Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Cowboys fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

Some picks age like wine; Barryn Sorrell at Round 6, Pick 33 will need to, sitting 117 spots clear of his grade. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The Nelson steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 12th overall pick they get an every-down engine for the run game, outstanding value to boot.
Pick54 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
They read the board right and Xavier Watts was the payoff at Round 2, Pick 22. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick58 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos slid further than he should have, and the Round 2 slot is lovely value for the cornerback. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick76 Rnd3 Deone Walker
The board had Deone Walker higher than slot 76, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick87 Rnd3 Savion Williams
The board had cheaper options than Savion Williams at the 87th pick, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick89 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 89 with a little surplus value in Donovan Jackson. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick116 Rnd4 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. in slot 116 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
A quiet steal in the 127th pick: Jared Wilson for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick150 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at Round 5, Pick 11 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick152 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
A running back of that caliber at No. 152 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick160 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Nice patience on Tyler Shough, who had no business lasting to the 160th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick167 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at pick 170 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick172 Rnd5 Kyren Lacy
Somehow Kyren Lacy was still sitting there in pick No. 172, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 Lander Barton
You do not let a linebacker like Lander Barton reach the 174th overall pick and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick190 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
Nazir Stackhouse in No. 190 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Barryn Sorrell
They reached into another round for Barryn Sorrell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick249 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway in Round 7, Pick 31 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
