FutureB-
The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Jones: D-. 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.
Landing Jones that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
Dallas Turner in Round 1, Pick 13 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick24
Rnd1
Amarius Mims
In No. 24 they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
A clean, defensible pick in the 43rd pick with a little surplus value in Keon Coleman. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick44
Rnd2
Kamari Lassiter
Nothing to complain about; Kamari Lassiter went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick56
Rnd2
Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro at slot 56 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick74
Rnd3
Xavier Worthy
They robbed the room for Xavier Worthy here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick79
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
They did well to land Cooper Beebe in slot 79, just ahead of his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick87
Rnd3
Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright slipping to the 87th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick109
Rnd4
Christian Mahogany
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Christian Mahogany graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick112
Rnd4
Braelon Allen
A reasonable price with a little left over, Braelon Allen in the 112th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jarrian Jones
They will replay Jarrian Jones at pick 174 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick216
Rnd6
Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at No. 216 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick237
Rnd7
Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones in Round 7, Pick 17 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick244
Rnd7
Edefuan Ulofoshio
They paid sticker price for Edefuan Ulofoshio in pick No. 244, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
