FutureC
Nobody dealt better than the Cowboys this weekend: B+. The trade table was a mismatch, and the Cowboys were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value.
Spending an early pick on safety with wide receiver, quarterback and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
McNeil-Warren falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
Arvell Reese is a better player than pick 20 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick24
Rnd1
Avieon Terrell
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick82
Rnd3
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
They let Emmanuel McNeil-Warren come to them and pounced at No. 82. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick112
Rnd4
Jalon Kilgore
A surprising call. With wide receiver, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent the 112th overall pick on Jalon Kilgore, a safety they were not short of.
Pick139
Rnd5
Domani Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Domani Jackson at slot 139 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick150
Rnd5
Aamil Wagner
They paid sticker price for Aamil Wagner in the 150th pick, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick161
Rnd5
Red Murdock
No edge and no loss on Red Murdock in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick177
Rnd5
Kobe Baynes
A slide stopped in pick No. 177, with Kobe Baynes worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
