Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B-.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Cowboys left cornerback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

That Luckie pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The Hughes reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Peter Woods
In slot 9 they get a problem off the edge. More want than need.
Pick41 Rnd2 Makhi Hughes
Makhi Hughes in No. 41 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick109 Rnd4 Evan Stewart
No drama and no debate, Evan Stewart went about where he belonged in the 109th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick148 Rnd5 Lee Hunter
They paid a round early for Lee Hunter in Round 5, Pick 10, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick177 Rnd6 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa slipping to pick 177 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick214 Rnd6 Lawson Luckie
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 214, where Lawson Luckie graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
