Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Cowboys were there to profit. Jeffrey Bassa, the No. 122 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 209th pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They will need Caldwell to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
