You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Cowboys did exactly that with Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in No. 174.

Mondon Jr. falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Ashton Jeanty · RB · rank 2
In the 12th overall pick they get a featured back, outstanding value to boot.
R2.21 · Pick 53 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 30
Taking Omarion Hampton in Round 2, Pick 21 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Jack Bech · WR · rank 71
Jack Bech at No. 76 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.20 · Pick 84 · Savion Williams · WR · rank 98
A reach on Savion Williams in pick 84; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.15 · Pick 116 · Demetrius Knight Jr. · LB · rank 61
Steal is underselling it; Demetrius Knight Jr. at pick No. 116 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.11 · Pick 150 · Malachi Moore · S · rank 95
Malachi Moore in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R5.31 · Pick 170 · Smael Mondon Jr. · LB · rank 110
Smael Mondon Jr. at pick 170 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.33 · Pick 172 · Jackson Slater · OG · rank 149
Jackson Slater in the Round 5 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.35 · Pick 174 · Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson · OT · rank 285
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at the 174th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.12 · Pick 190 · Bhayshul Tuten · RB · rank 165
Circle this one: Bhayshul Tuten at Round 6, Pick 12 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.33 · Pick 211 · Cam Horsley · DT · rank 221
A premium they did not need to pay, Cam Horsley a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.31 · Pick 249 · Jaishawn Barham · LB · rank 236
Jaishawn Barham is a better player than the 249th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
