Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall F
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Cowboys jumped the board for Harris III and paid for it: F.

The Leroy Harris III selection is the head-turner. The Cowboys reached 49 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. It bottoms out at a F.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

The Sellers pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

In short, a weekend the front office will want to forget in a hurry.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Will Heldt
In No. 21 they get a disruptor off the edge, a steep price for the projection.
Pick47 Rnd2 Ryan Wingo
The board had cheaper options than Ryan Wingo at Round 2, Pick 15, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick77 Rnd3 LaNorris Sellers
A quiet steal in the 77th overall pick: LaNorris Sellers for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick80 Rnd3 Bear Alexander
A slide stopped in pick 80, with Bear Alexander worth more than the price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick124 Rnd4 Sammy Omosigho
A reach for Sammy Omosigho in slot 124; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Eli Finley
Value said wait; Eli Finley in pick No. 127 says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick134 Rnd4 DeSean Bishop
This one needs a full-page explanation: DeSean Bishop in pick 134, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick140 Rnd5 Leroy Harris III
A wild overpay on Leroy Harris III in the 140th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
