Cowboys Take CeeDee Lamb
Published:
Could Howie Roseman have traded up?
Perhaps we’ll find out later. Maybe the asking price was too high, or maybe he’s more interested in another player.
The Cowboys took Oklahoma receiver CeeDee Lamb with the 17th pick:

My take:
It’ll be okay. Stand pat at 21, take Justin Jefferson or one of the linebackers, then use your second round pick on whichever position you didn’t take in the first round. Fill two positions of need and people will feel pretty good come Monday morning.
CeeDee Lamb is a great player who played well in some big games, but Big 12 defenses are HORRIBLE and the Cowboys will find a way to keep him from reaching his potential.
Also, Jerry Jones’ drafted from his YACHT, which looks like a Bond villain’s lair:
