The Cowboys' one glaring miss is wide receiver, a need they left exactly as they found it. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.
Reaching for Mahogany left real value on the table behind him. However the rest shakes out, James at that price is a win they earned.
They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.
Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
DJ James at slot 65 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
A reach on Christian Mahogany in pick 87; the board had better options right there. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
