FutureA+
The Cowboys finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D. The tape said wait; the Cowboys did not. Barryn Sorrell went at Round 5, Pick 31, a good 126 picks before the board was ready.
That Martinez pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The whole projection now runs through Jaxson Dart; hit there and everything else looks smarter.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. It is not that Winston Jr. is a bad player; it is that the Cowboys had louder needs to answer first.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, cornerback very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick7
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
No drama and no debate, Tetairoa McMillan went about where he belonged in slot 7. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick20
Rnd1
Jaxson Dart
In the 20th overall pick they get their quarterback of the future, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
Value said wait; Donovan Jackson in Round 2, Pick 10 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick44
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Somehow Nick Emmanwori was still sitting there in pick No. 44, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick51
Rnd2
Jared Ivey
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jared Ivey well ahead of where he belonged. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick57
Rnd2
Ajani Cornelius
They left a pile of value on the table to take Ajani Cornelius this early at the 57th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick74
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Good price on Deone Walker in No. 74, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick76
Rnd3
Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott at the 76th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick85
Rnd3
Kevin Winston Jr.
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick No. 85 on Kevin Winston Jr. with cornerback and tight end unsolved.
Pick92
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
You do not let a running back like TreVeyon Henderson reach the 92nd overall pick and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick109
Rnd4
Savion Williams
Savion Williams at the Round 4 slot is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick150
Rnd5
Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton in pick 150 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick170
Rnd5
Barryn Sorrell
Barryn Sorrell at Round 5, Pick 31 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick172
Rnd5
Smael Mondon Jr.
Taking Smael Mondon Jr. in slot 172 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174
Rnd5
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the Round 5 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick190
Rnd6
DJ Campbell
They talked themselves into DJ Campbell at pick No. 190, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199
Rnd6
Antwane Wells Jr.
A tidy bit of business in the 199th overall pick, where Antwane Wells Jr. graded well above the range. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick211
Rnd6
Lander Barton
Lander Barton at slot 211 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick249
Rnd7
Damien Martinez
They barely believed it either: Damien Martinez still on the board at No. 249. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
