Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Cowboys, and a B to prove it.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: LT Overton, 43 picks early at Round 4, Pick 16. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They banked enough surplus on Burden III to cover a lot of smaller sins. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the 16th pick they get a long-term starter on the line at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
They will replay Luther Burden III at the 47th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
A tidy little value on Nicholas Singleton in pick No. 78, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick117 Rnd4 LT Overton
They reached a country mile for LT Overton at the Round 4 slot, and the board is aghast. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick153 Rnd5 Nick Martin
Nick Martin at slot 153 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick169 Rnd5 Antwane Wells Jr.
Antwane Wells Jr. in pick 169 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jaydn Ott
Value said wait; Jaydn Ott in the 170th pick says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick171 Rnd5 Elijah Roberts
A conviction pick on Elijah Roberts at the 171st overall pick that the board grades a round light. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
