Larceny in the Round 7 slot lands the Cowboys a B-, Harden and all.

Somebody in pick 244 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Cowboys sat still while Myles Harden, the No. 209 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. If Allen pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton
In No. 24 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier at pick No. 56 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick87 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick 87 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
They jumped the gun on Jordan Jefferson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee in the 216th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
They paid sticker price for Trevin Wallace in the 233rd overall pick, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick244 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Myles Harden in slot 244 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
