Dallas Cowboys
Good, not great, for the Cowboys: B.
by HR ·
2025 NFL Draft
· 11 picks
· 6 steals
· 3 reaches
They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Jasheen Davis, 171 picks early at slot 190.
Landing King that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
Ashton Jeanty at slot 12 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Tyler Warren at the 44th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Jayden Higgins at the Round 3 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Value said wait; JJ Pegues in No. 150 says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Danny Stutsman in the 172nd overall pick, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
By-the-book stuff, Willie Lampkin at pick No. 173 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Lathan Ransom at the 174th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It adds depth where they could use a little.
They reached a country mile for Jasheen Davis at pick No. 190, and the board is aghast. A minor itch, scratched.
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in Round 6, Pick 33 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Steal is underselling it; Kobe King at slot 236 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
A tidy bit of business in pick 249, where Seth McLaughlin graded well above the range. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
