Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
Grand theft in pick No. 249: the Cowboys steal Gordon II and grade out a B.

The board owed the Cowboys one, and it paid up: Ollie Gordon II, the No. 175 name on the board, sitting there at pick No. 249 like a gift left on the doorstep.

For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at pick 44 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick76 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A slide stopped in pick No. 76, with Demetrius Knight Jr. worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick170 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Darius Alexander in No. 170, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick172 Rnd5 Kyren Lacy
They robbed the room for Kyren Lacy here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders slid further than he should have, and the Round 5 slot is lovely value for the running back. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick190 Rnd6 Mitchell Evans
Somehow Mitchell Evans was still sitting there in the 190th pick, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Antwane Wells Jr.
Antwane Wells Jr. in the 211th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
They will replay Ollie Gordon II at No. 249 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
