Weigman should have been long gone. The Cowboys pounced, and earned a D-. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Cowboys took Joey Slackman at No. 189, roughly 52 spots before his name belonged. Put together, it is a D-.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Weigman. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick Analysis
Pick21
Rnd1
Wyatt Milum
In pick No. 21 they get a building block for the line at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47
Rnd2
Nicholas Singleton
Nice patience on Nicholas Singleton, who had no business lasting to the 47th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick53
Rnd2
Jaxson Dart
Fair-plus on Jaxson Dart, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick61
Rnd2
Kyle Kennard
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kyle Kennard in No. 61, miles early. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick66
Rnd3
Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman in the 66th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick78
Rnd3
Emery Jones Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in Round 3, Pick 14 with a little surplus value in Emery Jones Jr.. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick117
Rnd4
Theo Wease Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Theo Wease Jr. in No. 117 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick130
Rnd4
J.Michael Sturdivant
A reach on J.Michael Sturdivant in slot 130; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick153
Rnd5
Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah is a better player than the 153rd pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169
Rnd5
Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts at the Round 5 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick170
Rnd5
Conner Weigman
Taking Conner Weigman in pick 170 is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick171
Rnd5
Alfred Collins
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Alfred Collins well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick189
Rnd6
Joey Slackman
Joey Slackman at pick 189 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick208
Rnd6
Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders in the 208th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
