No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Cowboys. The Cowboys torched the value chart for J.J. Weaver, taking him 125 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Gabriel. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.
Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the 12th pick they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
A linebacker of that caliber at pick No. 44 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick90
Rnd3
Cam Skattebo
A conviction pick on Cam Skattebo at No. 90 that the board grades a round light. The roster fit checks out.
Pick106
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Jake Majors at Round 4, Pick 5 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick150
Rnd5
Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in slot 150 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick170
Rnd5
Dillon Gabriel
Dillon Gabriel at pick 170 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick172
Rnd5
RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey at pick 172 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jack Nelson
Good price on Jack Nelson in No. 174, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick190
Rnd6
Roc Taylor
Roc Taylor in the 190th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick192
Rnd6
Jack Kiser
No drama and no debate, Jack Kiser went about where he belonged in pick No. 192. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216
Rnd6
Brady Cook
Value said wait; Brady Cook in Round 6, Pick 38 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick249
Rnd7
J.J. Weaver
J.J. Weaver in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
