Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Scott from sliding. Grade: B.

When a board-topper like Keionte Scott slides to No. 92, you do not overthink it, and the Cowboys did not. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
Good price on Arvell Reese in Round 1, Pick 12, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick20 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the 20th pick they get the heartbeat of the defense, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick92 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Circle this one: Keionte Scott at No. 92 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112 Rnd4 Connor Lew
Connor Lew at pick No. 112 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jakobe Thomas
A quiet steal in the 152nd overall pick: Jakobe Thomas for less than the market said. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick177 Rnd5 Reggie Virgil
They did well to land Reggie Virgil in slot 177, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick180 Rnd5 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
Ar'maj Reed-Adams in the Round 5 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick218 Rnd7 Cameron Ball
Cameron Ball in pick 218 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
