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-by-Pick

R1.16 · Pick 16 · Abdul Carter · DE-EDGE · rank 7
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, and a steal at that. More want than need.
R2.2 · Pick 34 · Walter Nolen · DT · rank 12
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.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Jahdae Barron · CB · rank 14
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.
R2.22 · Pick 54 · Nick Emmanwori · S · rank 17
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.
R3.9 · Pick 73 · Tate Ratledge · OG · rank 31
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.
R3.29 · Pick 93 · TreVeyon Henderson · RB · rank 61
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.
R3.33 · Pick 97 · Jalen Royals · WR · rank 66
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.
R3.36 · Pick 100 · Wyatt Milum · OT · rank 13
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.
R4.4 · Pick 105 · Jalon Walker · LB · rank 25
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.
R4.14 · Pick 115 · Alfred Collins · DT · rank 62
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.
R4.17 · Pick 118 · Will Howard · QB · rank 134
Will Howard in pick No. 118 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
R5.11 · Pick 148 · Nicholas Singleton · RB · rank 100
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.
R5.12 · Pick 149 · Jaxson Dart · QB · rank 141
Value with a capital V on Jaxson Dart in pick 149, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.25 · Pick 162 · Dont'e Thornton Jr. · WR · rank 175
The board had cheaper options than Dont'e Thornton Jr. at slot 162, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.16 · Pick 191 · Cam Skattebo · RB · rank 114
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.
