Dallas Cowboys

A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Cowboys shredded theirs for Braelon Allen. He came off 47 spots early, and the room will hear about it. No fireworks, but a solid B.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Clark. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.4 · Pick 36 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 41
No drama and no debate, Tyler Guyton went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 59
By-the-book stuff, Edgerrin Cooper at pick No. 56 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.24 · Pick 87 · Roman Wilson · WR · rank 82
Roman Wilson in the 87th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Sedrick Van Pran · C · rank 90
Sedrick Van Pran at No. 92 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 131
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Cedric Gray well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.4 · Pick 104 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 151
A real head-scratcher, Braelon Allen in Round 4, Pick 4 is miles ahead of his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.24 · Pick 124 · Kris Abrams-Draine · CB · rank 118
A tidy little value on Kris Abrams-Draine in the 124th pick, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.38 · Pick 174 · Josh Proctor · S · rank 183
A conviction pick on Josh Proctor at the 174th overall pick that the board grades a round light. A minor itch, scratched.
R6.13 · Pick 188 · Nathan Thomas · OT · rank 171
A tidy bit of business in pick 188, where Nathan Thomas graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.37 · Pick 212 · Taulia Tagovailoa · QB · rank 220
Taulia Tagovailoa in pick No. 212 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.3 · Pick 223 · De'Corian Clark · WR · rank 195
Circle this one: De'Corian Clark at Round 7, Pick 3 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.25 · Pick 245 · Jordan Whittington · WR · rank 263
Value said wait; Jordan Whittington in slot 245 says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
