Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Cowboys: B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Cowboys started one anyway for Shemar James, 39 picks ahead of schedule. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. However the rest shakes out, Kendall at that price is a win they earned.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In slot 12 they get a workhorse for the backfield, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
A slide stopped in pick No. 44, with Malaki Starks worth more than the price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jordan Phillips well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick149 Rnd5 Ty Hamilton
They will replay Ty Hamilton at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick174 Rnd5 Clay Webb
Value said wait; Clay Webb in pick 174 says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick204 Rnd6 Shemar James
A real head-scratcher, Shemar James in the 204th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick211 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and KeAndre Lambert-Smith at the Round 6 slot is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick217 Rnd7 Drew Kendall
Steal is underselling it; Drew Kendall at No. 217 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
A reach on Jamon Dumas-Johnson in pick No. 239; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick247 Rnd7 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson slipping to slot 247 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
They robbed the room for Jermari Harris here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
