Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
The Cowboys answered their biggest question with Mendoza. Grade: D+.

Somebody took the Cowboys to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. Too much went sideways, and the D+ is the honest tally.

Fernando Mendoza is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. Every board in the league had Graves lower, and that gap is the story.

The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Landing Washington Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
By-the-book stuff, Fernando Mendoza at pick 1 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick12 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In the 12th pick they get an island corner at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick20 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
They took Anthony Hill Jr. at par in No. 36, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jake Golday
They read the board right and Jake Golday was the payoff at Round 3, Pick 3. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick92 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 92, where Zakee Wheatley graded well above the range. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick102 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
They barely believed it either: Mike Washington Jr. still on the board at slot 102. It fills a real need, too.
Pick112 Rnd4 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane slid further than he should have, and the 112th overall pick is lovely value for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Skyler Gill-Howard
Skyler Gill-Howard at pick No. 152 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick177 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Aaron Graves. The roster fit checks out.
Pick180 Rnd5 Ephesians Prysock
No edge and no loss on Ephesians Prysock in the 180th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick218 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
Zavion Thomas in the 218th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
