It is the annual season of unbridled optimism for most NFL franchises (sorry, Jets). One reason is that crop of bright, shiny draft picks that has just arrived. The simple fact is that most organizations and fan bases get a little too enamored of the players they selected. Disappointment often sets in later. The Dallas Cowboys are not really different from most clubs, with one notable exception: They have been very good at drafting in the past several years. Those results, largely creditable to the not-so-secret weapon named Will McClay, give us a bit more reason to have hope that this group could work out.
What grade do you think the Cowboys 2016 draft gets now?
