Eric Edholm's Commentary
The Tyler Smith buzz started in earnest a few months ago, but his stock really rose in recent weeks. We thought he might still get to Round 2, but with Zion Johnson — a popular Dallas pick — off the board, Smith likely was their next-rated OL prospect. He’s work in progress, no doubt, and quite penalty-prone, but could be dominant in time. He has rare back bend, power and aggressiveness.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
For the second straight year, the Cowboys use a high pick to take a player with significant character concerns. But Williams has great power-rushing ability, able to blast through blockers like few rushers in this class. He's a bulldog of a player with top-50 talent, but the worries about some past off-field incidents remain worries.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
We liked Tolbert more than some other analysts, and we admit his inconsistent hands are a cause for concern. But turn on the Tennessee tape and you'll see that he can get on top of safeties and has been highly productive the past two seasons. He's sort of a poor man's Marvin Jones.
