Dallas Cowboys

Best value of the weekend goes to the Cowboys for Parrish: B-.

Future D-

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jacob Parrish, the No. 125 name on the board, stolen at the 174th pick.

They will need Griffith to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Tetairoa McMillan · WR · rank 9
In the 12th overall pick they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.20 · Pick 52 · Jonah Savaiinaea · OT · rank 47
Jonah Savaiinaea at Round 2, Pick 20 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.7 · Pick 71 · TreVeyon Henderson · RB · rank 55
A tidy bit of business in the 71st pick, where TreVeyon Henderson graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Omarr Norman-Lott · DT · rank 70
Omarr Norman-Lott in slot 76 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.29 · Pick 93 · Barrett Carter · LB · rank 80
A slide stopped in No. 93, with Barrett Carter worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.10 · Pick 111 · Isaiah Bond · WR · rank 75
Somehow Isaiah Bond was still sitting there in pick 111, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.11 · Pick 150 · Hollin Pierce · OT · rank 113
Hollin Pierce at the Round 5 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.31 · Pick 170 · Mitchell Evans · TE · rank 142
A tight end of that caliber at pick No. 170 is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R5.33 · Pick 172 · Kurtis Rourke · QB · rank 135
They barely believed it either: Kurtis Rourke still on the board at pick No. 172. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.35 · Pick 174 · Jacob Parrish · CB · rank 125
You do not let a cornerback like Jacob Parrish reach slot 174 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.12 · Pick 190 · Pat Bryant · WR · rank 141
They robbed the room for Pat Bryant here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.33 · Pick 211 · Clay Webb · OG · rank 245
Clay Webb in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.31 · Pick 249 · Thor Griffith · DL · rank 295
They reached into another round for Thor Griffith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
