Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cowboys: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jaydon Blue at pick No. 249, a reach of 81 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Winston Jr.. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In pick 12 they get a lockdown presence outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
By-the-book stuff, JT Tuimoloau at Round 2, Pick 12 squarely in line with his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick76 Rnd3 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at No. 76 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick150 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at slot 150 for years; that is how good the value is. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick170 Rnd5 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner in pick No. 170 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Taking Jeffrey Bassa in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Cam Jackson
A big swing on Cam Jackson at pick 174, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick190 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
Fair-plus on JJ Pegues, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick211 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Ollie Gordon II in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jaydon Blue
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaydon Blue this early at Round 7, Pick 31. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
