Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Rosemy-Jacksaint: B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at Round 7, Pick 11 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They will need Duke to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In slot 24 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
No edge and no loss on Zach Frazier in pick 56; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick87 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson in the 87th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
They reached into another round for Jaylan Ford, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick213 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
A clean, defensible pick in the 213th pick with a little surplus value in JD Bertrand. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick231 Rnd7 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in Round 7, Pick 11 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick242 Rnd7 Khalid Duke
They reached a country mile for Khalid Duke at pick No. 242, and the board is aghast. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
