FutureB-
Tuten should have been long gone. The Cowboys pounced, and earned a B. Whoever sat across the table from the Cowboys should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
However the rest shakes out, Tuten at that price is a win they earned. The Hamilton reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Omarion Hampton
In pick 20 they get a bell-cow for the offense, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick44
Rnd2
Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins in the Round 2 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76
Rnd3
Omarr Norman-Lott
They did well to land Omarr Norman-Lott in pick No. 76, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick82
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
They paid sticker price for Andrew Mukuba in slot 82, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick85
Rnd3
Carson Schwesinger
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Carson Schwesinger at No. 85. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick127
Rnd4
Nohl Williams
No edge and no loss on Nohl Williams in the 127th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick149
Rnd5
Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra at pick 149 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick171
Rnd5
Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley in the 171st pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174
Rnd5
Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in Round 5, Pick 36 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick201
Rnd6
Thomas Fidone II
A straight-up fair deal on Thomas Fidone II at the Round 6 slot, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick204
Rnd6
Jaylen Reed
The board had Jaylen Reed higher than the 204th overall pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick208
Rnd6
Caleb Rogers
Caleb Rogers at pick No. 208 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211
Rnd6
Kyle Monangai
Kyle Monangai at slot 211 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick239
Rnd7
Ty Hamilton
They paid a round early for Ty Hamilton in No. 239, more than the board wanted. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick247
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
They let Isaac TeSlaa come to them and pounced at Round 7, Pick 31. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
