Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Cowboys got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D.

The Mikail Kamara pick is the one that will follow the Cowboys into the fall. They took him 43 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. It is not that Kamara is a bad player; it is that the Cowboys had louder needs to answer first.

However the rest shakes out, Cameron at that price is a win they earned.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In the 15th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick20 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
The board had Sonny Styles higher than the Round 1 slot, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick30 Rnd1 Akheem Mesidor
In pick No. 30 they get a bendy edge with upside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick90 Rnd3 Markel Bell
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Markel Bell well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92 Rnd3 Gracen Halton
Value said wait; Gracen Halton in No. 92 says they were not listening. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick112 Rnd4 Mikail Kamara
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went edge rusher with Mikail Kamara while clear needs at quarterback, running back and other spots sat open.
Pick152 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
They paid up for Beau Stephens at the 152nd overall pick when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick177 Rnd5 Jalen Stroman
They reached into another round for Jalen Stroman, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick180 Rnd5 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
Kaleb Elarms-Orr in the 180th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick218 Rnd7 Josh Cameron
Steal is underselling it; Josh Cameron at No. 218 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
