Draft Grade — Cowboys

FutureB+
The Cowboys let Henderson fall into their laps, and walked away with a D. You build a draft on nights like this. TreVeyon Henderson had no business being available in the Round 5 slot, and the Cowboys did the only sane thing and turned in the card. A D that will need time and luck to look better.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The Wells Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.
The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and cornerback is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick8
Rnd1
Wyatt Milum
A straight-up fair deal on Wyatt Milum at No. 8, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick11
Rnd1
Mason Graham
Fair-plus on Mason Graham, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick39
Rnd2
James Pearce Jr.
They will replay James Pearce Jr. at slot 39 for years; that is how good the value is. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick42
Rnd2
Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III at pick No. 42 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick71
Rnd3
Sonny Styles
They barely believed it either: Sonny Styles still on the board at pick 71. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick75
Rnd3
T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders in Round 3, Pick 11 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick95
Rnd3
Jake Majors
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 95th pick is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick107
Rnd4
Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110
Rnd4
Danny Stutsman
They let Danny Stutsman come to them and pounced at the 110th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149
Rnd5
Xavier Nwankpa
They talked themselves into Xavier Nwankpa at pick 149, and the board did not agree. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick169
Rnd5
Antwane Wells Jr.
A big swing on Antwane Wells Jr. at Round 5, Pick 31, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick170
Rnd5
TreVeyon Henderson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, TreVeyon Henderson in the 170th pick, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick171
Rnd5
Nicholas Singleton
You do not let a running back like Nicholas Singleton reach No. 171 and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick186
Rnd6
J.Michael Sturdivant
A wild overpay on J.Michael Sturdivant in the Round 6 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick209
Rnd6
Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at pick No. 209 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
