The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named linebacker, a need the Cowboys walked right past.
The Thomas Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.
Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 30th pick they get a blindside protector. The biggest hole, addressed.
Brian Thomas Jr. slipping to slot 62 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
They read the board right and TreVeyon Henderson was the payoff at No. 93. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Khyree Jackson in Round 4, Pick 30 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
By-the-book stuff, Fabien Lovett at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
