The Cowboys clearly saw something nobody else did in Bryson Eason, taking him 56 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.20 · Pick 20 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 30
In slot 20 they get a lead back with juice, reach and all.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Isaiah Bond · WR · rank 55
They paid up for Isaiah Bond at Round 2, Pick 12 when waiting would have done the job. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R2.19 · Pick 51 · Aireontae Ersery · OT · rank 47
A clean, defensible pick in pick 51 with a little surplus value in Aireontae Ersery. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Quinn Ewers · QB · rank 97
They left a pile of value on the table to take Quinn Ewers this early at the 76th overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
R3.21 · Pick 85 · Barrett Carter · LB · rank 83
Barrett Carter in the 85th pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.11 · Pick 150 · Mitchell Evans · TE · rank 145
Mitchell Evans in No. 150 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R5.31 · Pick 170 · Ben Sauls · PK · rank 164
Ben Sauls at the 170th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the specialist. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
R5.33 · Pick 172 · Tommi Hill · CB · rank 136
Tommi Hill in Round 5, Pick 33 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.35 · Pick 174 · Damien Martinez · RB · rank 157
Nice patience on Damien Martinez, who had no business lasting to slot 174. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.12 · Pick 190 · Dorian Strong · CB · rank 169
The board fumbled Dorian Strong all the way to pick No. 190, and they scooped it up. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R6.21 · Pick 199 · Simeon Barrow Jr. · DL · rank 176
Somehow Simeon Barrow Jr. was still sitting there in No. 199, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.33 · Pick 211 · Jaylen Reed · S · rank 183
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Jaylen Reed in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
R7.31 · Pick 249 · Bryson Eason · DT · rank 305
Value said wait; Bryson Eason in pick 249 says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
