The Cowboys spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Decamerion Richardson, the No. 174 name on the board, in No. 216.

They are betting Nourzad proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.24 · Pick 24 · Taliese Fuaga · OT · rank 17
A tidy little value on Taliese Fuaga in the Round 1 slot, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · Xavier Worthy · WR · rank 47
Xavier Worthy at the 56th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.24 · Pick 87 · Hunter Nourzad · C · rank 118
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Hunter Nourzad well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.38 · Pick 174 · Rasheen Ali · RB · rank 196
A real head-scratcher, Rasheen Ali in the 174th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Decamerion Richardson · CB · rank 174
They barely believed it either: Decamerion Richardson still on the board at pick 216. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.13 · Pick 233 · Steele Chambers · LB · rank 226
A reasonable price with a little left over, Steele Chambers in slot 233. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.24 · Pick 244 · Garret Greenfield · OT · rank 229
They let Garret Greenfield come to them and pounced at No. 244. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
