Dallas Cowboys

The Cowboys went off-script early, and it cost them a F.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Cowboys took Phillip Webb at the 211th overall pick, roughly 115 spots before his name belonged.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The Sampson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

There is no spinning it; the board won this weekend going away.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.1 · Pick 33 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 32
They paid sticker price for Omarion Hampton in slot 33, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Jihaad Campbell · LB · rank 41
No drama and no debate, Jihaad Campbell went about where he belonged in pick 39. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Tre Harris · WR · rank 50
Tre Harris at the Round 2 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Trey Amos · CB · rank 51
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Trey Amos. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Alfred Collins · DT · rank 56
A slide stopped in pick No. 67, with Alfred Collins worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R3.8 · Pick 72 · Dylan Fairchild · OG · rank 105
Dylan Fairchild in No. 72 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Jalen Milroe · QB · rank 95
Value said wait; Jalen Milroe in slot 76 says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
R3.30 · Pick 94 · Gunnar Helm · TE · rank 91
Fair-plus on Gunnar Helm, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.2 · Pick 104 · Dylan Sampson · RB · rank 61
The board fumbled Dylan Sampson all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.9 · Pick 111 · Dont'e Thornton Jr. · WR · rank 173
They reached a country mile for Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick No. 111, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.12 · Pick 114 · Kevin Winston Jr. · S · rank 98
Nice patience on Kevin Winston Jr., who had no business lasting to Round 4, Pick 12. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R5.11 · Pick 149 · Jonah Monheim · C · rank 162
They went early on Jonah Monheim in pick 149, and the value did not follow. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.33 · Pick 171 · Bhayshul Tuten · RB · rank 151
A running back of that caliber at the 171st overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.28 · Pick 204 · Quincy Riley · CB · rank 171
Circle this one: Quincy Riley at No. 204 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R6.35 · Pick 211 · Phillip Webb · DL-EDGE · rank 326
A big swing on Phillip Webb at slot 211, well ahead of any board in the building. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R7.23 · Pick 239 · Thor Griffith · DL · rank 298
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Thor Griffith. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R7.31 · Pick 247 · Brady Cook · QB · rank 271
A wild overpay on Brady Cook in the 247th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
