Lots of Dallas Cowboys fans hated the team’s first pick in the NFL Draft

Dallas Cowboys fans had to wait a long time for their team to have a pick (thanks to that Amari Cooper trade) in the 2019 NFL Draft and then when they finally picked somebody, lots of those fans were not exactly happy with the selection.

The Cowboys selected UCF defensive tackle Trysten Hill with the 58th overall pick. Hill could be a force in the league and our own Steven Ruiz gave the Cowboys a B+ for the selection.

But a lot of Cowboys fans wanted to see the team go in a different direction and get a safety,  like Virginia’s Juan Thornhill.

And they took to Twitter to sound off:

WE NEEDED A SAFETY

Hope he can play safety.

Adderley, Thornhill, Thompson, Rapp…how did we seriously mess this up??

HUH THORNHILL IS ON THE BOARD STILL

DT? Really? You do realize we need a Saftey, Yes? When will they hold a New Owner/Coach Draft Pick? @FOX4

But we need to win now tho… D-Line take fooooreeeeveeeer to develop. Take Tank for example, he is a super star but how many years has he been in the NFL???

Not with drafting like this…

@dallascowboys Trysten Hill better not only slay, but he better get INTs too! Understand they don’t make up championships in the NFL for undefeated records!

There was a 1st round safety on the board and Cowboys go with a DT

Almost as embarrassing as Daniel Jones.

Agreed. This is one of the worst decisions of the draft. Even if he turns out halfway decent they are now screwed at saftey

Some fans did try to talk to talk some sense:

Relax, everyone freaked out over LVE last year and that worked out pretty well.. One thing the Cowboys do well is draft.. Everyone wanted a DT after the Rams game, we got one now…

— STRESSED COWBOYS FAN (@Jxhnny_O) April 27, 2019

Cowboys always draft well so any true fans complaining are idiots y’all don’t know more than them clearly

— McCoyINC (@TrevanJamalMcC) April 27, 2019

Has everyone forgotten the Rams playoff game where they ran up and down the field on us? With Irvin gone due to retirment we had serious depth issues. This is a good pick. There are still some safeties on the board we can swing back around to get.

Don’t get how y’all are upset with this pick. Lmao.
