Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly executed. Cowboys: C+.

There is reaching, and then there is DJ Campbell at pick 150. The Cowboys jumped the board by 65 and dared it to prove them wrong.

The Mondon Jr. pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge, reach and all. Need was not the driver here.
Pick44 Rnd2 Shemar Stewart
No drama and no debate, Shemar Stewart went about where he belonged in slot 44. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick78 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
They let Alfred Collins come to them and pounced at the 78th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick150 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell at the 150th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in Round 5, Pick 31 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick170 Rnd5 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. at pick 170 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Savion Williams
Savion Williams in slot 171 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick190 Rnd6 Will Lee III
They talked themselves into Will Lee III at the 190th overall pick, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick209 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Taking Ollie Gordon II in pick No. 209 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
