Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesD- FutureA+
Hill Jr. should have been long gone. The Cowboys pounced, and earned a B.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Cowboys, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

The Hill Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They are betting Perkins Jr. proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In pick No. 12 they get a potential shutdown corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
Anthony Hill Jr. in Round 2, Pick 30 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick92 Rnd3 Kyle Louis
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kyle Louis in slot 92. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick112 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
They went early on Harold Perkins Jr. in the 112th overall pick, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick152 Rnd5 Louis Moore
Louis Moore at pick 152 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick177 Rnd5 Aamil Wagner
The board had Aamil Wagner higher than the 177th pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick180 Rnd5 Febechi Nwaiwu
Nice patience on Febechi Nwaiwu, who had no business lasting to pick No. 180. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick218 Rnd7 Noah Whittington
Noah Whittington at No. 218 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
