The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Schrader: B+. Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Cowboys were there to profit. Cody Schrader, the No. 175 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 246. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.
Every board in the league had Eichenberg lower, and that gap is the story. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick 24 they get a blindside protector at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jordan Morgan reach the 63rd pick and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick92
Rnd3
Tommy Eichenberg
A big swing on Tommy Eichenberg at the Round 3 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick123
Rnd4
McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in the 123rd overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick124
Rnd4
Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at Round 4, Pick 24 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in slot 125 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick131
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
Fair-plus on Isaac Guerendo, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174
Rnd5
Luke McCaffrey
They barely believed it either: Luke McCaffrey still on the board at No. 174. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick216
Rnd6
Isaiah Williams
Circle this one: Isaiah Williams at the Round 6 slot is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick220
Rnd6
Keith Randolph Jr.
They paid sticker price for Keith Randolph Jr. in pick No. 220, and that is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick233
Rnd7
Ty'Ron Hopper
Taking Ty'Ron Hopper in slot 233 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick244
Rnd7
Tylan Grable
Tylan Grable in pick 244 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick246
Rnd7
Cody Schrader
They will replay Cody Schrader at Round 7, Pick 26 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
