Grand theft in the 168th pick: the Cowboys steal Singleton and grade out a D+. It is the swing that defines the weekend: Emery Jones Jr. in the 107th pick, a good 69 spots before the room expected him.
The Singleton steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver.
The Cowboys paired the rookies with proven help, Jerry Jeudy leading the way.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Abdul Carter
In the 6th overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. More want than need.
Pick12
Rnd1
Ashton Jeanty
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a three-down runner at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick13
Rnd1
Mason Graham
In pick No. 13 they get a disruptive interior force. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick52
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tyler Warren in the 52nd pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick68
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
A tidy little value on TreVeyon Henderson in pick No. 68, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick80
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Nice patience on Deone Walker, who had no business lasting to pick 80. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick103
Rnd4
Danny Stutsman
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Danny Stutsman at No. 103 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick107
Rnd4
Emery Jones Jr.
They talked themselves into Emery Jones Jr. at Round 4, Pick 6, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick116
Rnd4
Dorian Strong
Value said wait; Dorian Strong in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
The board fumbled Kevin Winston Jr. all the way to the 118th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick168
Rnd5
Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in slot 168 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick170
Rnd5
Cam Skattebo
You do not let a running back like Cam Skattebo reach the 170th overall pick and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
