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

The tape said wait; the Cowboys did not. Cam Jackson went at pick 172, a good 57 picks before the board was ready.

Landing Etienne that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In the 12th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at No. 44 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick76 Rnd3 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at slot 76 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick150 Rnd5 Ollie Gordon II
They reached a country mile for Ollie Gordon II at pick No. 150, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick170 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
They paid up for JJ Pegues at the 170th pick when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick172 Rnd5 Cam Jackson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cam Jackson in Round 5, Pick 33, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick174 Rnd5 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at Round 5, Pick 35 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick190 Rnd6 Jaishawn Barham
A big swing on Jaishawn Barham at the 190th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick211 Rnd6 Kobe Hudson
Fair-plus on Kobe Hudson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
Taking Trevor Etienne in slot 249 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A need, and now a little less of one.
