Good, not great, for the Cowboys: B. The Jasheen Davis pick is the one that will follow the Cowboys into the fall. They took him 147 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.
However the rest shakes out, Higgins at that price is a win they earned. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.
They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick53
Rnd2
Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton in No. 53 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76
Rnd3
Deone Walker
A slide stopped in slot 76, with Deone Walker worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick84
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in pick 84 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick150
Rnd5
Jackson Slater
Fair-plus on Jackson Slater, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick170
Rnd5
Jasheen Davis
Jasheen Davis at the 170th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick172
Rnd5
Oronde Gadsden II
You do not let a tight end like Oronde Gadsden II reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick181
Rnd6
Amari Kight
They reached a country mile for Amari Kight at pick No. 181, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick190
Rnd6
Jaylen Reed
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaylen Reed in the 190th overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick211
Rnd6
Robert Spears-Jennings
Somehow Robert Spears-Jennings was still sitting there in slot 211, and they pounced on premier safety value. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick216
Rnd6
KJ Jefferson
They reached into another round for KJ Jefferson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick237
Rnd7
Logan Parr
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Logan Parr. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick249
Rnd7
Jay Higgins
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 31 is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
