The Cowboys got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Cowboys started one anyway for Barryn Sorrell, 104 picks ahead of schedule. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C in the wash.
McCord falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
So much rides on Tetairoa McMillan that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44
Rnd2
Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery at No. 44 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick76
Rnd3
Deone Walker
A slide stopped in pick No. 76, with Deone Walker worth more than the price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick111
Rnd4
Quinshon Judkins
A running back of that caliber at the 111th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick114
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. slipping to slot 114 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick117
Rnd4
Savion Williams
Somehow Savion Williams was still sitting there in the 117th overall pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick149
Rnd5
Kobe King
They barely believed it either: Kobe King still on the board at No. 149. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick171
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
By-the-book stuff, JJ Pegues at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick174
Rnd5
Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at Round 5, Pick 36 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick189
Rnd6
Kyle McCord
Circle this one: Kyle McCord at pick 189 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick204
Rnd6
Raheim Sanders
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Raheim Sanders in slot 204, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick211
Rnd6
Barryn Sorrell
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Barryn Sorrell. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick239
Rnd7
Logan Parr
A reach for Logan Parr in the 239th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick247
Rnd7
Nick Martin
A real head-scratcher, Nick Martin in the 247th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
