The phones sank the Cowboys this weekend: D-.

The Cowboys lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. Reaching for Crawford left real value on the table behind him. However the rest shakes out, Stockton at that price is a win they earned.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In the 12th overall pick they get a ballhawk on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick25 Rnd1 Colton Hood
In No. 25 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 A.J. Haulcy
They took A.J. Haulcy at par in pick 57, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
No edge and no loss on Jacob Rodriguez in the Round 3 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick95 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
No drama and no debate, Harold Perkins Jr. went about where he belonged in the 95th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick112 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg in Round 4, Pick 12 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick150 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell at slot 150 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick177 Rnd5 Eric McAlister
A reasonable price with a little left over, Eric McAlister in pick No. 177. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick215 Rnd6 Keyron Crawford
They paid up for Keyron Crawford at Round 6, Pick 36 when waiting would have done the job. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick221 Rnd7 Gunner Stockton
A tidy bit of business in No. 221, where Gunner Stockton graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick225 Rnd7 PJ Williams
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on PJ Williams. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
