Pollard projected as 6th rounder...... Cowboys take him at 26th pick in 4th (#128 overall).  Seems like a reach -- hope he ends up a stud for Dallas!!

The aggy rb was projected as a 3-4 round pick and is still there. Those projections are not necessarily reliable, though Dallas does seem to prefer taking people they like early rather than risk not getting them.

Radio opinion is that the Cowboys Roster is above average. It may be hard to make the roster and that may scare off some undrafted FA's from signing. So acquiring more picks to secure young bodies, rather than swinging for the fences in the mid-round.

Scouting Report: Michael Jackson

2019 NFL Mock Draft

DraftGeek’s Mock Draft

School: Miami Position: Cornerback Class:Senior Height: 6-1 Weight: 200 Projected Draft Round: 3-5

Scouting Report:

Nice frame, strong, and physical, excels in press coverage and play closer to the line of scrimmage. Able to lock up receivers off of the snap, is at his best when playing in tight press coverage rather than in space or in zone. Brings a plus game against the run and in blitzes, and at the same time can be exposed when asked to cover quicker receivers in space.

They didn’t have a lot of picks in this draft, so I wonder if this was their plan all along, or if they got wiped out after pollard. 

Yep. They don’t want to fight guys over Rookie FAs. And their track record suggests they do really well with these supper late picks and RFA’s.

 

Guys at DT or RB might not choose to sign here because of the depth chart and now they won’t have a choice.

What RB depth? Rod Smith was one of the worst backup running backs I’ve ever seen.

DE J. Jackson Miami

Scouting Report: Joe Jackson

2019 NFL Mock Draft

DraftGeek’s Mock Draft

School: Miami Position: Defensive End Class: Junior Height: 6-5 Weight: 258 Projected Draft Round: 2-4

Scouting Report:

A truly gifted athlete, Jackson has depended on his natural athletic ability so far during his college career. He has excellent length and superb balance that allows him to gain leverage on the edge. As a run defender, he anchors surprisingly well, and has a lot of upside if he can learn to use his feet better. A high upside edge rusher that an NFL team will need a year to develop.

That's the way Day 3 of draft coverage go. ESPN is typically even worse.

This is nothing more than the 2009 draft. No immediate help at all. Nothing but below average depth players. Did not improve the roster at all. Deep safety draft and we didn't pick anyone. Useless trade downs today that accomplished nothing.

They got deeper on O-line, inside DL and Jackson looks like a decent rotational pass rusher, which they needed. It wasn't that bad for having already used their top pick on Cooper. If Cooper reverts to his last couple of seasons in Oakland, then it could be that bad.

Dallas will probably sign a backup RB. They stil don't have one. You don't have a rookie that can't block and was third on his team in rushing on college as your main backup.

Agreed.  He was 2nd on the team in catches and played in the slot at time.  This is more of a Lance Dunbar situation except with elite ST skills.  Austin is on notice.
