Cowboys nailed Day 1 of 2024 NFL Draft with their trade and Tyler Guyton pick

The Cowboys absolutely nailed Night 1 of the NFL Draft.

Sometimes the thing that makes the most sense makes the most sense for a reason. The possibility of the Dallas Cowboys trading out of their first-round selection at 24 long held merit due to their lack of draft capital in a serious sense. At the draft’s beginning, Dallas only held three top 100 selections but would quickly get to work on improving that.

While on the clock at 24 the Cowboys worked the phones and found a suitor. The draft’s host team, the Detroit Lions, felt inclined to jump up...

The Cowboys moved back and still landed a left tackle

It took a little longer than we initially expected, but the Cowboys finally made a selection in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. It was a first round full of twists and turns, with six quarterbacks going in the first 12 picks and no defensive player being drafted in the first 14 picks.

By the time Dallas was on the clock, they had their pick of all the centers in the draft class, as well as several options at tackle. Instead of picking whoever their hearts desired, the...

How do you think the Cowboys did on Day 1 of the NFL Draft?

The Dallas Cowboys have made their selection in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. They didn’t pick at 24 where they were originally scheduled. Instead, they traded back with the Detroit Lions and picked up an extra third-round pick, number 73 overall.

When they finally got on the board at pick 29, they chose offensive tackle Tyler Guyton out of Oklahoma. Guyton has been a name associated with the Cowboys at pick 24 the moment Tyron Smith left in free agency. We’ll see if...

Cowboys draft grade: Trade down for an extra 3rd-round pick, take Tyler Guyton at pick 29

Tyler Guyton is the newest member of the Dallas Cowboys!

In the team’s pre-draft press conference, Dallas Cowboys owner and GM Jerry Jones said the team was “all-in” (again) in particular on “young guys” to keep them in contention for the 2024 season. This was on the eve of adding their latest rookie class, which will now include an additional third-round pick as the Cowboys traded the 24th overall pick on Thursday night to the Detroit Lions.

The Cowboys moved away from other offensive line prospects like Jordan Morgan and Graham Barton to take the athletic Tyler Guyton out of...

The 2024 NFL Draft is finally here. Thousands are in attendance and millions will watch the draft around the world.

The draft started as expected when USC QB Caleb Williams was the first name of the evening called to the Chicago Bears.

Washington followed that up with QB Jayden Daniels from LSU and Drake Maye was drafted to the Patriots right behind him.

Three quarterbacks were taken in the first three picks in a 1st round that ended up...

Cowboys draft: Dallas trades pick 24 to the Detroit Lions, moves down to 29

The Dallas Cowboys traded down in the first round with the Detroit Lions.

The Dallas Cowboys have made a move. In a bit of a shocker, with top offensive line targets Graham Barton and Tyler Guyton still on the board, the Cowboys bailed out of their pick at 24 and have moved down in the first round.

Keep track of each Cowboys draft pick here

The Dallas Cowboys are just about to begin adding draft picks to their 2024 roster. After a very slow start to the offseason that included keeping Mike McCarthy, losing Dan Quinn, adding Mike Zimmer, losing multiple free agent starters like Tyron Smith and Tony Pollard, while only adding Erick Kendricks as a starter, the organization has work to do.

That work begins with the 2024 NFL Draft and the Cowboys currently hold seven picks in the draft. Below are the Cowboys picks unless they get involved in trading up or down.

The Cowboys have had their misses over the last decade of drafting. Here are the 10 worst disappointments.

Over the last decade of NFL drafts, the Dallas Cowboys have done better than many teams in consistently adding talent. But they’ve also had their disappointments, and ahead of this year’s draft starting, we’re going to look back on the 10 worst picks that Dallas has had since 2014.

What makes a bad draft pick? It’s a balance between how high a player was selected and how little he contributed. For example, a first-round pick not making it to his fourth season...

Why Trey Lance could be a bargaining chip for Cowboys during draft

Why Trey Lance could be a bargaining chip for Cowboys during draft

Before taking a snap with the Cowboys, Lance could offer a return on the team’s investment

Heading into the NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys are one of the enigmas. Sure, no one expects the Cowboys to capture headlines by making a big trade to move up in the draft or acquire a marquee player from another franchise, but the Cowboys could make a trade during the draft to auction off one of their players, Trey Lance.

Some have suggested the Cowboys would be better suited to move on from Dak Prescott, who at this point in the offseason doesn’t have...
