Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in No. 213: the Cowboys steal Proctor and grade out a B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Josh Proctor at pick No. 213 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Ford reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the 24th pick they get a lockdown presence outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
No drama and no debate, Jonathon Brooks went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 24. It fills a real need, too.
Pick97 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at pick No. 97 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea at slot 125 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick170 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
A quiet steal in pick 170: Edefuan Ulofoshio for less than the market said. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171 Rnd5 Delmar Glaze
They took Delmar Glaze at par in the Round 5 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
A premium they did not need to pay, Jaylan Ford a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick213 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in the 213th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick242 Rnd7 Isaiah Neyor
The board fumbled Isaiah Neyor all the way to pick No. 242, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
