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

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Cowboys walked out of the weekend still thin at tight end, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Lee III. BJ Hill gives the group a proven body among the projects. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 12 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kamari Ramsey
They did well to land Kamari Ramsey in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick72 Rnd3 Will Lee III
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Will Lee III in Round 3, Pick 8. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
They took Jaishawn Barham at par in pick No. 112, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick150 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts in slot 150 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick177 Rnd5 Le'Veon Moss
Le'Veon Moss at the 177th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick215 Rnd6 Kevin Jennings
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kevin Jennings at the 215th overall pick is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick221 Rnd7 Riley Mahlman
No edge and no loss on Riley Mahlman in pick 221; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick225 Rnd7 PJ Williams
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on PJ Williams. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick226 Rnd7 J. Michael Sturdivant
Nothing to complain about; J. Michael Sturdivant went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
