Dallas Cowboys: Will Taco Charlton deliver on his draft pedigree?

The reviews on the Dallas Cowboys first round pick in the 2017 NFL draft were generally very positive. Fox Sports, Sports Illustrated, Walter Football, NFL.com and the Ringer all gave instant analysis with a grade better than B.

Now two years later, most Cowboys fans lament passing on current Pittsburgh Steeler edge rusher T.J. Watt for former Michigan defensive end Vidauntae “Taco” Charlton. Watt has twenty career sacks compared to Charlton’s four after two seasons.

NFL.com recently regraded the 2017 first round and passed out a D- to the Cowboys.
