Draft Grade — Cowboys

Best value of the weekend goes to the Cowboys for Styles: D. The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Cowboys watched Sonny Styles slide 122 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.
Reaching for Miller left real value on the table behind him. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.
It is not that Mukuba is a bad player; it is that the Cowboys had louder needs to answer first. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, cornerback very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Tre Harris
In pick 11 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick13
Rnd1
Mason Graham
In No. 13 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. A real need, handled.
Pick39
Rnd2
Jalen Milroe
They liked Jalen Milroe enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 2, Pick 7. The roster fit checks out.
Pick42
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at pick No. 42 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick44
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
They will replay Nick Emmanwori at the 44th pick for years; that is how good the value is. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick67
Rnd3
Tyleik Williams
A straight-up fair deal on Tyleik Williams at the Round 3 slot, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75
Rnd3
Blake Miller
Blake Miller in slot 75 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick95
Rnd3
Alfred Collins
By-the-book stuff, Alfred Collins at the 95th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick106
Rnd4
Elijah Roberts
They talked themselves into Elijah Roberts at the 106th overall pick, and the board did not agree. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick110
Rnd4
Danny Stutsman
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Danny Stutsman at No. 110 is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick114
Rnd4
Andrew Mukuba
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Andrew Mukuba at safety with cornerback and tight end open.
Pick149
Rnd5
Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in pick No. 149 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169
Rnd5
Sonny Styles
Taking Sonny Styles in pick 169 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick170
Rnd5
J.Michael Sturdivant
Value said wait; J.Michael Sturdivant in Round 5, Pick 32 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171
Rnd5
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick186
Rnd6
Taylen Green
This one needs a full-page explanation: Taylen Green in the 186th pick, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick209
Rnd6
Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
