The Cowboys looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Trey Moore at the Round 5 slot regardless, 29 picks early.

On value alone, Wheatley makes the weekend a net positive. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.28 · Pick 28 · Anthony Hill Jr. · LB · rank 39
They liked Anthony Hill Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in the 28th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Caleb Banks · DL · rank 41
By-the-book stuff, Caleb Banks at the 37th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Zion Young · DE-EDGE · rank 42
A straight-up fair deal on Zion Young at pick 38, value and slot in agreement. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · Caleb Tiernan · OT · rank 54
A premium they did not need to pay, Caleb Tiernan a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.28 · Pick 92 · Daylen Everette · CB · rank 81
Daylen Everette slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.12 · Pick 112 · Zakee Wheatley · S · rank 89
They barely believed it either: Zakee Wheatley still on the board at Round 4, Pick 12. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R5.12 · Pick 152 · Trey Moore · LB-EDGE · rank 181
Trey Moore in pick No. 152 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R5.37 · Pick 177 · Kaleb Elarms-Orr · LB · rank 178
Kaleb Elarms-Orr in the 177th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.40 · Pick 180 · Dae'Quan Wright · TE · rank 186
Dae'Quan Wright at pick 180 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.2 · Pick 218 · Chase Roberts · WR · rank 213
Chase Roberts at the 218th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
