Call it larceny. TreVeyon Henderson sat on the board until No. 148, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice.
The Howard pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.
Bottom line, with Tetairoa McMillan leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.
Pick-by-Pick
Tetairoa McMillan at the 13th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
A safety of that caliber at the 47th pick is the definition of value, full stop. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Jalon Walker at slot 78 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
They liked Rylie Mills enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 4 slot. It fills a real need, too.
TreVeyon Henderson in Round 5, Pick 10 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Jake Majors at pick No. 151 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
They will replay Harold Perkins Jr. at No. 168 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Taking Keon Sabb in pick 170 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Lander Barton in slot 171 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Will Howard in pick 189 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
A premium they did not need to pay, Quincy Riley a notch or two before his time. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Somehow Terrance Ferguson was still sitting there in the 248th overall pick, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A need, and now a little less of one.
