Dallas Cowboys NFL draft picks 2024: Full list of team's round-by-round selections
Here is a 2024 NFL draft pick-by-pick breakdown for the Dallas Cowboys:
Round 1 (No. 29 overall, from Lions) — Tyler Guyton, OT, Oklahoma: A former tight end, the 6-8, 322-pounder is an exceptional athlete for his size. He's relatively inexperienced from a playing time perspective but should have an opportunity to immediately fill the left tackle post vacated by Tyron Smith. If not, 2022 first-rounder Tyler Smith can fill in there until Guyton is ready. Draft tracker
Round 2 (56) — Marshawn Kneeland, DE, Western Michigan: Dallas continues to invest in the trenches after getting raided there during free agency. Kneeland displays the athleticism of a former tight end if also the inexperience of a relative newcomer to the D-line. He averaged 3½ sacks and 9.3 TFLs over the past three seasons. Draft tracker
Round 3 (73, from Vikings through Lions) — Cooper Beebe, G, Kansas State: More reinforcements for an offensive line that needs them. Beebe could play guard or center depending on how things shake out here, especially if first-rounder Tyler Guyton isn't ready to play. Draft tracker
Round 3 (87) — Marist Liufau, LB, Notre Dame: A versatile player but one who could solve what's been a problem area at the second level in Dallas lately. Draft tracker
Round 5 (174, compensatory selection) — Caelen Carson, CB, Wake Forest: Carson missed 11 games over the last three years with the Demon Deacons. Injury concerns aside, he's a versatile NFL cornerback with ideal size and athleticism. If he stays healthy, he could become a solid starter for the Cowboys at a great value. Draft tracker
Round 6 (216, compensatory selection) — Ryan Flournoy, WR, Southeast Missouri State: Flournoy's a height-weight-speed athlete who showed off against Ohio Valley Conference competition. His tape against Iowa State and Kansas State weren't bad and he already has the tools as a rotational wide receiver, something rare to find this late in the draft. Draft tracker
Round 7 (233, from Raiders) — Nathan Thomas, OT, Louisiana: Thomas has the tools to be a solid tackle. His size, above-average wingspan, and massive hands make him strong at the point of attack. He needs time to develop his discipline and better technique but the Cowboys could provide the infrastructure to do that. Draft tracker
Round 7 (244) — Justin Rogers, DT, Auburn: Rogers' powerful, compact frame makes him hard to move off the line. He lacks the range to make a big difference in the run game but can take up enough blockers to open opportunities for others. He'll likely have an early-down role in the league and can shore things up for the Cowboys. Draft tracker
