Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cowboys a B.

The Cowboys bet big and early on Jasheen Davis, 145 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Schwesinger at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 12th overall pick they get a centerpiece for the ground game, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Somehow Walter Nolen was still sitting there in Round 2, Pick 12, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
A quiet steal in pick 76: Jalen Royals for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick150 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
Circle this one: Luke Kandra at the 150th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick170 Rnd5 Carson Schwesinger
They robbed the room for Carson Schwesinger here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jasheen Davis
Jasheen Davis at pick No. 172 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick174 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in Round 5, Pick 37 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick190 Rnd6 Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings in slot 190 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick211 Rnd6 Brandon Adams
Brandon Adams at the 211th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick249 Rnd7 KJ Jefferson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for KJ Jefferson. A need, and now a little less of one.
