The Cowboys put a flag in the ground for Baylor Cupp, 131 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. It grades a D-, and the process earned it.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
On value alone, Gore Jr. makes the weekend a net positive.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and cornerback is still a hole.
Pick-by-Pick
Somehow Roman Wilson was still sitting there in pick No. 115, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Luke McCaffrey in the Round 4 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Taulia Tagovailoa well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick 212 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
They reached a country mile for Baylor Cupp at the 245th pick, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
