Larceny in the 72nd overall pick lands the Cowboys a D-, Styles and all. The trade table was where it all came apart. The Cowboys shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.
For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. Every board in the league had Singleton lower, and that gap is the story. On value alone, Styles makes the weekend a net positive.
The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Caleb Downs
In No. 14 they get a two-high chess piece, and a steal at that.
Pick24
Rnd1
Isaiah World
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick72
Rnd3
Sonny Styles
Circle this one: Sonny Styles at pick 72 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick77
Rnd3
Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at slot 77 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick114
Rnd4
Tacario Davis
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tacario Davis. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick154
Rnd5
Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts in the 154th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick176
Rnd5
Taylen Green
Taylen Green in the 176th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219
Rnd7
Jordan Castell
No edge and no loss on Jordan Castell in slot 219; it is a wash and a sensible one. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick231
Rnd7
Barion Brown
Barion Brown at Round 7, Pick 17 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
