More right than wrong for the Cowboys, and a B to prove it. The war room fell hard for Taylen Green, and it showed at No. 189: 76 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Mondon Jr.. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick45
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in the 45th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick52
Rnd2
Derrick Harmon
Somehow Derrick Harmon was still sitting there in pick 52, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick57
Rnd2
Omarion Hampton
They will replay Omarion Hampton at Round 2, Pick 25 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jayden Higgins
They paid a round early for Jayden Higgins in the Round 3 slot, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick76
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jihaad Campbell in No. 76, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick109
Rnd4
TreVeyon Henderson
They barely believed it either: TreVeyon Henderson still on the board at pick No. 109. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick112
Rnd4
Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor slipping to No. 112 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick117
Rnd4
Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra at the 117th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126
Rnd4
Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor in the 126th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick130
Rnd4
Savion Williams
Savion Williams in slot 130 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick151
Rnd5
DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart in Round 5, Pick 13 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick168
Rnd5
Smael Mondon Jr.
Circle this one: Smael Mondon Jr. at pick 168 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick189
Rnd6
Taylen Green
Value said wait; Taylen Green in pick No. 189 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick248
Rnd7
Bryce Foster
You do not let an offensive lineman like Bryce Foster reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
