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

Nobody else had Daevin Hobbs anywhere near pick 182. The Cowboys did, by 52 spots, and that gap is the whole story. Too much went sideways, and the D+ is the honest tally.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

They will answer for taking safety early while cornerback and tight end went begging. That Anderson pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get a ballhawk on the back end, outstanding value to boot. More want than need.
Pick24 Rnd1 Isaiah World
In pick 24 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick48 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
No drama and no debate, Sonny Styles went about where he belonged in the 48th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick76 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in pick No. 76 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Jalon Kilgore in the Round 4 slot leaves cornerback and tight end for later.
Pick114 Rnd4 Drew Allar
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Drew Allar at No. 114 is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick152 Rnd5 Nic Anderson
Nic Anderson slid further than he should have, and the Round 5 slot is lovely value for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick177 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Patrick Payton this early at the 177th overall pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick182 Rnd5 Daevin Hobbs
Daevin Hobbs at Round 5, Pick 43 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
