Dallas Cowboys

A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: T.J. Sanders, 55 picks early at Round 5, Pick 31.

The King pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.19 · Pick 19 · Walter Nolen · DT · rank 18
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Walter Nolen. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 21
They robbed the room for Omarion Hampton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Rylie Mills · DL · rank 114
They talked themselves into Rylie Mills at pick 78, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.19 · Pick 83 · Jay Higgins · LB · rank 74
Jay Higgins slid further than he should have, and slot 83 is lovely value for the linebacker. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.16 · Pick 117 · DJ Campbell · OG · rank 128
They liked DJ Campbell enough to skip the value, taking him in the 117th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.15 · Pick 153 · Antonio Williams · WR · rank 142
Antonio Williams at No. 153 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.19 · Pick 157 · PJ Williams · OT · rank 197
A swing that ignored the value entirely, PJ Williams well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.31 · Pick 169 · T.J. Sanders · DT · rank 224
T.J. Sanders in the Round 5 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
R5.32 · Pick 170 · Henry Parrish Jr. · RB · rank 172
By-the-book stuff, Henry Parrish Jr. at the 170th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R5.33 · Pick 171 · Shemar Turner · DL-EDGE · rank 163
Shemar Turner in pick 171 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R6.14 · Pick 189 · Joey Slackman · DL · rank 215
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Joey Slackman. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.33 · Pick 208 · Gentry Williams · CB · rank 187
Gentry Williams in the 208th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.19 · Pick 233 · Haynes King · QB · rank 206
A quarterback of that caliber at slot 233 is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
