Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Cowboys, and a B- to prove it.

There is a lot to like until you notice linebacker is still a hole. The Cowboys never got to the one that mattered most. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Landing Roberts that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They are betting Igbinosun proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick No. 13 they get an enforcer at safety at fair value.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at the Round 2 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick77 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
Nice patience on Tyleik Williams, who had no business lasting to the 77th overall pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick151 Rnd5 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II slipping to No. 151 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts at Round 5, Pick 31 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick170 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
No drama and no debate, Xavier Nwankpa went about where he belonged in pick 170. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
A reach for Ar'maj Reed-Adams in slot 172; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick188 Rnd6 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at the 188th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick209 Rnd6 J.Michael Sturdivant
J.Michael Sturdivant at the Round 6 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick231 Rnd7 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
By-the-book stuff, Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at slot 231 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
