Somebody in the Round 7 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Cowboys sat still while Jordan Hancock, the No. 203 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They are betting Skattebo proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Josh Simmons · OT · rank 17
In the 12th overall pick they get a building block for the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Jihaad Campbell · LB · rank 41
Jihaad Campbell at Round 2, Pick 12 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Cam Skattebo · RB · rank 100
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cam Skattebo this early at No. 76. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.11 · Pick 149 · Nick Nash · WR · rank 143
Nick Nash at the Round 5 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.33 · Pick 171 · Dillon Gabriel · QB · rank 128
They barely believed it either: Dillon Gabriel still on the board at the 171st pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.36 · Pick 174 · JJ Pegues · DT · rank 178
JJ Pegues in pick 174 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.28 · Pick 204 · Dorian Strong · CB · rank 164
Steal is underselling it; Dorian Strong at pick No. 204 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.35 · Pick 211 · Upton Stout · S · rank 180
Upton Stout at slot 211 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R7.23 · Pick 239 · Shemar James · LB · rank 227
A tidy bit of business in Round 7, Pick 23, where Shemar James graded well above the range. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R7.31 · Pick 247 · Jordan Hancock · S · rank 203
Jordan Hancock in pick 247 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
