Eric Edholm's Commentary
With the top two corners off the board the previous two picks, this was a tough spot for the Cowboys. So they trade out with … their division rivals? Why, yes! To get ahead of the division rival Giants, of course. Philly must have thought that the Giants were dead set on Smith, sending a third-rounder to Dallas to move up two slots. Smith’s weight (170-ish pounds) will be all the talk, but his play was downright special — for most of the past three years. A fascinating pick.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Dickerson slid because of worrisome medical reports. He’s a first-round talent every day of the week, but four season-ending injuries — including a torn ACL late last season — in a five-year span spooked some team doctors. Still, we’re willing to support this risk, as Dickerson’s tangibles and intangibles are outstanding. It appears he’ll start out his career at guard, where he’s played extensively before.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Williams destroyed his pro day with an absurd workout, and it’s nearly impossible to find a comp for his body style and traits — maybe Solomon Thomas is close? Williams is a tweener but could be an interior penetrator who wins with effort and burst. Can he add weight? He’s a bit on the light side and might need to be slanted into gaps to be effective.
