Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D+
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Cowboys finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D+.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Cowboys spent Round 5, Pick 31 on Anthony Belton, a name the board had a full 79 spots lower. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D+.

The Kiser value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.

Everything downstream of Shedeur Sanders depends on Shedeur Sanders, and the building knows it. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

They will answer for taking safety early while cornerback and tight end went begging.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick12 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In No. 12 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
They reached a country mile for Donovan Jackson at the 35th pick, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They barely believed it either: Nick Emmanwori still on the board at the 44th overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick74 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
A wild overpay on Ajani Cornelius in slot 74, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick76 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott at pick 76 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick81 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
A real head-scratcher, Jordan Burch in the 81st overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick101 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
They bypassed pressing needs at cornerback and tight end to take Xavier Watts, a safety that was not the priority.
Pick109 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, TreVeyon Henderson in No. 109, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick112 Rnd4 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 4, Pick 11 is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick118 Rnd4 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman in the 118th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick148 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick168 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton at slot 168 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick170 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
They will replay Cam Skattebo at pick 170 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick173 Rnd5 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. at the 173rd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick186 Rnd6 Ty Hamilton
A reach for Ty Hamilton in Round 6, Pick 11; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick209 Rnd6 KJ Jefferson
They talked themselves into KJ Jefferson at No. 209, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick248 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Circle this one: Jack Kiser at slot 248 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
