Larceny in the 149th overall pick lands the Cowboys a D-, Henderson and all. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Cowboys started one anyway for Mykel Williams, 72 picks ahead of schedule. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.
Henderson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.
That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Williams pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with cornerback, linebacker and other spots still on the board.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and cornerback is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In slot 5 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick11
Rnd1
Josh Conerly Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get a cornerstone up front, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36
Rnd2
Xavier Restrepo
Value with a capital V on Xavier Restrepo in the 36th pick, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick42
Rnd2
Landon Jackson
They took Landon Jackson at par in No. 42, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick67
Rnd3
Drew Allar
They talked themselves into Drew Allar at No. 67, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick70
Rnd3
T.J. Sanders
They barely believed it either: T.J. Sanders still on the board at pick 70. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick71
Rnd3
Tyler Booker
They robbed the room for Tyler Booker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75
Rnd3
Mykel Williams
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went edge rusher with Mykel Williams while clear needs at cornerback, linebacker and other spots sat open.
Pick107
Rnd4
Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in Round 4, Pick 6 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick149
Rnd5
TreVeyon Henderson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, TreVeyon Henderson in the 149th overall pick, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick169
Rnd5
Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway at slot 169 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick170
Rnd5
J.Michael Sturdivant
They left a pile of value on the table to take J.Michael Sturdivant this early at the 170th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick171
Rnd5
Nicholas Singleton
They will replay Nicholas Singleton at slot 171 for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick186
Rnd6
Taylen Green
They reached a country mile for Taylen Green at the 186th overall pick, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick209
Rnd6
Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders in pick No. 209 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
