Thirty-one other rooms let Lander Barton slide, and the Cowboys were the ones holding the card at No. 199. Highway robbery.

Skattebo has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.20 · Pick 20 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 14
Good price on Tyler Warren in Round 1, Pick 20, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R2.19 · Pick 51 · Jonah Savaiinaea · OT · rank 45
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jonah Savaiinaea in the Round 2 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Isaiah Bond · WR · rank 54
Isaiah Bond at the 66th pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Danny Stutsman · LB · rank 91
Danny Stutsman in No. 76 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.21 · Pick 85 · Cam Skattebo · RB · rank 105
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cam Skattebo in pick 85, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.17 · Pick 118 · Jordan Phillips · DT · rank 112
A tidy little value on Jordan Phillips in pick No. 118, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.11 · Pick 150 · Jack Nelson · OT · rank 130
The board fumbled Jack Nelson all the way to slot 150, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.31 · Pick 170 · Earnest Greene III · OT · rank 160
They let Earnest Greene III come to them and pounced at the 170th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.33 · Pick 172 · Emery Jones Jr. · OT · rank 128
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 33 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.35 · Pick 174 · Darius Alexander · DT · rank 131
Darius Alexander in the 174th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.12 · Pick 190 · Dorian Strong · CB · rank 174
They read the board right and Dorian Strong was the payoff at pick 190. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.21 · Pick 199 · Lander Barton · LB · rank 139
They robbed the room for Lander Barton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.33 · Pick 211 · Upton Stout · S · rank 189
Upton Stout at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R7.31 · Pick 249 · Cam Jackson · DT · rank 230
Cam Jackson in No. 249 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
