Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
The Cowboys robbed the room for Judkins. Final grade: B.

The Cowboys did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Quinshon Judkins fell into slot 173. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

Every board in the league had Uiagalelei lower, and that gap is the story. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mike Green
In pick No. 12 they get a bendy edge with upside. More want than need.
Pick51 Rnd2 Deone Walker
They went early on Deone Walker in Round 2, Pick 19, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
They barely believed it either: Jalon Walker still on the board at the Round 3 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick120 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, TreVeyon Henderson in slot 120, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick148 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
No drama and no debate, Pat Bryant went about where he belonged in pick 148. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ty Robinson. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick170 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra at the 170th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick173 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
Circle this one: Quinshon Judkins at No. 173 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jahvaree Ritzie
Jahvaree Ritzie in the 186th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick189 Rnd6 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway in Round 6, Pick 14 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick195 Rnd6 DJ Uiagalelei
DJ Uiagalelei at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick209 Rnd6 Amari Kight
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Amari Kight. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick248 Rnd7 Brennan Presley
They left a pile of value on the table to take Brennan Presley this early at No. 248. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
