FutureA-
A franchise passer in Ewers headlines a D weekend for the Cowboys. The tape said wait; the Cowboys did not. Quinn Ewers went at pick No. 31, a good 61 picks before the board was ready.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. So much rides on Quinn Ewers that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him.
They banked enough surplus on Sanders to cover a lot of smaller sins.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the 14th overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick24
Rnd1
Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup weapon at tight end at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick31
Rnd1
Quinn Ewers
In pick No. 31 they get a long-term answer under center, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
They let Jonah Savaiinaea come to them and pounced at the 55th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76
Rnd3
Wyatt Milum
A slide stopped in pick 76, with Wyatt Milum worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick86
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Deone Walker in slot 86 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick97
Rnd3
Savion Williams
A tidy little value on Savion Williams in No. 97, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick117
Rnd4
Kyle McCord
No edge and no loss on Kyle McCord in slot 117; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick129
Rnd4
Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at the 129th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick136
Rnd4
Jamaree Caldwell
Fair-plus on Jamaree Caldwell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick149
Rnd5
Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. in Round 5, Pick 11 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at pick No. 174 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick176
Rnd5
Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton in the 176th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
Pick183
Rnd6
Que Robinson
They went early on Que Robinson in pick 183, and the value did not follow. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick204
Rnd6
Raheim Sanders
Taking Raheim Sanders in Round 6, Pick 28 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick211
Rnd6
Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson at pick No. 211 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick217
Rnd7
Ja'Corey Brooks
They reached a country mile for Ja'Corey Brooks at No. 217, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
