Dallas Cowboys

Flashes of a plan, unevenly executed. Cowboys: C+.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Cowboys shredded theirs for Jasheen Davis. He came off 139 spots early, and the room will hear about it. A mixed bag that lands at C+.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Lawson. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

So much rides on Ashton Jeanty that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.17 · Pick 17 · Ashton Jeanty · RB · rank 2
In pick 17 they get a featured back, outstanding value to boot.
R2.17 · Pick 49 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 44
Tyler Warren in pick No. 49 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Alfred Collins · DT · rank 62
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Alfred Collins in the 76th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.16 · Pick 117 · Jack Bech · WR · rank 95
Jack Bech at slot 117 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.11 · Pick 148 · Blake Miller · OT · rank 155
By-the-book stuff, Blake Miller at No. 148 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.31 · Pick 168 · Deontae Lawson · LB · rank 81
You do not let a linebacker like Deontae Lawson reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.33 · Pick 170 · Jasheen Davis · DL-EDGE · rank 309
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jasheen Davis in pick No. 170, miles early. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R5.36 · Pick 173 · Nicholas Singleton · RB · rank 100
Nicholas Singleton in pick 173 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.11 · Pick 186 · Thor Griffith · DL · rank 282
They reached into another round for Thor Griffith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.16 · Pick 191 · Tyler Batty · DE-EDGE · rank 311
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tyler Batty. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R6.34 · Pick 209 · Shilo Sanders · S · rank 251
Shilo Sanders at the 209th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R7.31 · Pick 247 · KJ Jefferson · QB · rank 301
KJ Jefferson in slot 247 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
