The Cowboys did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Nicholas Singleton fell into pick No. 209.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.17 · Pick 17 · Tetairoa McMillan · WR · rank 5
Tetairoa McMillan slid further than he should have, and slot 17 is lovely value for the wide receiver. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.17 · Pick 49 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 18
You do not let a running back like Omarion Hampton reach the 49th pick and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R2.23 · Pick 55 · Jihaad Campbell · LB · rank 40
A slide stopped in the Round 2 slot, with Jihaad Campbell worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Omarr Norman-Lott · DT · rank 76
By-the-book stuff, Omarr Norman-Lott at No. 76 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.17 · Pick 118 · Kevin Winston Jr. · S · rank 92
Kevin Winston Jr. in Round 4, Pick 17 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R4.21 · Pick 122 · Jake Majors · C · rank 93
Jake Majors at pick No. 122 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.11 · Pick 148 · Deontae Lawson · LB · rank 81
Deontae Lawson in the 148th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.31 · Pick 168 · Patrick Bryant · WR · rank 144
They will replay Patrick Bryant at pick 168 for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.33 · Pick 170 · Xavier Scott · CB · rank 158
A quiet steal in the 170th pick: Xavier Scott for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.34 · Pick 171 · Lathan Ransom · S · rank 105
They robbed the room for Lathan Ransom here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
R6.12 · Pick 187 · Connor Colby · OG · rank 172
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Connor Colby in pick 187. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R6.34 · Pick 209 · Nicholas Singleton · RB · rank 99
A running back of that caliber at pick No. 209 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.31 · Pick 247 · Jamon Dumas-Johnson · LB · rank 195
They barely believed it either: Jamon Dumas-Johnson still on the board at Round 7, Pick 31. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
