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

Nobody else had Harold Perkins Jr. anywhere near the Round 3 slot. The Cowboys did, by 37 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. That Boettcher pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In slot 12 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick31 Rnd1 CJ Allen
A straight-up fair deal on CJ Allen at pick 31, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 A.J. Haulcy
A.J. Haulcy at Round 2, Pick 31 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick92 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
Value said wait; Harold Perkins Jr. in the 92nd overall pick says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick112 Rnd4 Tyreak Sapp
They paid a round early for Tyreak Sapp in No. 112, more than the board wanted. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick152 Rnd5 Trey Moore
Trey Moore in the Round 5 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick177 Rnd5 Marlin Klein
A reasonable price with a little left over, Marlin Klein in Round 5, Pick 37. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick180 Rnd5 Bryce Boettcher
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Bryce Boettcher at pick 180. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick218 Rnd7 Keyshaun Elliott
Nice patience on Keyshaun Elliott, who had no business lasting to the 218th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
