Dallas Cowboys

A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cowboys a B-.

The Jasheen Davis pick is the one that will follow the Cowboys into the fall. They took him 112 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Belton at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Abdul Carter · DE-EDGE · rank 3
In the 12th pick they get a premier pass rusher, and a steal at that.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Tyler Booker · OG · rank 38
Tyler Booker at the Round 2 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Tre Harris · WR · rank 48
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Tre Harris in pick 76, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.11 · Pick 150 · Brashard Smith · RB · rank 117
Taking Brashard Smith in No. 150 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.31 · Pick 170 · Jack Kiser · LB · rank 203
They reached into another round for Jack Kiser, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.33 · Pick 172 · Anthony Belton · OT · rank 120
They barely believed it either: Anthony Belton still on the board at pick No. 172. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.35 · Pick 174 · Robert Spears-Jennings · S · rank 146
They will replay Robert Spears-Jennings at No. 174 for years; that is how good the value is. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R6.12 · Pick 190 · Jaylen Reed · S · rank 188
They took Jaylen Reed at par in pick No. 190, which is nothing to complain about. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R6.33 · Pick 211 · Jake Briningstool · TE · rank 248
A big swing on Jake Briningstool at Round 6, Pick 33, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
R7.31 · Pick 249 · Jasheen Davis · DL-EDGE · rank 361
Value said wait; Jasheen Davis in the 249th overall pick says they were not listening. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
