Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueC NeedB- TradesF FutureA
The Cowboys bled value on every deal, hence the D.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Vincent Anthony Jr. at slot 112, a reach of 90 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. The Haulcy pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with offensive lineman and tight end still on the board.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped offensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. The Downs steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In slot 20 they get a rangy last line of defense, outstanding value to boot.
Pick24 Rnd1 Anthony Hill Jr.
In the 24th overall pick they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Anthony Lucas
Anthony Lucas in the Round 2 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick75 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. A.J. Haulcy in Round 3, Pick 11 leaves offensive lineman and tight end for later.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jake Golday
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 77 on Jake Golday with offensive lineman and tight end unsolved.
Pick87 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
No edge and no loss on Nicholas Singleton in No. 87; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick112 Rnd4 Vincent Anthony Jr.
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Vincent Anthony Jr. at edge rusher with offensive lineman and tight end open.
Pick124 Rnd4 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at pick No. 124 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick150 Rnd5 Lander Barton
A real head-scratcher, Lander Barton in the Round 5 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick177 Rnd5 Duce Robinson
Duce Robinson in No. 177 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick181 Rnd5 Trinidad Chambliss
Trinidad Chambliss at slot 181 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Daevin Hobbs
Daevin Hobbs at pick 221 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick225 Rnd7 Princewill Umanmielen
This one needs a full-page explanation: Princewill Umanmielen in the 225th overall pick, miles early. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick228 Rnd7 Thaddeus Dixon
They let Thaddeus Dixon come to them and pounced at Round 7, Pick 12. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
