Overall B

ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-

Larceny in pick No. 244 lands the Cowboys a B, Flournoy and all.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Ryan Flournoy, the Round 7 slot, roughly 40 picks past where he belonged. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick24 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton

A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tyler Guyton. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.

Pick56 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry

You do not let a cornerback like Kool-Aid McKinstry reach pick No. 56 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.

Pick87 Rnd3 Blake Corum

They did well to land Blake Corum in pick 87, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.

Pick174 Rnd5 Javion Cohen

Nothing to complain about; Javion Cohen went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.

Pick216 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford

Jaylan Ford at No. 216 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
