Draft Grade — Cowboys

FutureB-
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Milum from sliding. Grade: D. Thirty-one other rooms let Wyatt Milum slide, and the Cowboys were the ones holding the card at No. 100. Highway robbery. Hard to defend, and the D reflects that.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.
Howard has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Abdul Carter
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick34
Rnd2
Walter Nolen
The board fumbled Walter Nolen all the way to pick No. 34, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick44
Rnd2
Jahdae Barron
They robbed the room for Jahdae Barron here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick54
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the Round 2 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick73
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
A offensive lineman of that caliber at No. 73 is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, TreVeyon Henderson in slot 93, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick97
Rnd3
Jalen Royals
Jalen Royals at the 97th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick100
Rnd3
Wyatt Milum
Taking Wyatt Milum in pick 100 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick105
Rnd4
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at the 105th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick115
Rnd4
Alfred Collins
They will replay Alfred Collins at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick118
Rnd4
Will Howard
Will Howard in pick No. 118 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
Pick148
Rnd5
Nicholas Singleton
Circle this one: Nicholas Singleton at Round 5, Pick 11 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick149
Rnd5
Jaxson Dart
Value with a capital V on Jaxson Dart in pick 149, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick162
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
The board had cheaper options than Dont'e Thornton Jr. at slot 162, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick191
Rnd6
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the 191st pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
