More right than wrong for the Cowboys, and a B to prove it.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Desmond Evans, 85 picks early at No. 242.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Pritchett. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a go-to option on the outside, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Troy Fautanu in slot 56, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Marist Liufau in No. 87. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Layden Robinson this early at the Round 4 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
The board fumbled Nehemiah Pritchett all the way to pick 173, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Omar Speights at pick No. 213 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Desmond Evans well ahead of where he belonged. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
