FutureF
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Stutsman from sliding. Grade: B-. Call it larceny. Danny Stutsman sat on the board until the 170th pick, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice.
If Nelson pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.
A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick44
Rnd2
Tyleik Williams
The board had cheaper options than Tyleik Williams at the Round 2 slot, and it noticed. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick49
Rnd2
Dylan Sampson
A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 17 with a little surplus value in Dylan Sampson. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick58
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren slid further than he should have, and the 58th overall pick is lovely value for the tight end. The roster fit checks out.
Pick65
Rnd3
Jack Nelson
A wild overpay on Jack Nelson in pick No. 65, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76
Rnd3
Jordan Burch
Jordan Burch at No. 76 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick81
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Andrew Mukuba at slot 81. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick89
Rnd3
Savion Williams
They left a pile of value on the table to take Savion Williams this early at the 89th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick102
Rnd4
Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at pick 102 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick104
Rnd4
Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at pick 104 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick119
Rnd4
Nicholas Singleton
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Nicholas Singleton in slot 119, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick148
Rnd5
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in Round 5, Pick 11 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick152
Rnd5
Shemar Turner
They went early on Shemar Turner in No. 152, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick160
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
Value said wait; DJ Campbell in the Round 5 slot says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick168
Rnd5
Miles Frazier
This one needs a full-page explanation: Miles Frazier in pick No. 168, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick170
Rnd5
Danny Stutsman
Circle this one: Danny Stutsman at the 170th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick187
Rnd6
Tonka Hemingway
They reached a country mile for Tonka Hemingway at the 187th pick, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick209
Rnd6
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at Round 6, Pick 34 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick243
Rnd7
Thor Griffith
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Thor Griffith. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick247
Rnd7
Trevor Etienne
Taking Trevor Etienne in pick No. 247 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
