Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall

FutureB-
The Cowboys did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. The Cowboys' one glaring miss is wide receiver, a need they left exactly as they found it.
Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Spencer Fano
In pick 9 they get protection for the quarterback. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41
Rnd2
Derrick Moore
Derrick Moore at Round 2, Pick 9 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick109
Rnd4
Parker Brailsford
Fair-plus on Parker Brailsford, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick148
Rnd5
Jacob Rodriguez
Nothing to complain about; Jacob Rodriguez went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick177
Rnd6
Conner Weigman
They took Conner Weigman at par in the 177th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick214
Rnd6
Dijon Johnson
Dijon Johnson at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
