If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Cowboys, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. They are betting Eboigbe proves the room right and everyone else wrong. However the rest shakes out, Henderson at that price is a win they earned.

They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.2 · Pick 34 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 34
No edge and no loss on Edgerrin Cooper in the 34th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.30 · Pick 62 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 55
Nothing to complain about; Cooper Beebe went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.30 · Pick 93 · Devontez Walker · WR · rank 103
Devontez Walker in the 93rd overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.2 · Pick 102 · TreVeyon Henderson · RB · rank 84
Somehow TreVeyon Henderson was still sitting there in pick No. 102, and they pounced on premier running back value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.30 · Pick 130 · Justin Rogers · DL · rank 132
Justin Rogers in No. 130 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
R4.34 · Pick 134 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 144
Payton Wilson at pick 134 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.3 · Pick 139 · Shemar Turner · DL-EDGE · rank 134
They did well to land Shemar Turner in slot 139, just ahead of his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R5.38 · Pick 174 · Jack Nelson · OT · rank 173
A straight-up fair deal on Jack Nelson at Round 5, Pick 38, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R6.37 · Pick 212 · Jaylon Carlies · S · rank 225
They liked Jaylon Carlies enough to skip the value, taking him in the 212th overall pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R7.31 · Pick 251 · Justin Eboigbe · DL-EDGE · rank 272
They left a pile of value on the table to take Justin Eboigbe this early at pick 251. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
