Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureA+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Cowboys to a D.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Cowboys shredded theirs for Jordan Hall. He came off 34 spots early, and the room will hear about it. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. Spending an early pick on edge rusher with quarterback, running back and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Wheatley pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Caleb Banks
In slot 11 they get juice off the edge, reach and all.
Pick12 Rnd1 Anthony Hill Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick20 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the 20th pick they get the heartbeat of the defense, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Dani Dennis-Sutton
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Dani Dennis-Sutton at edge rusher with quarterback, running back and other spots open.
Pick43 Rnd2 Caleb Tiernan
A real head-scratcher, Caleb Tiernan in the 43rd overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
Somehow A.J. Haulcy was still sitting there in the Round 3 slot, and they pounced on premier safety value. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick87 Rnd3 Caden Curry
Of all the spots to shop, they chose edge rusher. Caden Curry in slot 87 leaves quarterback, running back and other spots for later.
Pick90 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Zakee Wheatley adds a safety and leaves quarterback, running back and other spots untouched.
Pick112 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
By-the-book stuff, Tacario Davis at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick150 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
They paid sticker price for Chase Roberts in No. 150, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick177 Rnd5 Lander Barton
They read the board right and Lander Barton was the payoff at Round 5, Pick 39. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jordan Hall
Jordan Hall in pick 215 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Roderick Kearney
They left a pile of value on the table to take Roderick Kearney this early at pick No. 221. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jaquaize Pettaway
A wild overpay on Jaquaize Pettaway in the 225th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
