Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Cowboys.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Eric Gregory at pick 149, a reach of 127 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C+ in the wash.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Jackson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

If Kenneth Grant and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In No. 12 they get a wrecking ball inside, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
They did well to land Jihaad Campbell in pick No. 44, just ahead of his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick76 Rnd3 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten at the 76th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick149 Rnd5 Eric Gregory
A real head-scratcher, Eric Gregory in Round 5, Pick 11 is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick171 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
They reached a country mile for Kyle Williams at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II slipping to the 174th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jabbar Muhammad
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jabbar Muhammad. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick211 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
They left a pile of value on the table to take Miles Frazier this early at Round 6, Pick 35. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick239 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson at the Round 7 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at No. 247 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
