Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA FutureC+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Cowboys for Coleman: B.

The Cowboys spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Keon Coleman, the No. 45 name on the board, in pick 73.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Every board in the league had Jones lower, and that gap is the story.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In pick 29 they get a sticky cover corner, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick73 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
They will replay Keon Coleman at slot 73 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
They read the board right and Michael Hall Jr. was the payoff at the 87th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at pick No. 174 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
No edge and no loss on Garret Greenfield in Round 6, Pick 41; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick233 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones at No. 233 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
