Follow along with the 2024 NFL Draft and discuss all the moves.

The 2024 NFL Draft rolls along. We continue to track all Dallas Cowboys’ moves.

This is an open thread for draft chat.


Cowboys 2024 draft picks:

  • Round 1, pick 24
  • Round 2, pick 56
  • Round 3, pick 87
  • Round 5, pick 174
  • Round 6, pick 216
  • Round 7, pick 233
  • Round 7, pick 244

There is always the possibility of a trade from the Cowboys. We’ll note any moves made here.


Cowboys needs:

OT: Tyron Smith is no longer the Cowboys left tackle. That is something we haven’t said in a decade. With the All-Pro moving on and no heir-apparent on the roster, unless you count sliding Tyler Smith outside, the team needs a replacement.

C: Tyler Biadasz settled in with Dan Quinn in Washington, leaving a hole in the middle of the line. Brock Hoffman would be the next man up, but bet on the Cowboys bringing in some competition.

RB: No Tony Pollard after he moved on leaves Rico Dowdle as the top guy on the depth chart. There will be a body added here, it’s just unknown how early they will strike.

LB: The Cowboys lost Leighton Vander Esch to a medical retirement. New DC Mike Zimmer likes bigger, more traditional linebackers. They got Eric Kendricks, but they need more.

DT/DE: The defensive line’s depth was thinned out in free agency as Dorance Armstrong, Dante Fowler and Johnathan Hankins all departed. More bodies are required.

CB/WR: These two very important positions always need churning of the depth.
