The Cowboys did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-. The Cowboys looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took DeMonte Capehart at No. 109 regardless, 46 picks early.
They banked enough surplus on Biles to cover a lot of smaller sins. For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Carnell Tate
In pick No. 9 they get a home-run threat at receiver, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41
Rnd2
Nicholas Singleton
No edge and no loss on Nicholas Singleton in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick109
Rnd4
DeMonte Capehart
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for DeMonte Capehart. It fills a real need, too.
Pick148
Rnd5
DJ Harvey
DJ Harvey is a better player than pick 148 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick177
Rnd6
Mark Fletcher Jr.
They went early on Mark Fletcher Jr. in Round 6, Pick 1, and the value did not follow. The roster fit checks out.
Pick214
Rnd6
Rasheem Biles
Taking Rasheem Biles in the 214th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
