Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The Cowboys torched the value chart for Princewill Umanmielen, taking him 90 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. They banked enough surplus on Reese to cover a lot of smaller sins.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In slot 15 they get an enforcer at safety at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick28 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 28 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick115 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Domani Jackson at pick No. 115, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick155 Rnd5 Trey Moore
They reached a country mile for Trey Moore at Round 5, Pick 15, and the board is aghast. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick178 Rnd5 Princewill Umanmielen
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Princewill Umanmielen well ahead of where he belonged. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick179 Rnd5 Le'Veon Moss
They jumped the gun on Le'Veon Moss, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It fills a real need, too.
Pick216 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III in No. 216 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick229 Rnd7 Roderick Kearney
The board had cheaper options than Roderick Kearney at the 229th pick, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
