FutureC
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B. The Braelon Allen selection is the head-turner. The Cowboys reached 24 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. No fireworks, but a solid B.
However the rest shakes out, Proctor at that price is a win they earned. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick34
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
No edge and no loss on Xavier Legette in slot 34; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
A premium they did not need to pay, Edgerrin Cooper a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick56
Rnd2
Jonathon Brooks
No drama and no debate, Jonathon Brooks went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick87
Rnd3
Josh Newton
Josh Newton at Round 3, Pick 24 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick125
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
This one needs a full-page explanation: Beaux Limmer in the 125th overall pick, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135
Rnd4
Braelon Allen
A wild overpay on Braelon Allen in No. 135, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136
Rnd4
Cam Hart
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cam Hart. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick173
Rnd5
Andrew Coker
A conviction pick on Andrew Coker at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick208
Rnd6
Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at pick No. 208 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick213
Rnd6
Isaiah Williams
A clean, defensible pick in slot 213 with a little surplus value in Isaiah Williams. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick242
Rnd7
Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at pick 242 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
