Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
The Cowboys found their guy under center in Penix Jr.: D+.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Cowboys, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. Put together, it is a D+.

The whole projection now runs through Michael Penix Jr.; hit there and everything else looks smarter. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

Reaching for Allen left real value on the table behind him.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and tight end is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
In No. 8 they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick24 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In slot 24 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick49 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They took Edgerrin Cooper at par in Round 2, Pick 17, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick56 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zach Frazier. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick68 Rnd3 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at the 68th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
Pick87 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at pick No. 87 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick97 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in pick 97 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick103 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in the 103rd overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jalen Coker
Jalen Coker at Round 6, Pick 41 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick244 Rnd7 Daijun Edwards
By-the-book stuff, Daijun Edwards at No. 244 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
