The Cowboys went off the board in a big way for LaDarius Henderson, 32 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Rosemy-Jacksaint at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.24 · Pick 24 · Terrion Arnold · CB · rank 21
In slot 24 they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · Graham Barton · OT · rank 50
They did well to land Graham Barton in the 56th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Javion Cohen · OG · rank 151
They talked themselves into Javion Cohen at the 125th pick, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.1 · Pick 137 · LaDarius Henderson · OT · rank 169
LaDarius Henderson in No. 137 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.34 · Pick 170 · Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint · WR · rank 148
They will replay Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at pick No. 170 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.35 · Pick 171 · Layden Robinson · OG · rank 173
A straight-up fair deal on Layden Robinson at Round 5, Pick 35, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.37 · Pick 173 · Curtis Jacobs · LB · rank 185
They paid a round early for Curtis Jacobs in Round 5, Pick 37, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.38 · Pick 213 · Omar Speights · LB · rank 222
Omar Speights at pick No. 213 is a conviction pick that outran the value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.2 · Pick 222 · Darius Muasau · LB · rank 238
Darius Muasau at slot 222 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R7.20 · Pick 240 · Daequan Hardy · CB · rank 241
Daequan Hardy in the Round 7 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.22 · Pick 242 · Josh Wallace · CB · rank 223
They barely believed it either: Josh Wallace still on the board at pick 242. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
