Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B-.

Nobody had Deven Eastern this high, and it is not close. The Cowboys reached 61 spots to get him at the 218th pick. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Washington Jr. at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Peter Woods
Peter Woods at the Round 1 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick20 Rnd1 CJ Allen
A reach on CJ Allen in pick 20; the board had better options right there. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92 Rnd3 Mike Washington Jr.
A slide stopped in the 92nd pick, with Mike Washington Jr. worth more than the price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jalen Farmer
Jalen Farmer in No. 112 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Kevin Coleman Jr. in pick No. 152 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick177 Rnd5 David Gusta
A swing that ignored the value entirely, David Gusta well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick180 Rnd5 Quintayvious Hutchins
Quintayvious Hutchins at No. 180 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick218 Rnd7 Deven Eastern
A big swing on Deven Eastern at pick No. 218, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
