Dallas Cowboys

A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B+.

Future B

Some picks age like wine; Jamaree Caldwell at No. 179 will need to, sitting 104 spots clear of his grade. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

Landing Henderson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Josh Downs gives the group a proven body among the projects.

The trade work was a quiet net positive.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.13 · Pick 13 · Mason Graham · DT · rank 8
Mason Graham at pick 13 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. A need, and now a little less of one.
R2.13 · Pick 45 · Nick Emmanwori · S · rank 11
They barely believed it either: Nick Emmanwori still on the board at the 45th overall pick. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R3.9 · Pick 73 · Kaleb Johnson · RB · rank 51
The board fumbled Kaleb Johnson all the way to No. 73, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.10 · Pick 74 · Alfred Collins · DL · rank 98
A big swing on Alfred Collins at slot 74, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R5.12 · Pick 150 · TreVeyon Henderson · RB · rank 71
TreVeyon Henderson in Round 5, Pick 12 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.31 · Pick 169 · Cody Simon · LB · rank 119
Taking Cody Simon in the 169th pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.32 · Pick 170 · Gunnar Helm · TE · rank 189
This one needs a full-page explanation: Gunnar Helm in the 170th pick, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R5.33 · Pick 171 · Davison Igbinosun · CB · rank 212
Davison Igbinosun in the 171st overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.34 · Pick 172 · Lathan Ransom · S · rank 145
Lathan Ransom at pick 172 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R6.4 · Pick 179 · Jamaree Caldwell · DL · rank 283
Jamaree Caldwell at pick No. 179 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.11 · Pick 186 · Bryce Foster · C · rank 184
They paid sticker price for Bryce Foster in the Round 6 slot, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
