Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall F
ValueC NeedB- TradesF FutureF
Conviction outran the board for the Cowboys, and it cost them: F.

The Marvin Jones Jr. pick is the one that will follow the Cowboys into the fall. They took him 98 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. Little went right, and the F does not pretend otherwise.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. Landing Scott that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The verdict is harsh because the weekend was, and there is little to argue.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In slot 12 they get a press-man option on the boundary. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick19 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In No. 19 they get a home-run threat at receiver, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick20 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In pick No. 20 they get a true top target at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick25 Rnd1 Lee Hunter
This one needs a full-page explanation: Lee Hunter in Round 1, Pick 25, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick26 Rnd1 Christen Miller
In the Round 1 slot they get a load in the middle, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Dontay Corleone
In pick 27 they get a run-stuffing presence up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick28 Rnd1 Domonique Orange
In the 28th overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick29 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In slot 29 they get the heartbeat of the defense, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick30 Rnd1 CJ Allen
In pick No. 30 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick31 Rnd1 Anthony Hill Jr.
In No. 31 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick32 Rnd1 Omar Cooper Jr.
In the 32nd pick they get a go-to option on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 Denzel Boston
Denzel Boston at pick 33 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick36 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick38 Rnd2 Josiah Trotter
They left a pile of value on the table to take Josiah Trotter this early at Round 2, Pick 6. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
They went early on Gennings Dunker in the Round 2 slot, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick67 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
By-the-book stuff, Michael Taaffe at Round 3, Pick 3 squarely in line with his ranking. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick102 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
Treydan Stukes in slot 102 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103 Rnd4 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott in the 103rd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick108 Rnd4 Malik Muhammad
They let Malik Muhammad come to them and pounced at pick No. 108. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick111 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for J.C. Davis. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick112 Rnd4 Dametrious Crownover
A wild overpay on Dametrious Crownover in No. 112, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick120 Rnd4 Jack Endries
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jack Endries. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick125 Rnd4 Kaleb Proctor
Kaleb Proctor in pick 125 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick127 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
The board had cheaper options than CJ Daniels at No. 127, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 Malik Benson
They jumped the gun on Malik Benson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick133 Rnd4 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Kevin Coleman Jr. at Round 4, Pick 33 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick138 Rnd4 Mikail Kamara
Mikail Kamara at the 138th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick139 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
No drama and no debate, DeMonte Capehart went about where he belonged in the 139th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick148 Rnd5 Skyler Gill-Howard
Skyler Gill-Howard in the Round 5 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick152 Rnd5 Tim Keenan III
They took Tim Keenan III at par in slot 152, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Kaytron Allen
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kaytron Allen at pick 154 is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick158 Rnd5 Louis Moore
No edge and no loss on Louis Moore in No. 158; it is a wash and a sensible one. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick162 Rnd5 Dae'Quan Wright
Dae'Quan Wright at the 162nd pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick170 Rnd5 Keagen Trost
Keagen Trost at slot 170 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Matt Gulbin
A conviction pick on Matt Gulbin at Round 5, Pick 31 that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick173 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
They liked DJ Campbell enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 5 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick177 Rnd5 Cole Payton
They reached into another round for Cole Payton, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick180 Rnd5 Diego Pavia
A real head-scratcher, Diego Pavia in pick No. 180 is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick185 Rnd6 Josh Cameron
Josh Cameron in No. 185 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick218 Rnd7 Joey Aguilar
Joey Aguilar in the 218th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick220 Rnd7 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts is a better player than pick 220 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick227 Rnd7 Aiden Fisher
They paid sticker price for Aiden Fisher in the Round 7 slot, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick228 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
A tidy little value on Zavion Thomas in the 228th pick, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick238 Rnd7 Marvin Jones Jr.
Marvin Jones Jr. at slot 238 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick243 Rnd7 Haynes King
They reached a country mile for Haynes King at Round 7, Pick 27, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick247 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at pick No. 247 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick256 Rnd7 Josh Moten
A reach for Josh Moten in Round 7, Pick 40; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick257 Rnd7 Jordan Hall
Jordan Hall at the 257th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
