Overall

FutureB-
The Cowboys fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. The real work happened on the phones. The Cowboys fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Walker. The cost of the Conner reach is exactly the players who went right after him.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Walter Nolen
In the Round 1 slot they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. A real need, handled.
Pick44
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at pick No. 44 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick51
Rnd2
Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins in pick 51 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick76
Rnd3
Elic Ayomanor
A clean, defensible pick in slot 76 with a little surplus value in Elic Ayomanor. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick85
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at Round 3, Pick 21 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick149
Rnd5
O'Donnell Fortune
No drama and no debate, O'Donnell Fortune went about where he belonged in the 149th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jack Nelson
A premium they did not need to pay, Jack Nelson a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick204
Rnd6
Jason Marshall Jr.
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jason Marshall Jr.. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick211
Rnd6
Jordan Hancock
They went early on Jordan Hancock in the Round 6 slot, and the value did not follow. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick217
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in pick 217 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick239
Rnd7
Zeek Biggers
A real head-scratcher, Zeek Biggers in Round 7, Pick 23 is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick247
Rnd7
Hayden Conner
A big swing on Hayden Conner at slot 247, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
