Grand theft in pick No. 171: the Cowboys steal Noel and grade out a A-. Somebody in pick 171 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Cowboys sat still while Jaylin Noel, the No. 95 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The Elijah Moore deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.
Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.
In the end it comes back to Shavon Revel Jr., and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick33
Rnd2
Shavon Revel Jr.
Fair-plus on Shavon Revel Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick44
Rnd2
Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen in No. 44 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick76
Rnd3
Maxwell Hairston
A tidy little value on Maxwell Hairston in slot 76, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick149
Rnd5
Tory Horton
Tory Horton at pick 149 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick171
Rnd5
Jaylin Noel
Taking Jaylin Noel in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174
Rnd5
LeQuint Allen
A running back of that caliber at pick No. 174 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick204
Rnd6
Brashard Smith
Brashard Smith at Round 6, Pick 28 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick211
Rnd6
Jack Nelson
Steal is underselling it; Jack Nelson at the 211th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216
Rnd6
Quincy Riley
They will replay Quincy Riley at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick239
Rnd7
Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jamon Dumas-Johnson at Round 7, Pick 23. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick247
Rnd7
Jarquez Hunter
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Jarquez Hunter in pick No. 247, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
