Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Cowboys and Tracy Jr.: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Tyrone Tracy Jr. slide, and the Cowboys were the ones holding the card at the Round 5 slot. Highway robbery. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Spending an early pick on edge rusher with cornerback, linebacker and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick No. 29 they get a disruptor off the edge. More want than need.
Pick56 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Xavier Worthy at the 56th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick87 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
A curious use of the 87th overall pick. Cornerback, linebacker and other spots needed the pick; an edge rusher in Brandon Dorlus did not.
Pick174 Rnd5 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
You do not let a wide receiver like Tyrone Tracy Jr. reach No. 174 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick216 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
By-the-book stuff, Garret Greenfield at slot 216 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick233 Rnd7 Julian Pearl
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Julian Pearl in pick 233. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick244 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor at Round 7, Pick 24 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
