alone. With Michael Gallop becoming a free agent next season, Fehoko could be in a good position to replace him.

  In the sixth round of the draft Dallas returned to their defensive mode (that's 7 out of 9 picks for the defense, if you're keeping count) when they returned to Kentucky for additional line help.

Quinton Bohanna was the 192 overall pick in this years draft and stands 6 foot 4 and tips the scales at 357 pounds. In 2020 Bohanna had 58 tackles for the Wildcats, 9 and a half behind the line of scrimmage. He also forced two fumbles and recovered one of them. Cowboy coaches say they see him as a nose tackle and a sure run stopper. Kentucky coaches say he is the sleeper of the draft and should have gone much higher in the selection process.

   With their seventh and final pick, Dallas found a player to help with the injuries to the offensive line last year. Guard Matt Farniok of the University of Nebraska..

   Farniok is 6 foot 6 and 330 pounds. He is a two time team captain for the Huskers and has started every game for the past two seasons at Lincoln. Nebraska coaches say he is a great blocker in the running game. A couple of times injuries forced Nebraska to use Farniok at the center position and he came through with flying colors. He was named to the All Big 10 Conference honor team and Nebraska named him their offensive lineman of the year in 2020.

   That completes the 2021 NFL draft for the Cowboys, but coaches have already fanned out across the country searching for free agents to help the team. Rumors have it that two wide receivers (one from Texas and one from Texas Tech) have already signed with Dallas. We wish all the players good luck as they move to the professional game. With the return of quarterback Dak Prescott from his major injury last year, the team can only get better..... Please !

Dallas Cowboys 2020 College Draft

       The 2020 NFL College Draft was a unique one right off the bat. Thanks to the Cornavirus there was no big celebration facility thanks to the quarantine in effect. The big loser in this decision is the city of Las Vegas, who was scheduled to host this year's event.

Dallas went into the draft with definite holes to fill, especially on the defensive side of the ball. All-Pro Cornerback Byron Jones, All-Pro End-Rusher Robert Quinn, and safety Jeff Heath were all lost to free agency. All-Pro Center Travis Frederick's sudden retirement was another vacancy that needed attention, but defense was definitely on everyone's mind as the 2020 draft got underway.

The Cowboys had the 17th pick in the first round of the draft, and watched in amazement as early choices went for offensive linemen and quarterbacks. The player that was forecast to be the fifth or sixth overall pick in the draft kept falling...and fell right into the lap of America's Team.

      CeeDee Lamb was too good a prize for the Cowboys to pass on and he became the number one draft pick for Dallas. Lamb is 6 foot 2 inches tall and weighs in at 190 pounds. He played three years for the Oklahoma Sooners and recorded 173 catches for 3,292 yards and 32 touchdowns. Coaches say he never had a catch of less than 20 yards. He completed a steller career at Norman, Oklahoma with 62 catches for 1,327 yards and 14 touchdowns as a senior. He will give the Cowboys an awesome triplet of receivers as he joins Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup as targets for Dak Prescott.

    In the 2nd round of the draft, Dallas had the 51st overall pick and quickly resumed that defensive shopping list. Cornerback Travon Diggs of the University of Alabama heard his name called by the commissioner with this pick.

    Diggs is the younger brother of Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stephon Diggs, so look forward to that meeting in the future. Travon is 6 foot 2 and 207 pounds, and an arm length of 33 inches. He originally was a wide receiver in high school, but Bama converted him to a defensive back in 2017 and he has grown into the position. Diggs started all 12 games for the Tide his senior year and recorded 20 tackles, 3 pass interceptions, and 8 pass break-ups. Second team All-American and first team All-SEC. Should compete for starting job with the Cowboys.

   Round three rolled around and Dallas had the 82nd overall pick. They returned to Norman, Oklahoma for defensive line help when they selected tackle Neville Gallimore from the Sooners.

   Gallimore is 6 foot 2 and tips the scale at 304 pounds. OU Coaches describe him as 'stocky and steady' with tremendous upper body strength. He uses his hands to deny offensive linemen from getting a grip on him with a quick pop. He is extremely quick off the line and sometimes looks like he precedes the snap. Gallimore played all four years for the Sooners and was hardly ever in the training room for injuries.

   Round 4 found the Cowboys again in Oklahoma,..but not in Norman. From the University of Tulsa, Dallas picked Cornerback Reggie Robinson. He is 6 foot 1 and weighs in at 205.

   Robinson was a 4 year starter for the Golden Hurricane and being a Cowboy means he will be returning home. He is from Cleburne, just 40 miles south of the Metroplex. Robinson was a First Team All-Conference performer in 2019 with 4 interceptions and 17 pass deflections his senior year.

     If indeed the Cowboys had a need at corner, they suddenly find themselves with a crowd looking for playing time. 2019 starter Chidobe Awuzie, Jourdan Lewis, Anthony Brown, and Maurice Canady are already on the roster, but Awuzie, Lewis, and Canady are in the last year of their contract with Dallas.

    Dallas also had a second pick in the fourth round as they made a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles. The Cowboys gave up the 164th pick in the 5th round and a future 5th round pick to move up to the 146th pick, the last selection in the 4th round... and Dallas got the center they needed.

     The Cowboys picked Tyler Bladasz, a 6 foot 4 mammoth of a man, tipping the scales at 315. He anchored a Wisconsin Badger offensive line that produced over six thousand yards rushing over the last three seasons. Bladasz is the Rimington Award Winner, which annually goes to the top center in the country.

   Bladasz obviously was an All-American and All-Big Ten selection, and coaches say he was almost another coach on the field. Dallas was shocked when current center Travis Frederick, who played at Wisconsin, announced his retirement earlier this year...but the All-Pro is still fighting the after effects of Guillain-Barre Syndrome, which forced Frederick to miss the entire 2018 season. Bladasz said he tailored his game after watching Frederick on film, and Wisconsin coaches said the two were almost identical in their play.

    Round 5 rolled around and the Cowboys again went shopping for defensive help on the line when they chose Bradlee Anae.

   Anae is 6 foot 3 and at 257 pounds could be a little light for defensive end in the NFL. His hands are said to be 10 inches across. As a freshman in his first collegiate game at the University of Utah he recorded 4 tackles and two sacks of the quarterback. As a senior he led the team with 41 tackles, 13 of those behind the line of scrimmage. 

  He played all 14 games his senior year at Utah and helped the team make a Bowl Game appearance.

   The Cowboys did NOT have a pick in the 6th round, but in the 7th round with the 231st selection Dallas went for a quarterback..

    Ben Dinucci started his collegiate career at the University of Pittsburgh, but lost his starting spot and transferred to James Madison University for his final two seasons.

    Dinucci passed for 3,441 yards for 29 touchdowns against only 6 interceptions in a year and a half for James Madison. As a collegian he completed 70% of his passing attempts while leading James Madison to the FCS National Championship, which was played just down the road from Cowboy headquarters.

     Big Ben is 6 foot 3 inches tall and tips the scales at 210 pounds. Coaches at both schools were impressed with his vision on the field and his strong arm. Not to be left out, he can also run with the ball when his receivers are covered..

That closes out the draft for the Dallas Cowboys, and media reports have Dallas with the best draft among the 32 teams in the NFL. They seem to have not only filled their needs, but accomplished it with quality players. Now the team coaches will fan out across the country looking for undrafted free agents. Tony Romo and Drew Pearson both came to the Cowboys that way. Good Luck to all the players and we wish them good health and long careers... How 'bout them Cowboys! 

Good-bye to My Best Pal

      My dog died this week and I am having a tough time getting past his passing. He was more than just a dog. He was always by my side and never more than an arm's length away. Whether I was gone five minutes or five hours, I always got the same excited welcome when I returned home.. This is Cosmo,.who lived to be eleven and a half years old.

     Yeah, he is a miniature Schnauzer and I have owned a lot of them. Cos was the most intelligent and devoted.. In early 2009 we decided to get another dog. At first I gave some thought to buying a West Highland Terrier,..you know that cute little white dog on the dog food packages. I even contacted a breeder in McKinney and made arrangements to view her latest litter. On the day of the meeting we got word of a litter of Schnauzers just over the river in Oklahoma.. We checked them out and the group of four girls and one boy greeted us upon arrival. The females had all been spoken for and we agreed on the male. He was ten weeks old when we got him in March and his papers showed him being born Christmas Eve of 2008. He was shaggy when he came home with us, but Momma kept insisting she saw loving eyes deep in those long eye brows..

     Momma gave him his first haircut and the famous 'Cosmo look' came to the surface..

    The American Kennel Club says Schnauzers should be black, silver, or black and silver. Cos met that last description. His warm brown eyes were always loving and eager to please. As a puppy, I can't remember him ever making an accident indoors. When he got the hang of going outside to do his business, sometimes he would even bring me the leash to let me know it was time to go out.

    Schnauzers are hearty dogs and at every check-up the vet would pronounce him in great health.
In the early years Cosmo would go to the groomer to get 'gussied up' and he always came home looking like a million bucks.

    I was always extremely proud of Cos and one of my friends even commissioned an artist to make a carving of Cos as a surprise gift.. The different types of wood are just the thing to show-off the various shadings of Cos.

     One of the professional groomers clipped his ear and brought some blood to the surface. After that Cos never went back to the groomer and Momma became his private groomer...and she showed yet another talent.

    When we made our trips outdoors, Cos would always give the scene a once over and if anything had changed since the last time out, he would notice it. He had the eyes of an eagle and hearing beyond belief.
   When I retired from work I became a lot more of a couch potato than I expected. At the end of the day when we settled down to watch TV, Cos would be right by my side, but not necessarily interested in the TV program.

     Cos and I both claim our German heritage and it was a bond that could not be broken...even by a little bad weather..

    Around the first of this month he developed a cough and it got worse and worse. A trip to the vet told us he had congestion in his heart that was backing up into his lungs. The doctor gave me some medicine that I mixed with yogurt and Cos lapped it up like candy. The next couple of days he showed marked improvement but then the cough came back. A second trip to the vet and this time a shot of steroids and a different type of medicine. He showed no sign of improvement and kept us up a couple of nights with his constant cough. Monday, April 6th, I returned to the vet and we both came to the same conclusion. One shot to make him relax and I held him tight in my arms. I could feel him take his first deep breath in over a week.. Then another needle into a vein on his leg. All this time I was whispering in his ear how I appreciated and loved him. I told him not to stray too far from the Rainbow Bridge because that's where I will be looking for him when my time comes.. Thanks for the love Cosmo..
