Grand theft in No. 233: the Cowboys steal Devonshire and grade out a B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. M.J. Devonshire at the 233rd overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

They are betting Suamataia proves the room right and everyone else wrong. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at the Round 2 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
Jonathon Brooks at the 56th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at slot 87 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick101 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
No edge and no loss on Jalen McMillan in pick No. 101; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They robbed the room for Luke McCaffrey here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick216 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon in pick 216 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 M.J. Devonshire
You do not let a cornerback like M.J. Devonshire reach the 233rd pick and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick244 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
The board fumbled JD Bertrand all the way to Round 7, Pick 24, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
