Cowboys select Mazi Smith with No. 26 pick in NFL draft​


The Dallas Cowboys Dpdid something in the NFL draft's first round Thursday they have not done since early in Jerry Jones' tenure as owner and general manager, select a defensive tackle. With the 26th overall pick, the Cowboys selected Michigan run stopper Mazi Smith, the first defensive tackle Dallas has taken in the first round since Russell Maryland went No. 1 overall in 1991. The Cowboys hope Smith can help shore up a run defense that was ranked 22nd in the NFL in 2022, giving up 129.3 yards per game. In McCarthy's three years as Cowboys coach, the Cowboys have ranked 23rd, 19th and 20th in run defense.

Dallas Cowboys 2023 NFL draft picks, depth chart, analysis​


The 2023 NFL draft was held Thursday through Saturday in downtown Kansas City, Missouri. ESPN provided pick-by-pick analysis of each of the Dallas Cowboys’ selections:

No.26: (DT) Nazi Smith, Michigan...For years, folks have clamored for the Cowboys to take a run-stuffing defensive tackle. That wish finally came true as the team departed from its pattern, picking a first-round defensive tackle for the first time since 1991.

No.58: (TE) Luke Schoonmaker, Michigan...He can do what the Cowboys want from their tight ends, working on the line as well as displaced.

No.90: (ILB) DeMarvion Overshown, Texas...He played multiple positions at Texas, but the Cowboys will view him as a weak-side linebacker in DC Quinn’s scheme.

No.129: (DL) Vilami Fehoko, San Jose State...Dan Quinn loves Fehoko's game and the Cowboys are going by the maxim that you can never have enough pass-rushers. In his career, he had 47 tackles for loss, 23 sacks, 11 pass deflections and five forced fumbles.

No.169: (OL) Asim Richardson, North Carolina...He played mostly left tackle at North Carolina, but the Cowboys envision him as a tackle/guard type. The open spot currently on the line is at left guard.

No.178: (DB) Eric Scott, Southern Miss...At 6-1, 204 pounds, he has the look of a cornerback Quinn wants.

No.212: (RB) Deuce Vaughn, Kansas State...Vaughn led all FBS running backs last year with 1,936 yards and he had 43 touchdowns, 3,604 yards rushing and 1,280 yards receiving. He will not be asked to be an every-down back for the Cowboys.

No.244: (WR) Halen Brooks, South Carolina...He caught 33 passes for 504 yards and a touchdown in his final season at South. He was a combine invite and ran a 4.69 40.

Where will the Cowboys use Tyler Smith? 'Just tell me where to go, and I'll go'
When the Cowboys selected Smith, the idea was to let him work at left guard while knowing he is the left tackle of the future. Then Tyron Smith suffered a hamstring injury that required surgery at the end of training camp and Tyler Smith became the left tackle of the present.

What did rookie TE Luke Schoomaker learn from TE Jason Witten?
Schoonmaker found himself looking into Jason Witten. He knew of Witten, who was named to 11 Pro Bowls in his 16 years with the Cowboys and became the franchise leader in receptions (1,215) and yards (12,977).

******
At Michigan, Schoonmaker caught just 54 passes for 637 yards and seven touchdowns in 44 games.

Cowboys VP Stephen Jones not worried about re-signing stars
The Dallas Cowboys will face a salary cap challenge when it comes to signing Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, Trevon Diggs and eventually Micah Parsons to lucrative contract extensions.
 

Cowboys' Tony Pollard says he'll be cleared for training camp​


By the time the Dallas Cowboys report to Oxnard, California, in late July for training camp, Pro Bowl running back Tony Pollard said he will be fully ready to practice from the left ankle injury he suffered in the January playoff loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Pollard said he actually feels ready now. Pollard has taken first-team snaps during walk-through portions of organized team activities. Next week, the Cowboys hold their mandatory minicamp, but he is expected to remain on the same rehab plan.

Pollard enters his fifth season in a new role as the Cowboys' lead running back, with Ezekiel Elliott released at the start of the offseason. The Cowboys signed veteran Ronald Jones II in free agency and added Deuce Vaughn in the sixth round of the draft, while also having Malik Davis and Rico Dowdle on the roster. Pollard was named to the Pro Bowl after rushing for a career-high 1,007 yards on 193 carries with nine touchdowns. He also caught 39 passes for 371 yards and three touchdowns. Before last season he never had more than 130 carries or 719 rushing yards in a season.
