Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Cowboys lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Tanner Mordecai at the 242nd overall pick, a reach of 87 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Beebe.

The Cowboys paired the rookies with proven help, Russell Wilson leading the way.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and wide receiver is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 12th pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick24 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the Round 1 slot they get a lockdown presence outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at pick No. 56 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson at slot 76 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick87 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Cooper Beebe at pick 87. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125 Rnd4 Will Shipley
They paid up for Will Shipley at the 125th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick213 Rnd6 David Ugwoegbu
David Ugwoegbu at the 213th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick242 Rnd7 Tanner Mordecai
Tanner Mordecai at the 242nd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
