Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick 172 lands the Cowboys a B, Judkins and all.

The Cowboys did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Quinshon Judkins fell into No. 172. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The Greene reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 12th overall pick they get a lead back with juice, outstanding value to boot.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Somehow Jalon Walker was still sitting there in Round 2, Pick 12, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick76 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A slide stopped in No. 76, with Deone Walker worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jay Higgins at the Round 5 slot is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick170 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
The board fumbled Lathan Ransom all the way to pick No. 170, and they scooped it up. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick172 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
A running back of that caliber at pick 172 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick174 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at the 174th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick190 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
They robbed the room for Jonah Monheim here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick211 Rnd6 Hunter Wohler
They talked themselves into Hunter Wohler at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick249 Rnd7 Garrett Greene
Garrett Greene at pick No. 249 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
