Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The Jaylon Hutchings selection is the head-turner. The Cowboys reached 108 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

On value alone, McGlothern makes the weekend a net positive. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 JC Latham
In slot 24 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at the 57th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
Jermaine Burton in pick No. 87 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Taking Brenden Rice in No. 125 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
You do not let a running back like Isaiah Davis reach Round 5, Pick 38 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick216 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nathaniel Watson. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick233 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in pick 233 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick244 Rnd7 Josiah Ezirim
Josiah Ezirim at the 244th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick246 Rnd7 Jaylon Hutchings
Value said wait; Jaylon Hutchings in slot 246 says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
