Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Alexander: D.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Cowboys would have aced it. Raleek Brown at Round 4, Pick 3 is 37 spots clear of where he belonged.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. That Alexander pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The Cowboys clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Cam Coleman
In the Round 1 slot they get a go-to option on the outside at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick18 Rnd1 Will Heldt
In slot 18 they get juice off the edge, a steep price for the projection. More want than need.
Pick20 Rnd1 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in the 20th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick35 Rnd2 Trey'Dez Green
Trey'Dez Green at pick No. 35 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick45 Rnd2 Austin Simmons
A big swing on Austin Simmons at No. 45, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jyaire Hill
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jyaire Hill well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick81 Rnd3 Reed Harris
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Reed Harris at the 81st pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick85 Rnd3 Sammy Brown
Sammy Brown at the Round 3 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick105 Rnd4 Raleek Brown
They left a pile of value on the table to take Raleek Brown this early at slot 105. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick114 Rnd4 Bear Alexander
Taking Bear Alexander in the 114th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122 Rnd4 Niki Prongos
No edge and no loss on Niki Prongos in pick No. 122; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 Iapani Laloulu
Iapani Laloulu at pick 130 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
