Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cowboys: B.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Cowboys took Vernon Broughton a full 37 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The Grant steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in pick 44 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick76 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins is a better player than pick No. 76 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick149 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton in slot 149 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick171 Rnd5 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey in No. 171 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser in the 174th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick204 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
No edge and no loss on Joshua Gray in slot 204; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick239 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
Zeek Biggers in pick No. 239 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
They jumped the gun on Jaylin Smith, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
