Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Cowboys, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D+ is the result.

The Coleman pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The Cowboys clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.7 · Pick 7 · Joe Alt · OT · rank 3
In pick No. 7 they get a long-term starter on the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R1.24 · Pick 24 · Dallas Turner · LB-EDGE · rank 14
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a bendy edge with upside, and a steal at that. More want than need.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 15
Somehow Cooper DeJean was still sitting there in the Round 2 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · T'Vondre Sweat · DT · rank 48
T'Vondre Sweat slid further than he should have, and the 56th pick is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.4 · Pick 68 · Jonathon Brooks · RB · rank 44
Steal is underselling it; Jonathon Brooks at No. 68 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.24 · Pick 87 · Keon Coleman · WR · rank 36
Keon Coleman at pick 87 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.37 · Pick 173 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 148
Taking Marist Liufau in the 173rd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R6.9 · Pick 184 · Javion Cohen · OG · rank 168
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Javion Cohen at the 184th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.38 · Pick 213 · Steele Chambers · LB · rank 191
Steele Chambers in Round 6, Pick 38 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R7.11 · Pick 231 · Caedan Wallace · OT · rank 180
They robbed the room for Caedan Wallace here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.22 · Pick 242 · Josh Proctor · S · rank 215
Circle this one: Josh Proctor at slot 242 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
