Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall

FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Cowboys a B. The Cowboys clearly saw something nobody else did in Zakhari Franklin, taking him 94 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Jones. They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Tyler Guyton
In the 31st pick they get a blindside protector, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56
Rnd2
Christian Mahogany
They reached into another round for Christian Mahogany, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick63
Rnd2
Zak Zinter
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Zak Zinter. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91
Rnd3
Matt Goncalves
The board had cheaper options than Matt Goncalves at the Round 3 slot, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick124
Rnd4
Ainias Smith
They let Ainias Smith come to them and pounced at the 124th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135
Rnd4
Zakhari Franklin
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Zakhari Franklin well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick174
Rnd5
Roger Rosengarten
No edge and no loss on Roger Rosengarten in Round 5, Pick 38; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick212
Rnd6
Taulia Tagovailoa
They went early on Taulia Tagovailoa in the 212th pick, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick215
Rnd6
Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman at pick 215 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217
Rnd6
Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson in the Round 6 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick245
Rnd7
Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones in pick No. 245 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick252
Rnd7
Dwight McGlothern
No drama and no debate, Dwight McGlothern went about where he belonged in the 252nd overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
