B-
Dallas Cowboys
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Cowboys.

2024 NFL Draft
· 7 picks
· 3 steals
· 2 reaches
The board owed the Cowboys one, and it paid up: Isaiah Williams, the No. 180 name on the board, sitting there at pick 216 like a gift left on the doorstep.
The cost of the Anderson reach is exactly the players who went right after him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick-by-Pick
In slot 24 they get a problem off the edge, and a steal at that.
They took Payton Wilson at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
A big swing on Blake Fisher at the 87th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Isaiah Davis in pick 174 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
A wide receiver of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Tayvion Robinson at slot 233 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
A real head-scratcher, Evan Anderson in No. 244 is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
