Plenty of people have been critical of the Cowboys wide receivers this season Robert Newhouse Jersey Stitched , but Cole Beasley has been adamant that they are not the problem that others make them out to be.Given that feeling, one might imagine that Beasley would frown on the team’s decision to trade a first-round pick to the Raiders for Amari Cooper. Beasley is welcoming his new teammate with open arms, however.Beasley said he’s “glad we did something to add to us” and thinks that Cooper will make the offense more dangerous when it returns to the field in Week Nine. Beasley said Cooper’s addition should help running back Ezekiel Elliott, although he’s less sure about what it will mean for him as an individual.“I don’t know, we will find out. Hopefully, a lot,” Beasley said, via the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “I have been all right without it so … If it’s any easier for me Youth Daryl Johnston Jersey , the defense is going to be in trouble.”Beasley’s set for free agency after this year, so any boost he gets from Cooper’s presence could help him come the offseason as well.

The Cowboys went into it with six picks and exited with eight thanks to consecutive trade downs that started in the fourth round. There was wide disagreement over the picks and strategy here at BTB, so it’s always good to take a look at what some outsiders thought. In this case, we’ll get a grade from Mel Kiper and a best pick from Todd McShay.Mel Kiper grade:While a B- grade might not seem bad, in the overall context of Kiper’s grading system Daryl Johnston Jersey Stitched , it’s not good. He gave out one A, four A-, six B+, nine B, five B- and seven C+. So the Cowboys ended up around the bottom third of the league Here is his evaluation.Let’s unpack this. First of all, I would take issue with his top needs. Defensive tackle and safety were certainly top needs, but wide receiver? You’ve got three quality starters and several capable backups. That makes me suspicious of the grade immediately.On the other hand, many observers (including me) Youth Chuck Howley Jersey , lamented the fact that the Cowboys came out of the draft without a top safety prospect. Trysten Hill may end up being a quality pick, and defensive tackle is certainly an area of need. It’s hard to ding the Cowboys too much here, but Juan Thornhill would have been my pick. Still, this is just a preference thing. The fact that the Cowboys had such a high grade on Connor McGovern precluded them from grabbing a safety in the third round. If you are a true believer in BPA, then you can’t argue against the McGovern pick since the Cowboys have said he was the highest-rated player by far left on their board. The fourth round is where things got sideways. With two picks (128 and 136) so close, it was all about the order of the players. The Cowboys went with Tony Pollard first and lost out on targets they had at 136. There’s a belief they could have waited on Pollard and still got him at 136 since he was projected to go lower than the fourth round. On the other hand, as we’ll see below, there are some who really like the Pollard pick. From that point Chuck Howley Jersey Stitched , the Cowboys traded down and down, eventually grabbing a haul of players with final pick Jalen Jelks seeming to draw “steal” commentary from quite a few places.Now, Todd McShay’s favorite pick for the Cowboys.Pollard was the pick that caused some of the controversy for the Cowboys. Could he have been taken at 136 instead of 128? This would have allowed the Cowboys to grab their rumored crushes, John Cominsky or Isaiah Johnson, and then circle back for Pollard.If Pollard does what he was drafted to do, we might not be worried about this in years to come. As has been mentioned, this is the “Kellen Moore” pick. Scott Linehan was notorious for talking a good game about using players in different potions and in different ways (see Tavon Austin from last year) only to resort to his tried-and-true scheme without trying much new. Everybody is hoping this will change under Kellen Moore. Pollard will be exhibit A if that happens. As noted, he is one of the most versatile players in the draft with the ability to be a running back or slot receiver and to play special teams. The Cowboys have been one of the few remaining “workhorse” running back teams that relies solely on one guy and really don’t utilize a variety of weapons from their running back corps. Elliott will still be the workhorse Youth Randy White Jersey , he just too good not to be, but the hope is Moore can incorporate Pollard into the offense and freshen things up a bit.If that happens, then Pollard will justify his draft selection.
