Dallas Cowboys 2018 NFL Draft tracker and highlights
By Erik Lambert
The Dallas Cowboys 2018 NFL draft tracker is going to be an active one what with the team holding nine picks total going into the action.
They’re also a team that is loaded with question marks. This is amazing to think about considering they were 13-3 just two years ago and looked like a Super Bowl champion in waiting. Now the Philadelphia Eagles are the powerhouse of the NFC East and it looks like the Cowboys might be in danger of a looming slider. Many of their great veterans are either gone or aging fast.
Dak Prescott failed to improve on his rookie season while Ezekiel Elliott battled suspension. This on top of the defense continues to underachieve. Jason Garrett remains safe at head coach but it feels like his seat is starting to warm up unless he can get this team playing winning football again. To do that they must have a good draft with multiple quality players coming out of it.
Below, Cowboys fans will find everything they need for draft night, including their picks, roster needs, and any trades made during the 2018 NFL Draft.
