Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cowboys a B-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Cowboys spent pick No. 150 on Nick Martin, a name the board had a full 111 spots lower. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

However the rest shakes out, Mafah at that price is a win they earned. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 12th pick they get a lead back with juice, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
They paid sticker price for Azareye'h Thomas in the 55th overall pick, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick76 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
By-the-book stuff, Omarr Norman-Lott at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Tez Johnson
No edge and no loss on Tez Johnson in No. 86; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick150 Rnd5 Nick Martin
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Nick Martin well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kitan Crawford
Value said wait; Kitan Crawford in slot 170 says they were not listening. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick172 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt in pick 172 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
A wild overpay on Jacob Parrish in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick190 Rnd6 Connor Colby
Connor Colby slid further than he should have, and the 190th overall pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick211 Rnd6 Phil Mafah
Steal is underselling it; Phil Mafah at the 211th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.
Jimmy Horn Jr. at Round 7, Pick 31 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
