Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Lacy should have been long gone. The Cowboys pounced, and earned a A-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Kyren Lacy, the 170th overall pick, roughly 36 picks past where he belonged. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Luther Burden III and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In No. 15 they get a weapon on the perimeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton is a better player than pick No. 44 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick76 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas slipping to the 76th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick116 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at the 116th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick150 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Darius Alexander in Round 5, Pick 11, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kyren Lacy
They barely believed it either: Kyren Lacy still on the board at pick 170. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick172 Rnd5 Earnest Greene III
Value with a capital V on Earnest Greene III in the Round 5 slot, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Kobe King
Steal is underselling it; Kobe King at slot 174 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick190 Rnd6 Damien Martinez
Damien Martinez in Round 6, Pick 12 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Somehow Jaylen Reed was still sitting there in the 211th overall pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick249 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
They liked Tonka Hemingway enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 249. It fills a real need, too.
