This would certainly give Mike McCarthy no excuses in the final year of his contract, and the second year calling the offense for the Cowboys.
Round 1, Pick 24: Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon
Before diving into the exciting picks, the Cowboys use their first-round selection on Oregon center Jackson Powers-Johnson. Adding an offensive lineman is never a splashy move but as we’ve seen with Tyron Smith, Zack Martin, and Tyler Smith, it often leads to success for this front office.
With Tyler Biadasz entering free agency, the Cowboys find a way to upgrade the position with this selection.
