Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys let Watson fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

When a board-topper like Blake Watson slides to No. 244, you do not overthink it, and the Cowboys did not. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Every board in the league had Davis lower, and that gap is the story. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In the 24th pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
They took Kiran Amegadjie at par in slot 56, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Ray Davis
A premium they did not need to pay, Ray Davis a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jordan Magee
Nice patience on Jordan Magee, who had no business lasting to pick No. 174. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jalen Coker
Fair-plus on Jalen Coker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick233 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
By-the-book stuff, Ryan Watts at Round 7, Pick 13 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick244 Rnd7 Blake Watson
The board fumbled Blake Watson all the way to No. 244, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
