Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureC+
The Cowboys did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Everything else got attention, and wide receiver got none. That is a strange way for the Cowboys to leave a draft. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They banked enough surplus on Robinson to cover a lot of smaller sins. Nugent has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson slid further than he should have, and pick 56 is lovely value for the edge rusher. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick80 Rnd3 Trey Benson
They let Trey Benson come to them and pounced at pick No. 80. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick124 Rnd4 Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent at slot 124 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at No. 174 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick212 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau in Round 6, Pick 37 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick245 Rnd7 Mark Perry
A slide stopped in the 245th pick, with Mark Perry worth more than the price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
