Dallas Cowboys

A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cowboys: B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Cowboys started one anyway for Nick Nash, 59 picks ahead of schedule.

The Skattebo value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Ashton Jeanty · RB · rank 2
In No. 12 they get a workhorse for the backfield, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Jalon Walker · LB · rank 24
Jalon Walker at pick No. 44 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Tai Felton · WR · rank 91
The board had cheaper options than Tai Felton at Round 3, Pick 12, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.11 · Pick 148 · Jay Higgins · LB · rank 121
The board fumbled Jay Higgins all the way to pick 148, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.31 · Pick 168 · Cam Skattebo · RB · rank 113
A running back of that caliber at the Round 5 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R5.33 · Pick 170 · Michael Taaffe · S · rank 149
Michael Taaffe at the 170th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R5.34 · Pick 171 · Ricardo Hallman · CB · rank 208
They talked themselves into Ricardo Hallman at pick No. 171, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.12 · Pick 187 · Nick Nash · WR · rank 246
A wild overpay on Nick Nash in pick 187, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R6.34 · Pick 209 · Jack Kiser · LB · rank 191
Steal is underselling it; Jack Kiser at the 209th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R7.31 · Pick 247 · Hunter Wohler · S · rank 216
They will replay Hunter Wohler at slot 247 for years; that is how good the value is. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
