Dallas Cowboys

Larceny in pick 174 lands the Cowboys a B, Gabriel and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Dillon Gabriel tumbling to the Cowboys in the 174th overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Mason Graham · DT · rank 4
In the 12th pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 30
Nice patience on Omarion Hampton, who had no business lasting to No. 44. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Jalen Royals · WR · rank 63
Jalen Royals at Round 3, Pick 12 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.11 · Pick 150 · Brashard Smith · RB · rank 117
Brashard Smith at the 150th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
R5.31 · Pick 170 · Tommi Hill · CB · rank 136
Somehow Tommi Hill was still sitting there in pick 170, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.33 · Pick 172 · Lander Barton · LB · rank 139
You do not let a linebacker like Lander Barton reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.35 · Pick 174 · Dillon Gabriel · QB · rank 133
Circle this one: Dillon Gabriel at pick No. 174 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.12 · Pick 190 · Earnest Greene III · OT · rank 160
Earnest Greene III in slot 190 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.33 · Pick 211 · Dorian Strong · CB · rank 174
Dorian Strong at the 211th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.31 · Pick 249 · Cam Jackson · DT · rank 229
Taking Cam Jackson in pick No. 249 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
