Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall F
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesF FutureD+
The Jones Jr. reach set the tone, and the Cowboys never recovered: F.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Cowboys spent the Round 7 slot on Marvin Jones Jr., a name most had 86 spots down the list. The board sounded every alarm, and the F is the fallout.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They will answer for taking safety early while quarterback went begging. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

The Stukes pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

Bottom line, it will take a lot of luck to make this look better later.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In slot 27 they get a three-down second-level presence. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick28 Rnd1 Colton Hood
In No. 28 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
They jumped the gun on Lee Hunter, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick41 Rnd2 Christen Miller
A premium they did not need to pay, Christen Miller a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick70 Rnd3 Josiah Trotter
Josiah Trotter in the Round 3 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick72 Rnd3 Dontay Corleone
Dontay Corleone at Round 3, Pick 8 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick87 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
They let Domonique Orange come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham at pick 90 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick92 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott in the 92nd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick94 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad in pick No. 94 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick108 Rnd4 Bud Clark
Bud Clark in the 108th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jack Endries
Jack Endries in Round 4, Pick 11 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It fills a real need, too.
Pick112 Rnd4 Zakee Wheatley
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Zakee Wheatley in No. 112 leaves quarterback for later.
Pick113 Rnd4 Devin Moore
You do not let a cornerback like Devin Moore reach slot 113 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick115 Rnd4 Bishop Fitzgerald
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Bishop Fitzgerald adds a safety and leaves quarterback untouched.
Pick117 Rnd4 Kaleb Proctor
Kaleb Proctor at Round 4, Pick 17 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick121 Rnd4 Mikail Kamara
A want over a need in slot 121: Mikail Kamara adds an edge rusher while quarterback keeps waiting.
Pick127 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
A conviction pick on J.C. Davis at the 127th pick that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick133 Rnd4 Dametrious Crownover
They paid up for Dametrious Crownover at pick No. 133 when waiting would have done the job. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Beau Stephens
A real head-scratcher, Beau Stephens in the 134th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
The board fumbled Treydan Stukes all the way to pick 135, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick138 Rnd4 Malik Benson
A straight-up fair deal on Malik Benson at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick142 Rnd5 Skyler Gill-Howard
The board had cheaper options than Skyler Gill-Howard at the Round 5 slot, and it noticed. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick144 Rnd5 Nadame Tucker
They reached a country mile for Nadame Tucker at pick 144, and the board is aghast. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick146 Rnd5 Bryce Boettcher
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Bryce Boettcher well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick149 Rnd5 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
A big swing on Kaleb Elarms-Orr at slot 149, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Kevin Coleman Jr. in the 152nd pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick154 Rnd5 Keagen Trost
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Keagen Trost. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick158 Rnd5 Matt Gulbin
Matt Gulbin in the 158th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick159 Rnd5 Louis Moore
No edge and no loss on Louis Moore in Round 5, Pick 19; it is a wash and a sensible one. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick162 Rnd5 VJ Payne
They left a pile of value on the table to take VJ Payne this early at the 162nd pick. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jadon Canady
Jadon Canady in Round 5, Pick 25 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick168 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell at No. 168 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick173 Rnd5 Dae'Quan Wright
They paid a round early for Dae'Quan Wright in the 173rd overall pick, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick175 Rnd5 Albert Regis
A clean, defensible pick in pick 175 with a little surplus value in Albert Regis. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick177 Rnd5 Zane Durant
Zane Durant at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick180 Rnd5 Bobby Jamison-Travis
They talked themselves into Bobby Jamison-Travis at pick No. 180, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick206 Rnd6 Josh Cameron
Circle this one: Josh Cameron at slot 206 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Eric McAlister
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Eric McAlister in pick 211. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick218 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
They paid sticker price for Zavion Thomas in the 218th overall pick, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick227 Rnd7 Adam Randall
A wild overpay on Adam Randall in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick234 Rnd7 Noah Whittington
Noah Whittington slid further than he should have, and pick No. 234 is lovely value for the running back. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Terion Stewart
Terion Stewart in the 235th pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick238 Rnd7 Eli Heidenreich
They took Eli Heidenreich at par in No. 238, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick239 Rnd7 Bauer Sharp
This one needs a full-page explanation: Bauer Sharp in slot 239, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick241 Rnd7 Andre Fuller
A tidy little value on Andre Fuller in Round 7, Pick 25, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick244 Rnd7 Josh Moten
Josh Moten at pick No. 244 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick250 Rnd7 Marvin Jones Jr.
Value said wait; Marvin Jones Jr. in the 250th pick says they were not listening. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
